And the soul, that's afraid of dying...

As Desi was driving home from BF at the Furong Pasar -- political placidity ruled the moUrn except for some diehard MCA oldtimers who rued the days Koon Swan was "wrongly charged in Singapore and jailed wrt Pan-El -- a familiar refrain came over the airwaves.

I couldN'T place the song, but hey, the title above was easily recalled -- So Nowadays
one jest Googled slyrics stanza and the above -- presto, "THE ROSE" appears! In the bad olde days the refrain would've kep Desi's mind half-focused on the tasks at hand, and even after 13 battle rounds, I would NOT have found my "rose". So thank me for my sharing', make out dat 20mil, wilya!?

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
