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