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 end less aching need
  I say love it is a flower
 and you it's 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 dyin'
           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
           for 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
