Afraid of Letting Go Lyrics

Every night
I gave myself three wishes
'cos I believed
I had a secret god
We made a deal
That you would stay together
But he let me down
You told me things
Beyond my understanding
The pain of love
I didn't wanna feel
But through the walls
I could hear you crying
And I can't sleep

And now, he holds me in his arms
And says our love will last
Forever, I'll never be alone
But still the little girl inside
Is here within my life
And I'm afraid of letting go

Nursery rhymes
Sung to me a bathtime


Will always be
A favourite memory
Of long ago
Before the dream was over
And the love had gone

Finally, relieved that it was ending
I told myself
I didn't really care
I made a god
For something to believe in
But no one's there

And now, he holds me in his arms
And says our love will last
Forever, I'll never be alone
But still the little girl inside
Is here within my life
And I'm afraid of letting go

But still the little girl inside
Is here within my life
And I'm afraid of letting go

Beverley Craven is a British singer, born 28 June 1963 in Colombo, Sri Lanka.

She had her greatest success in the early 90s, and is best known for the hit "Promise Me" which hit Number 3 in the UK singles chart in 1991 and is taken from her self-titled debut album released in 1990. Craven achieved another five entries in the same chart over the next two years.

After first meeting backstage at a Tears for Fears concert, Craven married singer/songwriter Colin Campsie, and the couple now have three daughters. Campsie and Craven used to own the top & bottom flats in a three-storey house in London. When the person in the middle moved out, they bought the flat and converted the building back into one house. The family now live in Buckinghamshire.

She survived Breast cancer in 2005, and was given the all clear in February 2006. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
