It Scares Me

It scares me to want you

It scares me to think what could be

The whole thing terrifies me

When I try to pull away

You pull me closer

And make me fall for you more

 

You’re the only one

Who’s looked at me and seen beauty

Who’s wanted me

My past and all

 

You’re the only one

Who’s protected me

Who’s cared for my safety

Who’s cared for me

 

You’re the only one

Who’s shown me that I can love

Who’s shown me that it might just be possible

And that scares me

 

To be vulnerable again

To give you the power to hurt me

 

But I don’t want to be anywhere else

But by your side

Wrapped in your arms

Kissing you

Loving you

And it scares me to think

That I’m in love with you
