[Cm] Some say [C] love, it [Em] is a river [Dm] that drowns [Eb] the [C] tender reed.
Some say love, it [Em] is a razor [F] that leaves [Em] your soul [C] to bleed.
Some [Em] say love, it [Cm] is a hunger [F] that's aching [G] deep.
I [C] say love, it is a [G] flower [Dm] and [G] it's [C] only seed.
It's the heart [G] afraid of breaking [F] that never [G] [C] learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid [G] 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] The soul afraid [G] of dying [F] that never [G] [C] learns to live.
When the love's [G] been too lonely [F] and the love has [G]
[C] been too long.
Then you think that [G] love's deep for [F] the lucky [G] and [C] the strong.
Just [G] remember [Am]
winter far [F] beneath the [G] bitter snow.
[C] The seed that [G] with the sun's love [F] in the spring [G] becomes [C] the rose.
