lyrics

Scared of the Dark

REFRAIN:
Are you scared of the dark? Scared of the dark behind my eyes?
Does it make you feel uneasy to think about the heartaches and goodbyes?
And are you scared of the dark – scared of the dark things in this world?
Don’t be scared of me, darlin – I’m just a plain old complicated girl.

If I see the glass half-empty, it’s just that I appreciate the water.
If I seem like a cynic, it’s only that I’d hoped for so much more.
Dreams cannot be shattered if you never had them in the first place
and hope is only helpful when you remember what you had it for.

(REPEAT REFRAIN)

Lookin on the bright side of life is fine, but it will blind you
if you don’t take the time to look the other way every now and then.
If you really want to know just what you’ve got, then you’ve got to know what’s out there –
gotta know just what you’re up against when you walk out that front door once again.

(REPEAT REFRAIN)
