Love and fear

That is the deal

Love and fear

I believe fear
Is what we bear
So we can love


Someone above
Long ago
Gave us love


And let us know
That it will grow
Deep in our hearts


Where none are smart
And it will stay
And start to play


With our brain
We'll think in vain
That we can gain


Back our own sense
But there's no chance
We are now blessed


To feel and feel
And not to think
That there's a link


It is the deal
We'll never heal
Of our fear


Of losing love
The ones we love
Year after year


We'll always fear
The last time
Before a crime


The last time
We'll see them smile
Applaud their style


Look in their eyes
Become allies
Then start a fight


Over what's right
Watch a movie
Eat some sushi


Sing together
Dance together
Laugh together


Hear their advice
Even if not wise
Even their lies


Because time flies
And fear goes
When grief comes


Maybe that's the deal
So we may love
We need to fear loss

That's how it goes
Start, make a move
Say what you feel


Go, take a chance
Go to the dance
Go visit France


Spend time with them
Say you love them
And never leave


Because that's love
That and more
So much more


Than just the fear
Believe me, dear
Or maybe don't


I know I won't
You don't know me
But let it be


There is no fee
My point is free
And that's what it is


It's what I feel
Maybe it's real
What do you feel?
