Fear

Music and Lyrics by Sarah McLachlan


Morning smiles
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 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 it
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 your 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.
