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