In this poignant composition, the protagonist grapples with feelings of neglect and longing for a lover preoccupied with his rodeo career. The lyrics are imbued with a sense of frustration, as the protagonist yearns for acknowledgment and affection, often left waiting in vain. This is symbolized by her meticulous preparation for their meetings, only to be stood up repeatedly. The repeated question "What are you so afraid of?" indicates her confusion about his reluctance to commit or express his feelings openly. The song serves as a potent reminder that while professional pursuits can be fulfilling, they should not overshadow personal relationships and emotional needs ðŸŽðŸ’”. #UnrequitedLove #Neglect #Longing #EmotionalStruggle
