Song | The Rose |
Artist | Nana Mouskouri |
Album | Why Worry |
[00:07.01] | Some say love it is a river |
[00:14.48] | That drowns the tender reed |
[00:21.58] | Some say love it is a razor |
[00:29.38] | That leaves your soul to bleed |
[00:36.56] | Some say love it is a hunger |
[00:44.63] | An endless, aching need |
[00:51.94] | I say love it is a flower |
[01:00.31] | And you it's only seed |
[01:11.79] | It's the heart afraid of breaking |
[01:18.88] | That never learns to dance |
[01:25.35] | It's the dream afraid of waking |
[01:32.67] | That never takes the chance |
[01:39.11] | It's the one who won't be taken |
[01:46.57] | Who cannot seem to give |
[01:53.19] | And the soul afraid of dying |
[02:00.61] | That never learns to live |
[02:11.22] | When the night has been too lonely |
[02:17.90] | And the road has been too long |
[02:24.41] | And you think that love is only |
[02:31.27] | For the lucky and the strong |
[02:37.96] | Just remember in the winter |
[02:44.90] | Far beneath the bitter snow |
[02:52.19] | Lies the seed that with the sun's love |
[03:01.16] | In the spring, becomes the rose… |
[00:07.01] | Some say love it is a river |
[00:14.48] | That drowns the tender reed |
[00:21.58] | Some say love it is a razor |
