The Rose (玫瑰)

林憶蓮

Vocal:Sandy Lam/Chyi
discography:Wonderful World (1997)

Some say love it is a river that drowns the tender reed
有人說 愛是條河 容易將脆弱的蘆草淹沒

Some say love it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed
有人說 愛是把刀 會任由你的靈魂淌血

Some say love it is a hunger, an endless aching need
有人說 愛是種饑渴 一種永無止境帶痛的需求

I say love it is a flower
我說 愛是一朵花

And you it's only seed
而你 只是花的種籽

It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance
害怕破碎的心 舞不起來

It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
害怕醒來的夢 不敢冒險

It's the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give
不願吃虧的人 不懂得付出

And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live
憂心死亡的靈魂 不會生活

When the night has been too lonely
當夜顯得寂寞不堪

And the road has been too long
去路顯得無盡漫長

And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong
當你覺得只有幸運者及強者才有幸得到愛

Just remember in the winter
謹記 在嚴寒的冬日裡

Far beneath the bitter snow
酷雪的覆蓋下

Lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose
躺著一粒種籽 一旦春陽臨照 就能幻化成一朵 玫瑰
