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 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 dying
That never
learns to live
And 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 snow
Lies the seed
that with
the sun's love
In the spring
becomes a rose
