Lyrics

Afraid Of Love
(c) Dave & Debbie Colvin
Arnybarn Music (BMI)
VERSE 1 I pull back when you try to hold my hand
Shake my head when you say you understand
How can I return to the hurt and the pain?
There's no way I can fall in love again

CHORUS Love is supposed to make you happy
Turn those old gray skies to blue
Love is the answer so they say
Love has only brought me sorrow
Broke my poor heart right in two
If I'm afraid of love, how can I ever love you?

VERSE 2 You tell me it will be different this time
A gentle hug you say it will be fine
When I've opened up - my heart before
I found myself closing another door

CHORUS Love is supposed to make you happy
Turn those old gray skies to blue
Love is the answer so they say
Love has only brought me sorrow
Broke my poor heart right in two
If I'm afraid of love, how can I ever love you?

BRIDGE You hold my face so tenderly, look deep into my eyes
In a loving voice what you say makes me cry...

CHORUS Love is going to make you happy
Turn those old gray skies to blue
Love is the answer I am telling you
Love will bring you new tomorrows
Heal your heart I promise you
Don't be afraid of love, now that I am loving you
Don't be afraid of love, now that I am loving you
Don't be afraid of love, now that I am loving you
