Running Towards a Place

Give me the eyes that I may see The good in my people and 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 lightning 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 lightning 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 lightning from the locks Of your unbound hair
