Lyrics

Afraid

[Verse]

Afraid to tell you how much I care

Afraid I'll need you and you won't be there

I'd love to take you into my heart

But something tells me we would only part

[Chorus]

I loved and lost just one love ago

I paid the cost and it hurt me so

A heart gets careless when vows are made

I want to love you but I'm so afraid

[Chorus]

I loved and lost just one love ago

I paid the cost and it hurt me so

A heart gets careless when vows are made

I want to love you but I'm so afraid
