What are you listening to in 2023?

The Rose
what's better...the music or the lyric
This is what happens when both come together
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
 

I had the pleasure of meeting this talented lady in the 1970s.

She was quietly singing a song while sat at a table in a cafe. I was at the next table and I told her I liked her song, but I never found out what the song was.
I like Jackie doing this one. 😊
