Lyrics
0:12Some say love it is a river
0:17That drowns the tender reed
0:24Some say love it is a razor
0:32That leaves your soul to bleed
0:38Some say love it is a hunger
0:46An endless aching need
0:52I say love it is a flower
1:00And you its only seed
1:10It's the heart afraid of breaking
1:18That never learns to dance
1:24It's the dream afraid of waking
1:32That never takes the chance
1:39It's the one who won't be taken
1:47Who cannot seem to give
1:53And the soul afraid of dying
2:01That never learns to live
2:11When the night has been too lonely
2:19And the road has been too long
2:26And you think that love is only
2:33Oh the lucky and the strong
2:40Just remember in the winter
2:48Far beneath the bitter snows
3:04Lies the seed
3:05That with the sun's love
3:09In the spring becomes the rose
Some say love it is a river That drowns the tender reed Some say love it is a razor That leaves your soul to bleed Some say love it is a hunger An endless aching need I say love it is a flower And you its only seed It's the heart afraid of breaking That never learns to dance It's the dream afraid of waking That never takes the chance It's the one who won't be taken Who cannot seem to give And the soul afraid of dying That never learns to live When the night has been too lonely And the road has been too long And you think that love is only Oh the lucky and the strong Just remember in the winter Far beneath the bitter snows Lies the seed That with the sun's love In the spring becomes the rose
