The Rose

　　some say love
　　it is a river
　　that drowns tender reed
　　some say love
　　it is a razor
　　that leaves your soul to bleed
　　some say love
　　it is a hunger,
　　that endless aching need
　　i say love
　　it is a flower
　　and you it's only seed
　　(break)
　　it's the heart afriad of breaking
　　that never learns to dance
　　it's the dream afriad of waking
　　that never takes the chance
　　it's the one who won't be taken
　　who can not seem to give
　　and the soul afraid of dying
　　that never learns to live
　　(break)
　　when the night has been too lonely
　　and the road has been too long
　　and you think
　　that love is not only for the lucky and the strong
　　just remember in the winter
　　far beneath the bitter snow
　　lies the seed
　　that with the sun's love
　　in the spring becomes the rose

        玫瑰

        有人說,愛如河流，來時無情的淹沒柔弱的蘆葦的。
        有人說,愛如利刃，去時只留下你的流血的靈魂。
        有人說,愛是欲望，無法停止心痛伴君一生。
        而我說,愛是花朵，你是唯一能讓她綻放的種子。

        一顆害怕受傷的心，將不再知道跳動的感覺。
        一場害怕醒來的夢，將不再獲得希望的憧憬。
       一個不曾付出的人，也從不曾獲得，他那害怕死亡的靈魂，從不曾活過。

       當夜愈現孤獨，路愈長，
       或許你會覺得，愛是那些幸運兒或者強者的專利。
       但請記住，
       嚴冬中，深雪里的種子，
       它靜靜的等待著陽光，
       當大地回春，它會成為那最美麗的玫瑰。
