Running Without You

I’m running through these fields of golden wheat

Following the path of my fire so sweet

Past the cottonwoods and the music of meadowlarks

My heart speaks to me and tells me to follow the sparks

Insides ache with emptiness, we grieve

Together, our stories have only begun to weave

I’m running past the descent of the sun

There is only you, the destination of my run

Depart your harbor and hoist up the sail

I’ll run around this earth and send you air mail

Catch the winds that lead you to my heart

It’s impossible for our love to depart

I’m running beneath the sea

Searching for the perfect place for you and me

Our threads of passion have intertwined

No longer is our love hidden and blind

Let your dreams incubate with mine

Love like this is only once, so divine

I’m running towards you with my key

Unlock yourself before our December jubilee

My tumbled scar is healed, removed the suture

Repair my heart, so let us share our future

Our balcony on the Mediterranean will wait

Accompany me into love’s gate

I’m running without you today

I know once you are in, long you will stay

Giving up is not an option for the two

The life we live is not quite through

Bid farewell to that port

It is I who will be your aisle escort
