Better Be Afraid...
I know
For years you have tried
And I know
All the nights that you cried
But deep in your soul, you know that you feel it
Your heart's crying out, in your eyes they reveal it
I know
You've been hurt before
And I know
You can't take anymore
But don't quit on love, I know I can heal it
Your heart's reaching out, and you know that I'll steal it

I know
You're afraid of the past
I know
You're afraid this may last
I know
This is something we can both rise above
If you're gonna be afraid...be afraid of my love

I know
That I've said too much
And I know
That we've both lost touch
But you know it's true, I've never been a liar
Your heart's calling out, for the love that it requires 
I know
That you don't trust me
And I know
How much pain there must be
But passion is thirst, it quenches your desire
Your heart has the hunger, and your eyes have the fire

I know
You're afraid of the chance
I know
You're afraid of romance
I know
This is something we can both rise above
If you're gonna be afraid...be afraid of my love

I know
You're afraid of my touch
I know
You're afraid it's too much
I know
This is something we can both rise above
If you're gonna be afraid...be afraid of my love
You better be afraid of my love
Better be afraid of my love
Better be afraid of my love
