Afraid - Heather Small

Know that the world is turning

And we’re running to keep up with the pace

The body and heart still learning

There are problems I know I still have to face

The world is turning, ever changing

Every turn keeps hope alive

No matter what tomorrow brings

We can’t hold back the hands of time

Too many days, I’ve been afraid

Too many nights, when alone I laid

Human and full of frailty

But the world is mine and belongs to me

I’m not afraid

Know that the sky is broken

And my shoulders can hardly take the weight

The spirit and soul still open

To believe, there is something more than fate

The world is turning, ever changing

Every turn keeps hope alive

No matter what tomorrow brings

We can’t hold back the hands of time

Too many days, I’ve been afraid

Too many nights, when alone I laid

Human and full of frailty

But the world is mine and belongs to me

So be brave and face

The world is not a dark and hopeless place

And in time your heart will heal

'Cos I have the strength I hold the key

And the world is mine and belongs to me

The world is turning, ever changing

Every turn keeps hope alive

No matter what tomorrow brings

We can’t hold back the hands of time

Too many days, I’ve been afraid

Too many nights, when alone I laid

Human and full of frailty

But the world is mine and belongs to me

I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid, afraid
