about

Here's the unplugged version of Scared of Losing You which is the only song I didn't revise last summer; it is pretty much the same as I wrote it back in 1993. I was attending a French language course in St.Malo - we were a whole group of German teenagers, each living with French families during that time. On the train to France, I met David and for me, it was love at first sight!

We became good friends but unfortunately, it turned out he didn't live anywhere near me. He lived in Dubai! He was German but his family had moved there. Well, after we had met in St.Malo we did write to each other for some time and even met again 6 years later. At some point, we lost contact, though, and went our separate ways.

lyrics

Scared of Losing You

Rain’s falling down
Tapping on my window
This makes me think of you
And I have no reason to
You’re perfectly the one for me
At least that’s what it seems
Last night I had a dream
We were together you and me

I wish I’d never met you
‘Cause you won’t go off my mind
I deny it to be true
But I’m scared of losing you
We live too far away from each other
One day I might discover
My heart is heavy like a stone
And you make me cry alone

And I’m trying to run away
Although it’s not the right way
I’m trying to hide my feelings
Although they have some meaning
I have to control them well
You’re the one I just can’t tell
I feel something’s in the air
Yet now I feel so scared

I hope you won’t forget me
We’ll write to each other overseas
To this land so far away
I’ll think of you each day
And if there’s a promise we can make
That time and distance cannot break
Let’s keep in touch through a pen
And let’s agree we’ll meet again

And I’m trying to run away
Although it’s not the right way
I’m trying to hide my feelings
Although they have some meaning
I have to control them well
You’re the one I just can’t tell
I feel something’s in the air
Yet now I feel so scared
