If I Were Afraid

By Bruce Clifford 

 

If I were afraid to follow the plan
If all got away you wouldn’t understand
If nothing was real in each separate way
How would you feel if it melted away

If dreams weren’t dreams
As hard as it seems
If right wasn’t wrong
If we didn’t belong

If I were afraid to stand out in the crowd
If there was nothing to say,
but you didn’t come around

If dreams weren’t dreams
What could it mean
If the past couldn’t be saved
We would never escape

If I were afraid to live for the dream
If nothing was saved who knows what would be
If memories did fade in the fabric of time
How would you feel if we fell from the sky
