The Rose

Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring
Becomes the rose
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
Life is a gift
and you gotta learn to live
It if you believe in love
You gotta learn to give it
Tryin' to find someone
who's kind is hard to do
You want the love
but you really don't know
what to do
You're just afraid of someone
breaking your heart
You never learned to
live you gave up from the start
You felt the pain
but it made you strong
So remember no matter
what you will go on
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
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
in the spring becomes the rose
