The Rose Teclado

	  A                     E 
Some say love, it is a river 
    D          E      A 
That drowns the tender reed 
                      E 
Some say love, it is a razor 
    D           E       A 
That leaves your soul to bleed 


       F#m            D 
Some say love, it is a hunger 
 Bm             E 
An endless, aching need 
     A             E 
I say love, it is a flower 
   D        E    A 
And you, its only seed 


                        E 
It's the heart, afraid of breaking 
    D     E         A 
That never learns to dance 
                         E 
It's the dream, afraid of waking 
    D     E         A 
That never takes the chance 


       F#m               D 
It's the one who won't be taken 
  Bm              E 
Who cannot seem to give 
       A              E 
And the soul, afraid of dyin' 
    D     E         A 
That never learns to live 


                          E 
When the night has been too lonely 
       D        E        A 
And the road has been too long 
                          E 
And you think that love is only 
       D     E       A 
For the lucky and the strong 


   F#m              D 
Just remember in the winter 
   Bm                 E 
Far beneath the bitter snow 
        A                  E 
Lies the seed that with the sun's love 
      D        E         A 
In the spring becomes the rose
