Scared
Ashanti · Ashanti [2002]
It was around 11:30 when I realized I missed you
sitting at home all alone thinking what did I just do
feeling was strong comin on and i knew I wanted you
but something inside held me back
boy,you got me scared of you
Chorus:
Got me afraid to let my love go
Is it my heart that i should follow
Got me afraid to let myself go
Got me scared of you
Got me afraid to let my love go
Is it my heart that i should follow
Got me afraid to let myself go
Got me scared of you
Verse 2:
if i let go, I don't know if my heart will remain strong
cause you're the type that just might get it right and get me strong
i couldnt be just a girl that you seein once a month
cause if it goes down, better believe i'm gon' be your only one
(chorus)
bridge:
should I let it go, should I let it go?
no, no, no, no
should I let it go, should I let it go?
no, no, no, no, no, no
should I let it go, should I let it go?
no, no, no, no,
should I let it go, should I let it go?
no, no, no, no, no, no
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
