Anxiety of Love

When I saw  you standing there, darling it caught me by surprise

Your sacred smile and the glitter in your eyes

In a room full of strangers, there was only you and I

I just couldn’t look away 


You were wounded, but I felt your heart was pure

My head was clouded, but I knew  that I was sure

In a crowd of faceless phantoms, I thought I knew  who you were

I just could not walk away 


afraid, my heart is beating 

I am begging and I am pleading - that I don’t let myself down again

afraid that my ghost is fading

I am begging and I am pleading – that you see who I really am


Doubt is a drug running in my veins

levitate across the room and I ask you your name

Everything I thought I knew, would never be the same

We held hands and walked away


Under the spell, we lost track of time

In a moment we had left behind the devils in disguise

We both felt that we’ve met before tonight

And it would always be this way


afraid, my heart is beating 

I am begging, I am pleading - that I don’t let myself down again

Afraid, that my heart is bleeding 

I am begging, I am pleading – that I can be who I really am


You are the one, we can be whole 

Forever we live on, together not alone

Fear of the past disappears into the wind

With you, I leave behind the life I used to live
