This Fear




Sometimes late at night I wonder how you feel
Are you as scared as I am that what we have is real
And if it is how do we tell the others in our life
Or do we go on living this separate double life

It�s hard to walk away from the only life we�ve had
And making our love known would make many people sad
But I believe I�ve lived my life for only others then
It�s time I lived my life for me and now I do begin

One simple step into your heart and slowly you will see
That I could only love you for all eternity.
I have nothing to give you, my love is all I�ve got
I can�t pretend I�m someone else or anything I�m not

I hope that it�s enough for you, my fear is waging war
My heart tells me you are the one that I have waited for
But my mind is telling me to stop before it goes too deep
Little does it know that my heart has made that leap.

I can�t give back the time we�ve shared and the feelings that are here
I can�t stop this cascading love, I cannot stop the fear
I cannot stop the way I feel, nor would I even try
I promise to hold on for life to you I�d never lie

I know you feel the way I do for this you said to me
I know you fear and love me and that will have to be
Just know that I am here for you no matter what the day
That if you ever asked of me, know that with you I�d stay

Time is ticking by so fast I fear the futures end
So I wanted you to know that these words I do now send
I will never pressure you to be right here with me
If you�d ever ask me to I�d do it, I would set you free.

I�ll harbor no resentments nor tear you down at all
I�ll only ask one thing of you if you�d catch me when I fall
For you are all and more to me than ever could you know
Wherever you may go in life, my love with you shall go.
