I`m not scared of lions and tigers and bears, no, I`m not
But I`m scared of loving you
I`m not scared to perform at a sold out affair, that`s right
But I`m scared of loving you

Am I the only one who thinks it`s an impossible task?
Why it don`t last? Is that too much to ask?
Why do we love love
When love seems to hate us?

Sorry if I sound so filled with gloom
You say you care and I know you do
But this is from my experience
And my conclusion only makes sense

Just `cause I love you and you love me
It doesn`t mean that we`re meant to be
I can climb mountains, swim `cross the seas
But the most frightening thing is you and me

I`m not scared of lions and tigers and bears, no, I`m not
But I`m scared of loving you
I`m not scared to perform at a sold out affair, that`s right
But I`m scared of loving you

Am I the only one who thinks it`s an impossible task?
Why it don`t last? Is that too much to ask?
Why do we love love
When love seems to hate us?

Most circ**stances, I know my fate
But in this love thing, I don`t get the game
Why does it feel like those who give in
They only wind up losing a friend?

Just `cause I love you and you love me
It doesn`t mean that we`ll ever be
Fly `cross the ocean, sing for the queen
But the most frightening thing is you and me

I`m not scared of lions and tigers and bears, oh my
But I`m scared of loving you
I`m not scared to perform at a sold out affair, that`s right
But I`m scared of loving you

Am I the only one who thinks it`s an impossible task?
Why it don`t last? Is that too much to ask?
Why do we love love
When love seems to hate us?

I`m not sure though I`m not sure
But if we never try, we`ll never know
It`s better to have loved then not to love at all
Not trying is worse than to stumble and fall

And if we do, I`d rather it be with you
`Cause at least there will be sweet memories
Oh, I`m not scared

I`m not scared of lions and tigers and bears, no, I`m not
But I`m scared of loving you
I`m not scared to perform at a sold out affair, that`s right
But I`m scared of loving you

Am I the only one who thinks it`s an impossible task?
Why it don`t last? Is that too much to ask?
Why do we love love
When love seems to hate us?
