FEAR OF REJECTION
Words and music (c) 1998, Richard D. Diakun
I`ve never been one with the lines,
never been overly smooth.
But I know what I`m feeling inside,
it`s got everything to do with you.
Ever since I first met you,
I feel like I`ve been walking on air.
But somehow when I`m with you,
I can`t come out with those words...
If I said I love you
Would you say you love me, too?
This fear of rejection brings me to my knees
Deep inside I wanna hide
Just in case you don`t pick me.
Fear of rejection is drivin` me insane
What the heck, stick out your neck
We`re goin` down in flames!
If only you would give a sign,
I`d know if have got a chance.
If only you could read my mind,
Help me out and ask me to dance.
Maybe I`ll just flash a smile,
and hope that you might smile back, too.
It might help sum up the courage
to put my heart out on the line for you.
If I said I love you
Would you say you love me, too?
This fear of rejection brings me to my knees
Deep inside I wanna hide
Just in case you don`t pick me.
Fear of rejection is drivin` me insane
What the heck, stick out your neck
We`re goin` down in flames!
This fear of rejection brings me to my knees
Deep inside I wanna hide
Just in case you don`t pick me.
Fear of rejection is drivin` me insane
What the heck, stick out your neck
We`re goin` down in flames!
If I said I love you
Would you say you love me, too?
This fear of rejection brings me to my knees
Deep inside I wanna hide
Just in case you don`t pick me.
Fear of rejection is drivin` me insane
What the heck, stick out your neck
We`re goin` down in flames!
Subtlely, I make a point
to spend all the time with you I can.
Over time you might get the hint
and maybe take a hold of my hand.
And one day you might say to me,
that you`ve been scared to say it, too.
Maybe it will come to be, because
it`s gotta come together before it finally comes apart.
If I said I love you
Would you say you love me, too?
This fear of rejection brings me to my knees
Deep inside I wanna hide
Just in case you don`t pick me.
Fear of rejection is drivin` me insane
What the heck, stick out your neck
We`re goin` down in flames!
This fear of rejection brings me to my knees
Deep inside I wanna hide
Just in case you don`t pick me.
Fear of rejection is drivin` me insane
What the heck, stick out your neck
We`re goin` down in flames!
