The Fear of You

Nothing scares me more than losing you
But do you think about this as much as I do?

I feel like I have found a diamond in the rough 
But I can never tell if you have had enough
Enough of this
Enough of me
Should I get used to feeling this lonely?

Nothing scares me more than losing you
But do you think about this as much as I do?

I don’t want to be “too much”
So promise me you haven’t had enough
Enough of this
Enough of me
I don’t want to get used to feeling this lonely

Nothing scares me more than losing you
And I fear you don’t think about this as much as I do
