《The Roses (jig)》歌词

[00:02:45] Majorie Hill-The Rose

[00:02:45] Some say love it is a river

[00:02:45] That drowns the tender reed

[00:02:45] Some say love it is a razor

[00:02:45] That leaves your soul to bleed

[00:02:45] Some say love it is a hunger

[00:02:45] And endless aching need

[00:02:45] I say love it is a flower

[00:02:45] And you its only seed

[00:02:45] It's the heart afraid of breaking

[00:02:45] That never learns to dance

[00:02:45] It's the dream afraid of waking

[00:02:45] That never takes the chance

[00:02:45] It's the one who won't be taken

[00:02:45] Who can not seem to give

[00:02:45] And the soul afraid of dying

[00:02:45] That never learns to live

[00:02:45] When the night has been too lonely

[00:02:45] And the road has been too long

[00:02:45] And you think that love is only

[00:02:45] For the lucky and the strong

[00:02:45] Just remember in the winter

[00:02:45] Far beneath the bitter snow

[00:02:45] Lies the seed that with the sun's love

[00:02:45] In the spring becomes the rose
