The Rose

Album: Portraits: The Best of Amanda McBroom Durasi: 3:19
[00:09.01]Some say love, it is a river
[00:15.13]That drowns the tender reed
[00:22.42]Some say love, it is a razor
[00:29.13]That leaves your soul to bleed
[00:36.31]Some say love, it is a hunger
[00:43.54]An endless, aching need
[00:51.18]I say love, it is a flower
[00:57.60]And you, it's only seed
[01:04.88]It's the heart, afraid of breaking
[01:15.48]That never learns to dance
[01:21.75]It's the dream, afraid of waking
[01:29.44]That never takes the chance
[01:36.49]It's the one who won't be taken
[01:43.64]Who cannot seem to give
[01:50.31]And the soul afraid of dyin'
[01:57.99]That never learns to live
[02:04.45]When the night has been too lonely
[02:15.82]And the road has been too long
[02:23.02]And you think that love is only
[02:30.44]For the lucky and the strong
[02:36.78]Just remember, in the winter
[02:43.34]Far beneath the bitter snows
[02:51.58]Lie the seed, that with the sun's love
[02:58.84]In the spring, becomes the rose
[03:14.94]🎵
