熟悉的旋律，别有一番味道

The Rose 是由Amanda McBroom创作于1978年，由Bette Midler在其领衔主演的《The Rose》(歌声泪痕)中作为片尾曲首唱，Amanda特别为她配的合声。影片推出后，获得了很高的评价，让Bette Midler夺得了该年度最佳流行乐女歌手的格莱美奖，另外，由于演技精湛，她不仅被提名角逐奥斯卡，更夺得最佳女演员和年度最佳新人等两座金球奖。

Bette Midler，一位影歌双栖的女星。擅长演夸张、嬉闹的喜剧，然而只要听过她唱的《The rose》你很难想象这样一位女丑角形象的演员，竟能唱出如此深情动人的歌。

歌词：

Some say love，it is a river 有人说 爱是一条河

That drowns the tender reed 会淹没轻柔的芦苇

Some say love，it is a razor 有人说 爱是一把剃刀

That leaves your soul to bleed 让你的灵魂流血

Some say love it is a hunger 有人说 爱是一种焦渴

An endless aching need 一种无尽的带痛渴求

I say love it is a flower 而我说 爱是一朵花

And you,its only seed 而你 则是唯一的种子

It's the heart afraid of breaking 如果心儿害怕破碎

That never learns to dance 就永远无法学会起舞

It's the dream afraid of waking 如果害怕从美梦中醒来

That never takes the chance 就永远也抓不住机会

It's the one who won't be taken 一个人如果不愿被索取

Who can not seem to give 貌似也不会给予

And the soul afraid of dying 如果灵魂害怕去死

That never learns to live 就永远学不会怎么去活

When the night has been too lonely 当夜晚太过漫长

And the road has been too long 当前路太过遥远

And you think 或者当你认为

That love is only for the lucky and the strong 只有幸运者和强者才有资格得到爱的时候

Just remember in the winter 你要记得

Far beneath the bitter snow 在厚厚的积雪底下

Lies the seed 一颗种子一直都在那里躺着

That with the sun's love 等阳光洒下

In the spring becomes the rose 春天里，它会绽放成最美的玫瑰……
