Conway Twitty – Rose lyrics

Some say love
It is a river
And that it drowns
The tender reed.
And some say love
It's like a razor
And that it leaves
Your soul to bleed.

Some say love
It is a hunger
An endless aching need
I say love
It is a flower
And you
It's only seed

It's the heart
Afraid of breaking
That never
Learns to dance
It's the dream
Afraid of waking
That never
Takes the chance
It's the one
Who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul
Afraid of dyin'
That never
Learns to live

When the night
Has been too lonely
And the road
Has been to long
And you think
That love is only
For the lucky
And the strong
Just remember
In the winter
Far beneath
The bitter snows
Lies the seed
That with the sun's love
In the spring
Becomes the rose
