LeAnne Rimes The Rose lyrics

The Rose
Some say love
It is a river
that drowns the tender reed

Some say love
It is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love
It is a hunger
an endless aching need

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
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies a seed that with the suns love
In the spring becomes the rose
