I`m Not Afraid — текст песни (Frank Sinatra)

One afternoon I came to hear
You sing a soft song into my ear
Who would have thought quite by chance
We might engage in a loving dance?

Coming together, coming apart
Lost in diversions, dancing stars
Caught in the quiet, off on our own
Coming together, standing alone

Are you afraid?
I`m not afraid

What about you, what about me?
Two years from now where will we be?
Each of us gone our separate ways
Lost in a headlong passage of days

Maybe we might give love a try
Extending the moment before "goodbye"
And for a gentle moment in time
We`ll take what pleasure people can find

Are you afraid?
I`m not afraid

What is for real, what is false?
All of us seem to be caught in a waltz
Turning around, turning again
When will the dancing ever end?

As for us, you and me
Our eyes are open, we can see
Both of us know where we`ve been
Why must we both go dancing again?

<brief instrumental>

Come join the dancing, come join the waltz
Don`t look too closely at my faults
Why can`t I die here in your arms?
Safe from the night and safe from the dawn

Back to the nothing that had no name
Back to the nowhere from where I came
Don`t worry of me, I know what I am
Where I`m goin` and where I`ve been

I`m not afraid!
I`m not afraid!
No, I`m not afraid!
