don't scare me, don't scare me
with talk of forever and always, just stay
don't scare me, don't scare me
with words like I love you, they haunt me some days
nobody knows better than me
that love is a fickle friend
who can give you up, give you up, give you up
without whisper or warning
give you up, give you up, give you up
and it scares me, scares me
don't tell me, don't tell me
that you'll take care of me forever and always
don't tempt me, don't tempt me
to trust you, oh how I long to some days
nobody knows better than me
that love is a fickle friend
who can give you up, give you up, give you up
without whisper or warning
give you up, give you up, give you up
and it scares me, scares me
and I would be the first to say
the best-laid plans can fail
I guess it's just like anything
where only time can tell
