Tune Tuesday: ‘Terrified’ by Katharine McPhee

Every Tuesday here at The Mortal Instruments Source is Tune Tuesday, where we share a song that relates to The Mortal Instruments or The Infernal Devices.

This week’s song is “Terrified” by Katharine McPhee (feat. Zachary Levi).

Once I heard this song  I just knew that this was the perfect song to depict Alec’s feelings about his relationship with Magnus.

“And I’m in love/And I’m terrified/For the first time and the last time/In my only life”

‘Terrified’ by Katharine McPhee:

You, by the light
Is the greatest find
In a world full of wrong
You’re the thing that’s right

Finally made it through the lonely
To the other side

You set it again, my heart’s in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I’m at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark

And I’m in love
And I’m terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only life

And this could be good
It’s already better than that
And nothing’s worse
Than knowing you’re holding back

I could be all that you need
If you let me try

You set it again, my heart’s in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I’m at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark

And I’m in love
And I’m terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only

I only said it ’cause I mean it
I only mean ’cause it’s true
So don’t you doubt what I’ve been dreaming
‘Cause it fills me up and holds me close whenever I’m without you

You set it again, my heart’s in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I’m at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark

And I’m in love
And I’m terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only
