Always Ready To Leave

Always Ready To Leave

Don’t be alarmed by the bag on my arm

And the suitcase by the door

I’m always ready to walk away

And excuses I look for

I’m just afraid of getting hurt

I’m afraid you won’t accept me

Afraid you may walk before me

If someone else is more tempting

I’m afraid that I may find

That I’ve put you on a pedestal

Imagined you to be the perfect person

Just as I’d written in my epistle

I’m afraid that I may love too soon

And fall too fast again

Afraid that I’ll give my heart away

And you’ll still call me your friend

I’m so sorry, so very sorry

But it seems I have to go

I’m afraid to stay, afraid to commit

Afraid that you may go
