[00:01.030]Some say love it is a river
[00:08.970]That drowns the tender reed.
[00:16.040]Some say love it is a razor
[00:24.180]That leaves your soul to bleed.
[00:31.280]Some say love it is a hunger
[00:39.280]An endless aching need.
[00:46.340]I say love it is a flower
[00:54.460]And you it's only seed.
[01:00.840]
[01:05.400]It's the heart afraid of breaking
[01:13.380]That never learns to dance.
[01:20.350]It's the dream afraid of waking
[01:28.240]That never takes the chance.
[01:35.430]It's the one who won't be taken
[01:43.370]Who cannot seem to give,
[01:50.710]And the soul afraid of dyin'
[01:58.680]That never learns to live.
[02:06.780]
[02:10.670]When the night has been too lonely
[02:17.790]And the road has been too long,
[02:25.390]And you think that love is only
[02:32.930]For the lucky and the strong,
[02:40.340]Just remember in the winter
[02:47.970]Far beneath the bitter snows
[02:57.650]Lies the seed that with the sun's love
[03:06.280]In the spring becomes the rose.
