she caught my eye on the back of the bus
a pretty young thing from a little old town
leaving cause it wasn't enough
she's out on a mission to love
wearing that heart right out on her sleeve
acting like she's having fun
let's pretend for a minute she was happy
i can see she's headed for a tragedy
what would you do if you weren't afraid?
tell me what would you do if i called your name
well it's been about five or six months
living right under the gun
the same sweet girl from the back of the bus
baby on the way but she's living alone
cause her man ain't man enough
i pretend for a minute she was happy
i can see she's livin in a tragedy
what would you do if you weren't afraid?
tell me what would you do if i called your name
that the fear that's keeping you here
it's the fear that's keeping you here
drop everything that caused your pain
i could be your comfort but you choose your fate
won't you drop everything? drop everything
what would you do if you weren't afraid?
tell me what would you do if i called your name
