The World I Used to Be Afraid of Lyrics by Blanche (USA)

Little Amber Bottles

2007

The world I used to be afraid doesn't scare me anymore
Cause I know the things that matter are behind another door
This world will keep on turning and the stars will always shine
And I started on that night your heart became all mine
That first time that I saw your big brown eyes and long red hair
To have you give your heard to me became my only prayer
When I gave you mine, you just used it for awhile
Then you clutched onto another, dropped me in your file
You nеver gave my heart back, so my lovе you must've felt
Still went crazy waiting for your stubborn heart to melt
You'd walk by with other guys and you'd blow me a kiss
So I know you'll understand why I have to do a thing like this
I had to do a thing like this
The world I used to be afraid doesn't scare me anymore
Cause I know the things that matter are behind another door
This world will keep on turning and the stars will always shine
And I started on that night your heart became all mine
We walked along the Detroit river where we always used to go
But instead of holding hands, you were shivering in the snow
To let you turn your back on true love would've been a mortal sin
So I held you underwater til you finally gave in
You finally gave in
I used to be so frightened, at night I turned and tossed
Wishing this cruel world give me back the soulmate I had lost
But now your heart belongs to me, I can live now I've got love
Though your dead, I can face this world until I join you up above
I will join you up above
The world I used to be afraid doesn't scare me anymore
Cause I know the things that matter are behind another door
This world will keep on turning and the stars will always shine
And I started on that night your heart became all mine
