I'm not afraid of you But I fear all you are to say Or all you are not going to say I fear your eyes And I fear your smile But I know I cannot resist you I cannot give you up I fear living with you for fear of Living without you And most of all I fear Not ever being able to fall out Of love with you
I wonder if people would Touch me if they knew the places that My hands have been, what hearts they've Held and crushed and cradled, what words They write when they are lonely And how I am afraid of the spaces between My Own Fingers
I never knew much of love I can't say I've ever been very fond of it But I know that when the sadness became the sea You taught me how to swim And even now when I know you've run out of lifejackets I look for you as I'm drowning Maybe it's because I miss you Or maybe I just have no one else And alone stings worse then the sea
