I want to be fearless
I want to stand tall
And I want him to say he loves me
And break through my concrete wall

I’ve never known love
I’ve never felt its embrace
It’s never looked me in the eye
And told me that it was okay

They say that sparks fly
The very first time
I wonder what that’s like
I bet it feels nice

You’re not afraid of being vulnerable
Of taking down your concrete walls
And letting everything spill out
And making a mess of it all

But you say it was enchanting
It was like love at first sight
And you spoke of a love story
And a sparkling night

Tell me more of how it feels
Standing on the sort of holy ground
That makes someone fall to their knees
And want to dance around

I want to be fearless
Yeah, I think I’m ready to fall
And take the chance not being caught
Rather than not loving at all
