"Please Don't Be Scared" lyrics - SHEENA EASTON

There's a light behind your eyes
I see it shining
It only fades when you cry
There's a heart that beats so strong
I feel it dying

When the night time lasts too long
Now you and I have lived out centuries
And all I can say
Is what you've offered to me

Please don't be scared
'Cause I've stood there too
Between survival
And the right thing to do

'Cause only the strong
Admit their fears
And if you really need me
I'll always be here

The parties and the lights
Fade to memories
In the still of the night
And you wonder in your mind
If there's nothing left
To show for all the time
'Cause feelin' pain's a hard way

Please don't be scared
'Cause I've stood there too
Between survival
And the right thing to do

'Cause only the strong
Admit their fears
And if you really need me
I'll always be here

To know you're still alive
But someday someone
Will make you glad I survived

Please don't be scared
'Cause I've stood there too
Between survival
And the right thing to do

'Cause only the strong
Admit their fears
And if you really need me
I'll always be here
