Intro: A
A E
Some say love, it is a river
D A
That drowns the tender reed
A E
Some say love, it is a razor
D A
That leaves your soul to bleed
C#m F#m
Some say love, it is a hunger
Bm D A
An endless aching need
A E
I say love, it is a flower
D A
And you, it's only seed
A E
It's the heart, afraid of breaking
D A
That never learns to dance
A E
It's the dream, afraid of waking
D A
That never takes the chance
C#m F#m
It's the one who won't be taken
Bm D A
Who cannot seem to give
A E
And the soul, afraid of dying
D A
That never learns to live
A E
When the night has been too lonely
D A
And the road has been too long
A E
And you think that love is only
D A
for the lucky and the strong
C#m F#m
Just remember in the winter
Bm D A
Far beneath the bitter snow
A E
Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
D A
in the spring, becomes the rose
