Running Towards a Place

Give me the eyes that I may see

The good in my people, the trouble in me

Give me the hands that I may lift

The weight of another who's starting to drift

And if we're running towards a place

Where we'll walk as one

Will the hardness of this life be overcome?

If I lay with you in love

Will you meet me there?

And shake the lighting from the locks

Of your unbound hair

Can two become one?

Give me a song that I may sing

That cuts like a canyon and rides on a wing

And give a heart that I may stand

For what I believe in

And if we're running towards a place

Where we'll walk as one

Will the hardness of this life be overcome?

If I walk the wild blue

Will you meet me there?

And shake the lighting from the locks

Of your unbound hair

Can two become one?

Can you see the world

In a grain of sand?

Can you find heaven in a wildflower

Hold it in the palm of your hand?

The moment we met

Burst like a star

Onto the canvas of the skyline

Purple and gold

We're in this together

I ain't never letting go

Because we're running towards a place

Where we'll walk as one

And the sadness of this life will be overcome

If I lay with you in love

Will you meet me there?

And shake the lighting from the locks

Of your unbound hair
