Terrified - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

His smile was wide, but it was labored

It's a thing he couldn't help each time she laughed

He tried to hide inside her gaze, but every time she looked away

He didn't know if she'd ever make it back

He wondered if the night might change them

If they walk too far, would the path erase their steps?

Is growing old just time that hates us?

Or am I so full of love to make it last?

I'm terrifiеd that I might change

But I'm terrified that I'll just stay thе same

I'm scared that you might walk away

If I don't change or I don't stay the same

Should I change or should I stay the same?

Her eyes came back, it felt like ages

She felt the way his words were rife with doubt

She smiled, said, "Let your fears complain, I've got them too and let me say

I'm certain that they'll be here for a while"

I don't know how the night might change us

I'm not sure just how far this road will go

I don't know how much time might hate us

But I want to spend it terrified with you

I'll love you if you grow and change

I'll love you if you don't and stay the same

I promise I won't walk away

If you don't change or you don't stay the same

I'll love you if you grow and change

I'll love you if you don't and stay the same

I promise I won't walk away

If you don't change, or you don't stay the same

I'll love you, darling, either way

I love you, darling, either way
