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, its 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 When 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 snows Lies the seed that with the sun's love In the spring becomes the rose
想唱straw hat但怎么也唱不出味道，实在来不及学新歌，就唱一首会的老歌。
“The Rose”最初由 Bette Midler 为 1979 年的电影The Rose录制，在片尾字幕下播放。不过，这首歌并不是为电影写的， 是Amanda McBroom 1977-1978年写的一首流行歌曲，并曾在酒吧里演唱，只不过一直没有出名。
我种的玫瑰：
下面是网上美国夏威夷岛的照片。我们全家旅游是去不了海边玩儿的，老婆是不愿意晒，老大是这些年皮肤不能晒，每年都要挑寒冷些的地方去。
《The Rose》 Amanda McBroom
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, its 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
When 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 snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose
