I'm Not Afraid Lyrics

Love, they say, is serious.
It's not a child's game.
Love can make or break your heart
But Darling, all the same
I'm not afraid
(I'm not afraid)
No I'm not afraid
(I'm not afraid)
People tell me that I'm too young.
But I disagree
Love can come to anyone
And love has come to me.
I'm not afraid
(I'm not afraid)
I'm not afraid just as long as I know that you'll always be with me
And as each tnder kiss goes boldly now (??)
I somehow feel I'm old enough (??)
Darling if you really care,
And I'm ya do,
Take my hand and hold me tight
And make my dreams come true
I'm not afraid
(I'm not afraid)
No I'm not afraid
(I'm not afraid)
No I'm not afraid

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
