 5   -5   6    6  -6 6 6 -5
Some say love, it is a river
-5     5     5   -5 6   6
That drowns the tender reed
 5    -5   6   6  -6 6  6 -5
Some say love, it is a razor
 -5    5     5    -5   6   6
That leaves your soul to bleed
 6    -6  7     7 -7 7  7  5
Some say love, it is a hunger
-5  6   6    -5 5   -3
An endless, aching need
5  -5  6    6  -6 6  6 -5
I say love, it is a flower
-5   5    5  -5 5  5
And you, its only seed.
 5   -5   6     6 -6  6   6 -5
It’s the heart afraid of breaking
-5    5 5   -5    6   6
That never learns to dance
5    -5   6    6  -6  6  6 -5
It’s the dream afraid of waking
-5    5  5  -5    6    6
That never takes the chance
 6   -6   7   7  -7 7  7  7  5
It’s the one who won’t be taken
-5   6  6  -5    5  -3
Who cannot seem to give
 5  -5   6   6  -6  6   6 -5
And the soul afraid of dying
-5   5  5   -5    5   5
That never learns to live.
 5   -5    6    6   -6  6    6 -5
When the night has been too lonely
-5   5   5    5   -5   6   6
And the road has been too long
 5   -5    6    6    -6   6 6 -5
When you think that love is only
-5   5   5 5  -5   6    6
For the lucky and the strong
 6   -6 7  7  -7  7   7 5
Just remember in the winter
5    -5  6   6  -5 5    -3
Far beneath the bitter snow
 5   -5   6    6    -6   6    6    -5
Lies the seed that with the sun’s love
-5  5    5     -5  6    5    5
In the spring, becomes the rose
