The rose
Laura Wright The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra Lyrics

Some say love it is a river
Love is sometimes described as fluid and powerful, capable of overwhelming and sweeping away anything in its path.

That drowns the tender reed.
It can be so powerful that it can completely submerge something delicate and vulnerable, like a small plant.

Some say love it is a razor
Others see love as something that can cut someone deeply, even to the point of causing great pain and suffering.

That leaves your soul to bleed.
It can cause someone to feel wounded and exposed, as if they are bleeding out their emotions and inner self.

Some say love it is a hunger
Love can be a powerful desire, a craving that cannot be satisfied by anything else.

An endless, aching need
It can be a never-ending longing that becomes a source of constant pain and discomfort.

I say love it is a flower,
The singer sees love as something beautiful and delicate, like a blooming flower.

And you its only seed.
The person being addressed is the one who can make love bloom and grow, just like a seed can give life to a flower.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
Some people are so scared of getting hurt that they never allow themselves to truly love or be loved.

That never learns to dance
These people may feel like they are missing out on the joy and happiness that comes from taking a risk and opening up to love.

It's the dream afraid of waking
Some people may be so afraid of losing something or someone that they refuse to acknowledge or fully enjoy what they have.

That never takes the chance
They may miss out on many opportunities and experiences because of their fear of losing them.

It's the one who won't be taken,
Some people are so guarded and closed off that they won't allow themselves to be vulnerable or let anyone get close to them.

Who cannot seem to give
They may struggle to express their emotions or be giving and kind to others, even if they want to be.

And the soul afraid of dying
Fear of death or loss can prevent someone from truly living and experiencing all the joys and wonders that life has to offer.

That never learns to live.
This fear can paralyze a person and prevent them from fully embracing the present moment and all the possibilities that come with it.

When the night has been too lonely
Sometimes, when someone is feeling isolated and alone, it can seem like love is out of reach and unattainable.

And the road has been too long.
Life can be tough and full of challenges, and it can be easy to lose hope and give up when things get too hard.

And you think that love is only
During hard times, it is common to feel like love is something that only happens to lucky and fortunate people.

For the lucky and the strong.
This reinforces the idea that love is not something that is available to everyone or something that everyone can handle.

Just remember in the winter
Even when things seem bleak and hopeless, it's important to remember that spring and new growth are just around the corner.

Far beneath the bitter snow
Even when the world around us feels cold and unforgiving, there are still things happening beneath the surface that we cannot see.

Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
There is still potential for growth and beauty, even in the darkest and coldest of times.

In the spring, becomes the rose
Just like how a flower can bloom and grow from a seed, love can blossom and grow even from the smallest of beginnings.
