Afraid of letting go
by Beverley Craven

Every night
I gave myself three wishes
´cos I believed
I had a secret god
we made a deal
that you would stay together
but he let me down
you told me things
beyond my understanding
the pain of love
I didn´t wanna feel
but through the walls
I could hear you crying
and I can´t sleep
and now, he holds me in his arms
and says our love will last
forever, I´ll never be alone
but still the little girl inside
is here within my life
and I´m afraid of letting go
nursery rhymes
sung to me a bathtime
will always be
a favourite memory
of long ago
before the dream was over
and the love had gone
finally, relieved that it was ending
I told myself
I didn´t really care
I made a god
for something to believe in
but no one´s there
and now, he holds me in his arms
and says our love will last
forever, I´ll never be alone
but still the little girl inside
is here within my life
and I´m afraid of letting go
but still the little girl inside
is here within my life
and I´m afraid of letting go
I gave myself three wishes
´cos I believed
I had a secret god
we made a deal
that you would stay together
but he let me down
you told me things
beyond my understanding
the pain of love
I didn´t wanna feel
but through the walls
I could hear you crying
and I can´t sleep
and now, he holds me in his arms
and says our love will last
forever, I´ll never be alone
but still the little girl inside
is here within my life
and I´m afraid of letting go
nursery rhymes
sung to me a bathtime
will always be
a favourite memory

before the dream was over
and the love had gone

and now, he holds me in his arms
and says our love will last
