Give me your hand

And we can say hello

Your daddy is big

But his mind is slow

Kneed me out

Be back in ten

She's tired of playing pretend

If she calls I will tell her

If she calls tonight

If she calls I will be there

I'll be there just like a light

Don't be afraid to love

This ain't a game of love

Don't be afraid to love

And love again

I don't get the way you feel

This ain't a movie reel

Don't be afraid to love

And love again

I'm making my way

To my brothers house

He's calling my phone

While she's holding her blouse

She snuck out the back

With some northern boy

Now she's sleeping in a forest

Trying to find some joy

Don't be afraid to love

This ain't a game of love

Don't be afraid to love

And love again

I don't get the way you feel

And this ain't a movie reel

Don't be afraid to love

And love again

Well can you hear me scream out

For broken hearts on the run

And can you hear me scream out

For broken hearts on the run

We'll take a trip to California

And we'll forget what we've lost

We'll take a trip down to the coastline

With lost angels uncursed

And there's a groom there drinking coffee

The coffees cold like my heart

And there's a birthmark on his shoulder

Burnt my cap seems from the start

Don't be afraid to love

This ain't a game of love

Don't be afraid to love

And love again

I don't get the way you feel

And this ain't a movie reel

Well don't be afraid to love

And love again

Don't be afraid to love

And love again
