The Rose Lyrics - Nana Mouskouri

Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed 

Some say love, it is 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 & you its only seed 

It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance 

Its 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 & the road has been too long 

And you think that love is only for the lucky & the strong 

Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows 

Lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose
