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-its 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 the seed that with the sun’s love
In the spring becomes the rose

  1. This is a beautiful song. Sung by Bette Midler in the film, The Rose, which was based I think around the story of her life. You can watch her sing it on YouTube. Do a search for The Rose, Bette Midler.

    Isnt it amazing how the things which are the most simple are so beautiful, such as…this song.

    Thanks for posting it.
