Lyrics
SCARED
I remember how much fun we had
Before the time when things got bad
Before we had the stuck inside blues
Your skirt was red my hat was white
My suit was loose your top was tight
We’d twist the night in our dancing shoes
When the plague came to our town
They had to shut the whole place down
Petrified we watched it on the news
“Wash your hands don’t touch your face
Stay at least six feet from the human race
Without a cure that’s all that you can do”
Baby I’m scared, scared
I’m scared of losing you
It would break my heart in two
Baby I’m scared, scared
I’m scared of losing you
Now we’re spending our time in quarantine
Learning to cook and pretending to clean
Trying our best to make it all okay
We’ve gotten closer than we thought we could
Maybe more than any couple should
But we wouldn’t have it any other way
With death outside our door
We both feel insecure
It takes all we’ve got just to get through the day
When I get back from the store
I drop the groceries on the floor
‘Cause it freaks me out everytime you say
Baby I’m scared, scared
I’m scared of losing you
It would break my heart in two
Baby I’m scared, scared
I’m scared of losing you
We can get on with our lives
When it’s safe to go outside
We won’t have to hide
Just to stay alive
Baby I’m scared, scared
I’m scared of losing you
It would break my heart in two
Baby I’m scared, scared
I’m scared of losing you
