The Fear Of Being Alone

	We ordered up one more bottle of wine
	You told me your story and
	I thought about mine
	You said when you lost her you lost everything
	It all started having a familiar ring
	So I asked you to take me, some place quiet
	We wound up at the river for the rest of the night
	Somewhere around the break of day
	I could hear it coming from a mile away
	So don't say that word
	Not the one we both heard too much
	You may think you do but you don't
	It's just the fear of being alone
	Reckless hearts can clear a path
	Wider than a hurricane's aftermath
	We've both traveled down that road
	Where in the name of love anything goes
	So don't say that word
	Not the one we both heard too much
	You may think you do but you don't
	It's just the fear of being alone
	Like a child in the night with no one to hold you
	And tell you everything's gonna be all right
	I must admit it's been fun
	But that's no reason to jump the gun
	If this is real, time will tell
	So let me bite my tongue and remind myself
	Don't say that word
	Not the one we both heard too much
	You may think you do but you don't
	It's just the fear of being alone
