Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed 

         C              F           F         F      C
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed 

         Am             F           Dm           F
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need 

         C              F       F        F     C
I say love, it is a flower, and you it's only seed 

         C                F              F      F        C
It's the heart, afraid of breaking, that never learns to dance 

         C                F            F     F         C
It's the dream, afraid of waking, that never takes the chance 

         Am               F          Dm             F
It's the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give 

         C              F           F     F         C
And the soul, afraid of dyin', that never learns to live 

         C                  F
When the night has been too lonely 

        F        F        C
And the road has been too long 

        C                  F            F     F       C
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong 

        Am            F          Dm                F
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows 

         C                   F                  F
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love, in the spring 

F           C
Becomes The Rose
