I am like a rose

and you open my petals

gentle while we make love

You are the thorn

 belonging to the rose

You leave and like a rose

I fade away and die

Until the next time you call

Then the little rose opens

to you once more

 

I see you from a distance

and I want to ran and hide

Then you hold me

in your arms again

And I can't let you go

out of my sight

I can't live my life

without you my love

                             Like the sea

                      with her waters so blue

                               I am also blue

                      without you here by me

 

Must you leave me

for so long

to weather away this way

Come and nourish

your rose with your love

And touch the lonely rose

who loves you so much

 

You might lose

the rose one day

For love is what

makes the rose go on

So help the little bud

to bloom once more

With your love

so full and strong

For you are all the love

that I need

And my love for you

will never die

Without you there is nothing left

For the lonely rose

will give up and die

 

 

The Rose

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, it's 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
