The Fear Of Being Alone

The Fear Of Being Alone (Album Version) - Reba McEntire

We ordered up one more bottle of wine

You told your story

And I thought about mine

You said when you lost her

You lost everything

It all started having a familiar ring

I asked you to take me someplace quiet

We wound up at

The river for the rest of the night

Somewhere around the break of day

I could hear it coming from a mile away

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 being alone

Reckless hearts can clear a path wider

Than a hurricane's aftermath

We've both traveled down that road

Well in the name of love anything goes

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 being alone

Like a child in the night

With no one to hold you

And tell you everything's gonna be alright

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

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 being alone
