上个月在上海，和几个认识多年的美丽女生们聊到天亮后，脑海里一直是这瘦歌。上周，和位montreal的美丽姑娘聊了一晚上，又想起了这首。歌词曲子都很美很对(歌词在本篇末尾）。尤其在感情上，既美又对的例子比较罕见吧。也正因此，推荐给大家。

“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.”

其实都对的。什么样的你遇到什么样的ta就会有什么样的比喻。也许我不够好，不会说话，ta更需要会体贴/幽默/经济基础强/年轻/美/会三语的... （你随便填，填不完的）。其实都不是。都不是的。

抬头看。第二个街口转角处，就有个会让觉得自己perfect perfect的ta在向你看过来。你需要做的，只是别低头自责或忙著赶上他人脚步，错过了那个四目相对的一刻。即可。真的无他了。

Bette Midler版本。算是小编偏爱版。大气中不失温柔。玫瑰带刺。恰到好处。

Judy Collins版本。温婉古典。

最近出现频率比较多的是手嶌葵版。很轻，很静。就是口音太调皮了。>_< 其他小编保留意见。

"The Rose"

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 dyin'
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.
