Karaoke The Rose Conway Twitty

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 its 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 too 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
