This song can be interpreted in two ways. Originally, Jason Robert Brown wrote it with the intention of it being about a young girl in her twenties. She is talking about her two friends Jenny and Katie and her boyfriend David and is talking of her bravado and fearlessness compared to them. Alternati...
[WOMAN 1]
Jenny's afraid of water
I mean, she swims so well, but still
She's afraid of water
And so she won't go near the sea...
Not me
Katie's afraid of darkness
I mean, she sleeps and all, but still
She's afraid of darkness
So when the lights are out she has to hold my hand-
I don't understand
I'm not afraid of anything-
Be it mountains, water, dragons, dark or sky
I'm not afraid of anything-
Tell me, where's the challenge if you never try?
So watch me fly!
I'm not afraid
Daddy's afraid of babies
I mean, he got through me, but now
He's afraid of babies-
Guess he's scared of what they'll be...
Not me
And Mama's afraid of crying
You know, she tries to hold it in-
She's afraid of crying
And she can look at me with tears stuck in her eye
And I don't know why
I'm not afraid of anything
Be it growing old or going out of style
I'm not afraid of anything-
Who would give up what they want without a trial?
Another mile!
I'm not afraid!
And I feel the calling of adventure
And I hear the ringing in my ear-
The lights are glaring, trumpets blaring
I'm right here!
And I hear the calling of tomorrow
And I feel the stirring in my bones
And David loves me...
He's afraid to hold me
Listen to the calling of excitement-
Can you feel the pounding of my heart?
The lights are ready, pulses steady
I can start!
Never stop the calling of a challenge!
Blessing on the water and the stones!
And David loves me-
He's afraid to tell me
David loves me-
He's afraid to trust me
He's afraid to hold me
And he'll always be...
He's afraid of me...
And I'm not afraid of anyone!
I am sure to win with anyone at all!
I'm not afraid of anyone!
Not a soul alive can get behind this wall!
So let them call
And watch them fall
'Cause after all...
I'm not afraid
