So my friend Someone broke your heart again And you came by hoping I would listen You look like hell And you're feeling sorry for yourself You thought your life was finally all right and now it isn't You want a love that you can keep But he's scared to get in too deep
He's just afraid of love He can't rise above his lack of trust He can't adjust And when push comes to shove He's always afraid of love
Remember that streetwise girl She acted like she owned the world She'd drink her booze and let herself be used like a hooker Until one day she rubbed someone the wrong way He made some noise and finally the big boys came and took her She really had a lot to give She just thought she needed a lot to live
She was just afraid of love She couldnn't rise above his lack of trust She couldn't adjust And when push came to shove She was always afraid of love

I thought by now i'd have someone But it seems my work is never done I think too much and get myself in such a tizzy I let my hopes get too high then instead of saying good-bye I never call and tell them all I'm too busy I really want to let you in But I'm not gonna let you win
Maybe I'm just afraid of love I can't rise above my lack of trust I can't adjust and when push comes to shove I'm always afraid I'm just afraid of love I can't rise above my lack of trust I can't adjust and when push comes to shove I'm always afraid of love
