Miedo Al Matrimonio

I fear the plunge, of lifelong commitment 
The pressure to make a decision in a moment
The stress that accompanies the planning 
The worry that I'm not enough understanding 

I worry I'll be overwhelmed by the expectations 
The fear that I'll regret the life I'm selecting 
The thought of the vows, the ring, and the dress 
The idea of giving up my freedom and happiness 

I fear the thought of sharing my life with another 
The thought of never again being a single lover 
The possibility that the love won't stay strong 
The fear of being in a broken home for so long 

I fear the thought of marriage making me old 
The idea that I won't be able to grow and be bold 
The thought of having to forget my dreams 
The fear that I won't be able to break free it seems 

I’m scared of choosing the wrong one
Then making me to always be on the run
I’m scared of disappointing my parents, not going for their choice
I’m scared of not being my future in-laws choice.

But I know my fears are only in my head 
That I'll be able to make it, even if I dread 
The thought of marriage is scary, I know 
But I know I can make it, no matter how
