They all left
All except you
And now
You want to desert me too?

I understand being afraid

Afraid that if you get too close
You’ll destroy everything
That the world will wreak havoc
If you mess one single thing up

You’re afraid of loving me
I’m afraid of loving you

And ever since those feelings
Have risen
You’ve been running
Hiding
From me

But the thing is
You can’t just run
Away from your fears
You must face them

So stop running
Stop hiding
Come back
Please
I need you

I need you so much more
Than you even know
Than you may ever know
Than I ever thought I would

This feeling of love
Is flaming
It’s burning me up

But now we both know
That we love each other
So please tell me
Why are you still running?
