    The Rose"
    (from "The Rose" soundtrack)
    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 snow
    Lies the seed that with the sun's love
    In the spring becomes the rose 🌹

    I was in the club at the US Navy base on Terminal Island in Long Beach, CA, one night when they were doing karaoke. Some folks got up and done some songs, and some were pretty good. There was a black girl named Mary who always hung out on the country music side and all the other girls started asking her to take the stage and she wouldn't do it. They kept on until she finally gave in. I felt so bad for her. I thought she was going to be horrible. She sang The Rose. There were a hundred battle hardened Jar Heads not many years past the Lebanon barracks bombing on their feet with tears in their eyes. Of course, there wasn't a dry eye in the club, my own included. I've never heard anything so beautifully done. There was no reason she couldn't have been a gozillionaire with a voice like that.

    I ws pregnant w/my youngest son when the movis came out. I used to sit by the stereo when this played when he was kicking the tar out of me, and he would settle down. After his birth in Oct. 1980, he would immediately settle down when we played this-if a newborn can love a song -he did. When he was killed at age 17 by a driver running a light, we played it at his wake. I wish I could tell Bette Midler what an enormous effect her one song had on a young boy from the beginning to the end.

    I played trombone for the melody; a karaoke track played the background; i sent the track to my medical school reunion for our 30th reunion...we all sang the words in memory of a few of us...all larger than life characters... that had passed away... no dry eyes... for depths that words can't reach, music is the soul's own speech, thanks Bette Midler and everyone that created this song, Rod Densmore MD

    This is one of my go-to songs that assures me that everything is going to be OK in spite of what's' going on in my life. There's a seed in each one of us that has the ability to bloom into something amazingly beautiful when it's nurtured by love, either self-love or love from others.

    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 cry when I listen to this song, cuz I have seen so much pain in the world. So many People have broken down in front of me and those who didn't I could still feel their pain. It hurts to know that there's so much pain in people's lives and that most of them have no one to really understand their pain. My heart goes out to everyone in pain and I pray that they get strength and courage to face help them out of their pain. I am a healer so I am sensitive, although sensitivity makes you compassionate and compassion gives you strength too . But no matter how strong you are when you see people being lonely and you see voiceless animals and plants being badly treated. I wonder... Is love just a solitaire for human beings ? If there was love, you think we would have been so greedy Lusty and selfish, that we would destroy our own human race and the entire planet? I feel sad looking at the state of this world. May be if we become more kind love will be a different song in the world. 💜 if only, people know, love and the power it has....

    There are some songs that take you to a time and place. Feb. 1980, Life was good, I was 19 , just bought my first nice vehicle, it had a bench seat in front which made it nice for my girlfriend to sit close to me. We where cruising around late one night listening to the radio, and holding hands, this song came on and neither one of us had ever heard it, I turned it up and by the time it got to the third verse I had pulled over to the side of the old country road we were traveling. We looked at each other and said” Who is that!”,wow!...loved that girl, loved that song!....great memories of a time and place!

    This song was played at my beautiful Gran's funeral. That was about 5 years ago but she is still greatly missed and always will be. I love you Gran wherever you are.

    Goodness, I had this played at my mother's funeral service in 2000. She died at age 52 from breast cancer. I did not know so many other people played it for their loved ones also. It's such a gentle, and deeply moving song.

      It's a beautiful song. I just had to learn it on lever harp! I hope I can do it justice!

      Sorry for your loss. Stay strong and cherish the memories that you’ve shared with her eventually one day you will see her again.

    Bette Midler is one of the most spectacular artists of her time. Broadway, or film she’s all heart and that voice.

    I lost my wife last night after having quadruple bypass surgery on January 4th, she was only 63 and we were married 21 years, she was such a beautiful soul that had a lot of health problems, and I will miss her dearly. She loved this song and I will be playing it at her funeral along with Breads everything I own and Emily Linge's version of Angel. I Love her so much and will be missing her every day.

      At 31 I'm the last surviving member of a large family. for all the loved and lost in our lives we may be alone but their memory lives in us and the stories we tell of them. Hail the victorious dead they alone have seen the end to suffering and pain for that we should envy them. Stay strong I won't say it gets easier but eventually the tears of sorrow and the pain of not having them close will be replaced by a smile a fond memory and a real understanding of how to love.
