Fear Maybe
Packing up my things
To get to you
But not just to get to you,
To stay
There will be a drawer of my things
At your place
That will be our place
Where we’ll try to make
It our first year
Our first six months
Good luck,
They all say…
If I wasn’t so in love with you
This all might seem crazy
If I didn’t need you so bad
I wouldn’t have chosen this way
What do I take?
Young confidence
Inexperienced love
A lot of trust
You’ve rightfully earned
All my t shirts
Good shoes
To walk with you
Excitement to have you near
And a little fear?
Yeah maybe
If you weren’t everything to me
I could never leave my family
If you didn’t make me laugh
Everytime I had it bad
If I didn’t wanna love on you
When I want so bad to hurt you
Then I guess I would have stayed here…
We will fight
We will quarrel
Not as bad as I thought
But bad enough
You’ll get angry
And I’ll drop tears
And we’ll both
have fear?
Yeah maybe
So young
Don’t know what
In the world we’re doing…
If I could live without you
I would have stayed here
