Some say love, it [Em] is a river that [Dm] drowns [Eb] the [C] tender reed.
Some say love, it is [Em] a razor that [Fm]
leaves [Em] your soul [C] to bleed.
Some say love, it is [G] a hunger, [F]
a sickening [G] need.
[C] It is a, [G]
[Dm] [G] it's only [C] seen.
[C]
It's the heart, afraid [G] of breaking, [F] that never
[G] learns [C] to dance.
It's the dream, afraid [G] of waking, that [F] never
[G] takes [C] the chance.
It's [Bm] the one who [Am] won't be taken,
[C] [F] who can't seem [G] to hear.
The [C] soul, afraid [G] of death, [F] that never learns [C] to live.
When love has been [G] too lonely, and [F]
[G] has been [C] too long.
Then to think, love is [G] only for [F] the weak [C] and the strong.
Just [Em] remember
[Am] winter, far [C] beneath [F] the big, [G] [C]
lies the seed.
That with the sun's love, [F] in the spring,
[G] becomes the [C] rose.
