[Verse 1]
C G
Some say love, it is a river,
F G C
That drowns the tender reed
C G
Some say love, it is a razor,
F G C
That leaves your soul to bleed
Em Am
Some say love, it is a hunger,
F Dm7 G
An endless aching need
C G
I say love, it is a flower and
F G C
You its only seed
[Verse 2]
C G
It’s the heart afraid of breaking
F G C
That never learns to dance
C G
It’s the dream afraid of waking
F G C
That never takes the chance
Em Am Am7
It’s the one who won’t be taken
F Dm7 G
Who cannot seem to give
C G
And the soul afraid of dying
F G C
That never learns to live
[Verse 3]
C G
When the night has been too lonely
F G C
And the road has been too long
C G
And you think that love is only
F G C
For the lucky and the strong
Em Am
Just remember in the winter
F G Gsus
Far beneath the bitter snow
C G
Lies the seed that with the sun’s love,
F G C
In the spring becomes the rose
