Conway Twitty - The Rose lyrics

rate me

Some say love, it is a river<br />

And that it drowns the tender reed<br />

And some say love, it's like a razor<br />

And that it leaves your soul to bleed.<br />

<br />

Some say love, it is a hunger<br />

An endless aching need<br />

I say love, it is a flower<br />

And you, it's only seed.<br />

<br />

It's a heart afraid of breaking<br />

That never learns to dance<br />

It's a dream afraid of waking<br />

That never takes the chance.<br />

<br />

It's the one who won't be taken<br />

Who can not seem to give<br />

And the soul afraid of dying<br />

That never learns to live.<br />

<br />

When the night has been too lonely<br />

And the road has been too long<br />

And you think that love is only<br />

For the lucky and the strong.<br />

<br />

Just remember in the winter<br />

Far beneath the bitter snows<br />

Lies the seed that with the sun's love<br />

In spring becomes the rose...
