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 And endless achin need I say love it is a flower And you its only seed Its the heart afraid of breaking That never learns to dance Its the dream afraid of waking That never takes the chance Its the one who wont be taken Who cannot seen to give And the soul afraid of dying That never learns to live When the night has been to lonely And the road has been to long And you think thats love its only For the lucky and the strong Just remember in the winter For beneath the better snows Lies to seed tha with the suns love In the spring becomes the rose
