Sometimes I want to throw my arms around you Then I tremble at the thought of giving in Because I know how much it costs to love you And I'm so afraid of losing you again [Chorus] Being close to you revives the sorrow That wakes me up and tells me I can't win I'd love to wake up in your arms tomorrow But I'm so afraid of losing you again If heaven were to hear my heart's confessions Wanting you would be my greatest sin But I'm glad you're no longer my possession 'Cause I'm so afraid of losing you again [Chorus] I'm so afraid of losing you again
