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 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 walking
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
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
For beneath the bitter snows
Lies the~ seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose
