Below are the lyrics to Bette Midler's song the Rose. They are inspiring and thought provoking.
Are there any areas in your life where you are hiding, afraid to live as your heart knows you can?
Some say love, it is a river, that drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor, that leads 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 the 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 be
And the soul afraid of dying, 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 snow
Lies a seed, that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose
Some say love, it is a razor, that leads 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 the 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 be
And the soul afraid of dying, 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 snow
Lies a seed, that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose
Bette Midler/The Rose
