Lyrics
Some say love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor
That 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 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 the seed
That with the sun's love, in the spring
Becomes the rose

OMG!! This is amazing..you should have more views and be famous. I really like your version and I'll ask my guitar teacher to teach me this version if it's ok with you

[JimmyPaigeIsGod36]

Can you post tabs?

[carvetop01]

@JimmyPaigeIsGod36

That's a hard question to answer. I believe you can learn to play anything one measure at a time. Challenging yourself to learn a song above your skill level will raise your skill level every time. It can be frustrating sometimes but just refuse to quit and you will improve rapidly. This in not a difficult piece to learn if you stick with it.

Good luck,

allen

Beautiful!

[SoloGuitarist1]

Oh Yeh, Its all about tone and melody, well done. I had performed this with a female vocalist as a duo. Should have watched the "Fabulus Baker Brothers" first. Had since put this tune aside. But it is a beautiful tune on an acoustic guitar.
