See your smiling face each morning
Watch your tired eyes close at night
Take your hand at the park in the evening
Always hold you tight
Your "man" does none of these things
Has every girl in his sights
Can't even say "I love you"?
He could never treat you right
"He's just scared" you say
"Never been serious before"
So i stand here watching him hurt you
While you says he's the one you adore
But here I've been, all along
thinking about how he doesn't belong
'Cause we've been best friends since before we knew
Of high school trends or the auroras hue
I'll take your hand if you'll have mine
Tell me, who's afraid to love? Not I.

Take your hand at the park in the evening
Always hold you tight
Your "man" does none of these things

He could never treat you right
"He's just scared" you say
"Never been serious before"
So i stand here watching him hurt you
While you says he's the one you adore
But here I've been, all along

'Cause we've been best friends since before we knew
Of high school trends or the auroras hue
I'll take your hand if you'll have mine
Tell me, who's afraid to love? Not I.
