Fear

like the face

of a newborn child,

innocent, unknowing.

Winter's end

promises

of a long lost friend.

Speaks to me of comfort

but I fear

I have nothing to give.

I have so much

to lose here in this lonely place.

Tangled up in your embrace

there's there's nothing I'd like better than

to fall.

but I fear

I have nothing to give.

Wind in time

rapes the flower

trembling on the vine

and nothing yields to shelter

from above.

They say temptation will destroy our love.

The never ending hunger

but I fear

I have nothing to give

I have so much

to lose here in this lonely place

tangled up in our embrace

there's nothing I'd like better than

to fall

but I fear

I have nothing to give.

I have so much to lose.

I have nothing to give.

We have so much to lose...
