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 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. â€”
