Some say love, [Em] it is a river [G] that [Dm] drowns the [C] tender reed.
Some say love, it [Em] is a razor [Dm] that leaves [Em] your [C] soul to bleed.
Some say [G] love, it is a hunger, [F] an endless aching [G] need.
[C] I say love, it [Em] is a [F#] flower [Dm] and you, [C] it's only seed.
It's the heart, afraid [G] of breaking, [F] that never [C] learns to dance.
It's the dream, afraid [G] of waking, [F] that never [C] takes the chance.
It's [Em] the one who [Am] won't be taken, [F] who can't [G] seem to hear.
[C] And the soul, [G] afraid of dying, [F] that never [C] learns to live.
When the night [G] has been too lonely [F] and the road has [C] been too long.
And you think that [G] love is only for [F] the lucky [C] and the strong.
Just [Em] remember,
[Am] far [C] beneath the [G] bitter snow.
[C] There's the seed, that [G] with the sun's love, in the flames becomes [C] the rose.
