"The Rose"

This song was dedicated by my friend, the bride whom i attended her wedding 2 weeks ago to her newly-wedded husband's mother. This song is very pleasant to the ears, soothing to your mind and personally, I feel that this song is affecting my emotions when I heard it for the first time.

I really like this song, especially the lyrics (the lyrics are just too meaningful) and I hope you will like it too~:

*This music video is the best I can find. Ignore the 1st few seconds of it ^^.*

Title: The Rose
Singer: Bette Midler

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 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.
