The Rose

最近很迷恋这首英文经典老歌---- The Rose

向来很少听英文歌曲的我，也是因为看了港剧《怒火街头2》才懂得这首歌。
旋律真的很动听，词也很有意思， 真的很好听 =)

THE ROSE -- Bette Midler

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

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

                                                           
                                                           原唱者 ：Bette Midler


凡是都有两面，有好的也有坏的。
悲观的往往都会往坏的那面去思考；乐观的总会把所有事情都往好的一面去推敲。
要怎么判定它是对自己有利抑或是有害，决定权取决于我们自己。

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.



就像玫瑰，虽然茎部总是带有刺，一不小心就会划伤自己的手，
可是当你手握着它时，芬芳的香气、迷人的鲜艳红色，总是令人如痴如醉 ~~~

我想这也是为什么会把 "爱" 和 "玫瑰" 来作比较吧！

It's the heart afraid of breaking, That never learns to dance

It's the dream afraid of waking, That never takes the chance

爱，是不会平白无故的坠落在你面前，

要勇敢的去爱身边的每一个人，不要害怕受到伤害！

倘若我们不去尝试，又怎么知道没结果呢？
