don't scare me, don't scare me

with talk of forever and always, just stay

don't scare me, don't scare me

with words like I love you, they haunt me some days



nobody knows better than me

that love is a fickle friend

who can give you up, give you up, give you up

without whisper or warning

give you up, give you up, give you up

and it scares me, scares me



don't tell me, don't tell me

that you'll take care of me forever and always

don't tempt me, don't tempt me

to trust you, oh how I long to some days



nobody knows better than me

that love is a fickle friend

who can give you up, give you up, give you up

without whisper or warning

give you up, give you up, give you up

and it scares me, scares me



and I would be the first to say

the best-laid plans can fail

I guess it's just like anything

where only time can tell



scare me



nobody knows better than me

that love is a fickle friend

who can give you up, give you up, give you up

without whisper or warning

give you up, give you up, give you up

and it scares me, scares me
