Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We ordered up one more bottle of wine
You told me your story, and I thought about mine
You said when you lost her, you lost everything
It all started havin' a familiar ring
[Verse 2]
So I asked you to take me some place quiet
We wound up at the river for the rest of the night
Somewhere around the break of day
I could hear it comin' from a mile away
[Verse 3]
So don't say that word
Not the one we both heard too much
You may think you do, but you don't
It's just the fear of bein' alone
[Verse 4]
Reckless hearts can clear a path
Wider than a hurricane's aftermath
We've both traveled down that road
Where in the name of love, anything goes
[Verse 5]
So don't say that word
Not the one we both heard too much
You may think you do, but you don't
It's just the fear of bein' alone
[Verse 6]
Like a child in the night
With no one to hold you
And tell you everything's gonna be alright
[Verse 7]
I must admit it's been fun
But that's no reason to jump the gun
If this is real, time will tell
So let me bite my tongue and remind myself
[Verse 8]
Don't say that word
Not the one we both heard too much
You may think you do but you don't
It's just the fear of bein' alone
