Some say love it is a river Some say love it is a river Alguns dizem que o amor é um rio That drowns the tender reed That drowns the tender reed Que afoga a cana sensível Some say love it is a razor Some say love it is a razor Alguns dizem que o amor é uma navalha that leaves your soul to bleed that leaves your soul to bleed Que deixa sua alma sangrar Some say love it is a hunger Some say love it is a hunger Alguns dizem que o amor é uma fome an endless aching need an endless aching need Uma necessidade dolorosa infinita I say love it is a flower I say love it is a flower Eu digo que o amor é uma flor and you it's only seed and you it's only seed E você é apenas a semente It's the heart afraid of breaking It's the heart afraid of breaking É o coração com medo de quebrar that never learns to dance that never learns to dance Que nunca aprende a dançar It's the dream afraid of waking It's the dream afraid of waking É o sonho com medo de acordar that never takes the chance that never takes the chance Que nunca aproveita a chance It's the one who won't be taken It's the one who won't be taken É aquele que não será tomado who cannot seem to give who cannot seem to give Que não consegue dar and the soul afraid of dyin' and the soul afraid of dyin' E a alma com medo de morrer that never learns to live that never learns to live Que nunca aprende a viver When the night has been too lonely When the night has been too lonely Quando a noite tem sido muito solitária and the road has been too long and the road has been too long E a estrada tem sido muito longa and you think that love is only and you think that love is only E você pensa que o amor é apenas for the lucky and the strong for the lucky and the strong Para os sortudos e os fortes Just remember in the winter Just remember in the winter Basta lembrar no inverno far beneath the bitter snows far beneath the bitter snows Muito abaixo das neves amargas lies the seed that with the sun's love lies the seed that with the sun's love Está a semente que com o amor do sol in the spring becomes the rose in the spring becomes the rose Na primavera torna-se a rosa
