Some say love it is a river, That drowns the tender reed
                                    G                F                   G          C
Some say love it is a razor, That leaves your soul to bleed

C                Em             Am             F                          G
Some say love it is a hunger, An endless aching need
          C               G                  F           G     C
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 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

       Em                         Am            F                             G
Just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snows
          C                                   G                           F               G              C
Lies the seed. That with the sun's love In the spring Becomes the rose
