The Rose

I heard this song for the first time on the plane which is the theme song for the
movie April's Bride...I only realise later it was originally sang by Bette Midler, and many artistes had sang this song..in fact I found it had been sang by 8 different artistes. It is a lovely song and I could only find one not sang by Bette Midler but by Emi Fujita, she sang beautifully. The lyrics itself is exceptionally lovely.

Love of such statue and beauty. If you reflect deeper, God made man in His image, if such is the capacity of man's love, we ought reflect the most perfect love God is. Love sacrifices.

Hope you enjoy the song :)

The Rose

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 it's 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 dying
That never learns to live.

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.

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

The Rose - Emi Fujita

Hey got a Chinese translation..pretty cool..

The Rose ──若是爱。

有人说爱是一条河流，
带着甜蜜和苦涩怅然的流向往昔。
有人说爱是一把刃，
会在灵魂上，留下伤口。
有人说爱是需要，
无论何时何地。
我说，爱是一朵花，
而你，是唯一的种子。

心如此易碎，
却从未停歇。
这是一个关于成长的梦，
直到你学会包容和付出。


夜晚总是那么孤独，
这条路一直那么长。
但只要你相信，
爱，是唯一的救赎。
只有经历了痛苦，
才会懂得坚忍和珍惜。

谎言的种子，
会在阳光的照耀下，
成为，下一个春天。
