If I ever were to ever get the courage,

To stand up and tell you the truth,

That for my whole life,

I could wait for you.

Then maybe I could stop dreaming,

Of your eyes looking at me,

With your hands frozen to your sides,

You want to wipe away all the tears,

But you can't.

I'll step away,

I'll dance away.

I'm scared of what you do.

I'm scared of knowing that you could hurt me in a second.

Once you told me you loved me,

The first and last time.

I was afraid.

If I could change that moment,

So that I fell into your arms,

For you to protect me,

From all the pain that came my way,

I think my life now,

Would have more meaning.
