| The Rose Bette Midler Lyrics by: Amanda McBroom |
| I have always loved this song! It was a big hit in the early 80's. The reason it was so special to me is because my Granna's name was Rose. We lost her during the time this song was popular, and it gave me great comfort to know that someday, she will bloom again. 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 end less 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 dyin' 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 snows lies the seed that with the sun's love In the spring becomes The Rose.
