Scary Love

I see pictures of my mama hangin' on the wall

She's never looked so happy and I've never looked so small

Now I'm holdin' you and I know what they say is true

When a baby's born, that's when a mother's born too

And time starts tickin' and tickin'

Don't wanna blink or I'll miss it

I found my reason for livin'

'Cause I've felt it before, but it wasn't like this

Ain't a thing I wouldn't do, ain't a thing I wouldn't give

It's the kind you fall into and never hit the bottom of

It's a scary love

It's a scary love

Drivin' to the store ain't just driving to the store anymore

Don't wanna imagine 'cause anything could happen

I still can't believe just how often my knees hit the floor

God, I feel helpless, but I can't really help it

I'd trade my life in a second to save you, there ain't no question

Yeah, it's a curse, it's a blessin', blessin'

'Cause I've felt it before but it wasn't like this

Ain't a thing I wouldn't do, ain't a thing I wouldn't give

It's the kind you fall into and never hit the bottom of

It's a scary love

It's a scary love

Can't wait to watch you grow up

No, I've never wanted anything more

But I know it's gonna kill me

Watchin' you walk out that door

I've felt it before, but it wasn't like this

Ain't a thing I wouldn't do, ain't a thing I wouldn't give

It's the kind you fall into and never hit the bottom of

Damn, it's a scary love
