I'm Afraid

Neil Diamond · Other Songs - Neil Diamond

I'm afraid, so afraid

That you'll go

And I'll know

It's the end

The end of all the love I ever knew

And the kisses tender as

The morning dew



I'm afraid

So afraid

Destiny did foresee lonely days

I'll never understand

The reason why

Why a love as warm as ours

Should ever die



All I want is you

Standing close to me

You can make me walk the line

If you love me to

Listen to my plea

Darlin' won't you say that you're mine



I'm afraid, so afraid

That you'll leave me to grieve

Every night

And every tear will tell

The price I paid

I played the game of love

And I'm afraid, I'm afraid

So afraid

So afraid
