Katharine McPhee – Terrified lyrics

Katharine McPhee – Terrified lyrics

Hmm... (3x)
You by light
Is the greatest find
In a world full wrong
You're the thing that's right
Finally made it through the lonely
To the other side

Chorus with Jason Reeves:
You said it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark
And I'm in love and I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time in my only life

And this could be good
It's already better than last
And love is worse than knowing
You're holding back
I could be all that you needed
If you let me try

You said it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark
And I'm in love and I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time in my only

I only said it 'cause I mean it
I only mean it 'cause it's true
So don't you doubt what I've been dreaming
'Cause it fills me up and holds me close whenever I'm without you

You said it again, my heart's in motion (you said it again)
Every word feels like a shooting star
Watching the shadows burning in the dark
And I'm in love and I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time in my only life
Life, life
In my only life

She's in love but he's terrified. Every lover's would feel terrified too. In a thought of like "does he really loves me? " or "im scared" and/or "is he the one" or anything terrifies you. I think this is not her first love but when that person comes everything is so different unlike before. He really like the guy and can't do any moves to express it. Or let say she's afraid to this guy coz he may just break her heart. So she did is by talking to him. I think they know they like each other but still afraid. And also the guy has this sweet mouth. Even they didn't become together the girl will still love tht guy. Whatever happens.

As the comments shown, I do believe this song is about a girl being afraid to love again but the guy says that she should trust him as his love is different. If the girl would open up to him, he would be everything he needed ("if you let me try"). He tells her not to hold back on him because he knows that she is. In the girl's perspective (1st verse) she sees the guy as her light because every memory of her past has always gone wrong and she makes him happy.

The girl is afraid of loving again but the guy convinces her that his love was different in the past. Even though the guy tells it, the girl still terrified about something she doesn't want to regret in the future. She has no assurance that this new love is very much different from her past.

By ten this song is about being afraid to fall in love but relizing it's the right thing to do. The song says " this could be good it's already better than the last" that means the man has finally found his true love and saying " i could be all you need" it's true all you need is one person to love you truly I have my love and my mom and my dog! It's one of my favorite songs and that dude can sing wow he's super good! The girl should go for it fall in love this could be the one I know my ninja man is my true love!

Terrified. Something you're afraid of. Like loosing that person, or even afraid to try new love because she's still in pain after her failed relationship, but the guy has the assurance that his love is merely different from the girl's past relationship. I can say that I'm very much related to this song 'coz now I'm so terrified of loving someone again.
