The Way It Is With Love

Lyrics

Inside of every heart, there is a seed  
My mama watered mine, and raised me to be  
A rose, a rose, or some greater thing  
Mama, you're beautiful to me  
Oh my Daddy, I want you to know  
Your little, baby girl became that rose  
The bloom, the bloom blushed deeper red  
With every drop of sacrifice you bled  
[Chorus:]  
There's no growing without any pain  
There's no flowers without the rain  
We are bound together by blood that's flowing through us  
And that's the way it is with love  
I have a vision, a hope and a dream  
I see a hill, across a healing stream  
Where the Rose arose, to set us free  
And the Cross became a family tree  
[Chorus:]  
Circle of God comes around  
And turns us into special things, somehow  
And one day we'll hold little flowers of our own  
And we'll sacrifice so that they can grow  
[Chorus:]
