It is a river that drowns the tender reed
Some say love
It is a razon 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 its only seed
It�s the heart, afraud of breaking
That never learns to dance
It�s the dream, afraid of waking
That never takes a 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 far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun�s love
In the spring becomes the rose
