[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
Some say love, it is a hunger
An endless, aching need
I say love it is a flower
And you its only seed

[Verse 3]
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance

[Verse 4]
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

[Verse 4]
And 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

[Verse 5]
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

LeAnn Rimes

Margaret LeAnn Rimes Cibrian (August 28, 1982) is a country singer who uses the stage name LeAnn Rimes. Born in Jackson, Mississippi she started performing at age 7 and had become a country star by age 13. Known for her vocals, many say she sounds a lot like Patsy Cline.

Rimes is a two-time Grammy winner and remains active in music. She’s gone through some troubles in the past few years, perhaps the result of such a young start in the business of music.
