I Won't Be Afraid of Love

And I won't be afraid of love

No, I won't be afraid of love

I keep a record of my dreams as I'm seein' them

Maybe I can figure out the sequence someday

I keep returning to an image in the deep end

Only stayin' in focus as my bed is unmade

But I won't go mistaking it

And I won't shy away from it

One at a time, I'm fallin' again

Over the same things

The memories always seem to rhyme

The days in a line

The weeks in a stanza

But though I know these aches will come

There is a case I'm making

I know, I won't be afraid of love until it's gone

I've got these strange little shimmers in my voice box

Baby, would you look and tell me if it's okay?

I keep returning to this image of the void but

Only stays in focus when it's awfully late

But I won't go mistaking it

And I won't shy away from it

One at a time, I'm fallin' again

Over the same things

The memories always seem to rhyme

The days in a line

The weeks in a stanza

But though I know these aches will come

There is a case I'm makin'

I know, I won't be afraid of love until it's gone
