Analysis of Scared of love

Marshay Spead 1989 (United States)



Waiting patiently to love again
Don't  want to fall again
Can you catch me  baby  ?
Can you  love me  baby  ?
Because  I'm  scared of  what comes with  love
The pain,the tears ,the heartbreak
It's my heart that  you  will take  when I find  out this  love is fake
I can't  do this  for  my own sake  
Will it only be  love that we will make
Or will you  have  your cake and eat it too
Am I just  a temporary  boo
Or could I  be a fool for  you  ?
I'm  scared  of  giving  my heart  
But if you  wait patiently   we can give this  love a start .
