Love Unafraid
Sherrié Austin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can feel the night holding its breath
We've stripped our defenses, our souls are laid bare
Let's put our fears to the test
Come to me now with a love unafraid
Lay your heart down and stay
Leave the window open, don't pull the shades
The moonlight is chasin', the shadows away
We got no more secrets to hide
So don't fight this feeling, don't be ashamed
Of the need we've been keepin' inside
Come to me now with a love unafraid
Lay your heart down and stay
Leave the window open, don't pull the shades
Let the morning sun show we've made, love unafraid
Make no promises, tell no lies
And don't close your eyes
Come to me now with a love unafraid
Lay your heart down and stay
Leave the window open, don't pull the shades
Let the morning sun show we've made, love unafraid
Let the morning sun show we've made, love unafraid, ooh
Sherrié Austin's "Love Unafraid" is a song about two people who have removed their emotional barriers and are allowing themselves to love without fear. The lyrics describe a peaceful night where the rain has stopped, and there is a stillness in the air. The couple has let go of their defenses, and their vulnerability is on full display. They are ready to put their love to the test, without holding anything back.
The chorus urges the lover to come to her unafraid, to leave the window open, and let the morning sun show their love. The moonlight chases away the shadows, and they have no more secrets to hide. There is a sense of desperation in the lyrics as both lovers want to seize the moment and allow themselves the chance to love fully without any reservations.
The lyrics are a beautiful expression of how love can only be experienced to its fullest extent when we put our fears aside and let ourselves be vulnerable with another person. Sherrié Austin's voice lends the perfect touch of gentleness to the song, making it an emotional experience for anyone listening.
