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
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 can't
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 snow
Lies the seed
that with the
sun's love
in the spring
becomes
the rose
