The Rose

Some say love is a river

That drowns the tender reed

Some say love is a razor

That leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love is a hunger

And it forsaking need

I say love is, it is a flower

And you it's only seed



It's a part of break, of breaking

That never learns to dance

It's a dream afraid of waking

That never takes a chance

It's the one afraid of taking

That never learns to give

And the one afraid of dying

Never learns to live



A friend

Is someone who knows

The song of your heart

And sings it to you

When you

Forget

The words

Attack



When the night has been too lonely

And the road has been too long

And you're thinking love is only

For the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter

The need for bitter snow

There's a seed

That when the sun comes

In the spring becomes the rose
