The Rose

Some say love it is a river that drowns the tender reed
有人說愛是一條河它會淹沒溫柔的蘆草

Some say love it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed
有人說愛是一把刀它教人心靈泣血

Some say love it is a hunger an endless aching need
有人說愛是飢渴一個永遠痛苦的需求

I say love it is a flower and you it’s only seed
而我說愛是一朵花一朵只會根植你心的花　

It’s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance
一個害怕破碎的心不可能學會跳舞

It’s the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
一個害怕清醒的夢不可能把握機會

It’s the one who won’t be taken who cannot seem to give
一個不願付出的人他大概不會給予

And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live
而一個害怕死亡的靈魂是不可能學會生命的真諦

And the night has been too lonely
當夜晚太孤寂

And the road has been too long
當道路太漫長

And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong
而你以為愛只是給那幸運且堅強的人們

Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snow
只要記得在冬天的冰雪深埋著一粒種子

Lies the seed that with the sun’s love in the spring becomes the rose
等待春天的陽光即將變為一朵玫瑰

(Rap)
Life is a gift and you gotta learn to live it if you believe in love
you gotta learn to give it
生命是一個禮物　你必須學會掌握　若你相信愛你必須學會付出

Tryin’ to find someone who’s kind is hard to do
尋覓可愛的人是困難的

You want the love but you really don’t know what to do
你想要愛但實在不知道怎麼做

You’re just afraid of someone breaking your heart
你就是害怕別人使你傷心

You never learned to live you gave up from the start
你一開始就放棄怎能學會生命的真諦

You felt the pain but it made you strong
你感到痛苦但它讓你堅強

So remember no matter what you will go on
所以記得無論如何不要放棄
