LeAnn Rimes lyrics - The Rose

album: You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs (1997)
genre:

Some say love, it is a river 
That drowns the tender reed 
Some say love, it is a razor 
That leads your soul to bleed  

Some say love, it is a hunger 
An endless, aching need 
I say love, it is a flower 
And you, its 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 

And 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 snow 
Lies a seed, that with the sun's love 
In the spring, becomes the rose
