And
I don't know
I'm just scared to look in your eyes
Cause you're looking at me like I mean something
Like maybe I mean everything
And the pen in my hand is shaking
Cause I love those eyes
And I'm scared of them
Cause they're not afraid of love
They're not afraid to hurt for love
And
I don't know
Why I'm so scared
I'm scared to have lest I lose
I'm scared to jump lest I fall
I'm scared to hold you close lest you slip through my fingers
Gone
But mostly I'm scared that I'll leave you bruised
Cause I love those eyes
And I can't see them wounded
But
I don't know
Cause every time I look away and look back
Your eyes are still looking into mine
Like they'd be content to do the same forever
And I feel myself smiling in spite of myself
Cause I see the smile on the edge of your lips
And it's hard to be scared when you're right there
Unshaven and laughing and so familiar
And it's hard to imagine you gone
Cause you've always stayed
