I Ran

Love’s shadow roped in white
From inside the shrouds I see
Just how beautiful love could be
If you were here with me

I see you on the horizon
Dancing in the sinking blaze
Threading lightly, as past days
Became submerged upon your face

Chorus:
Can you run towards a shadow/
Or are you merely dreaming in vain?
Can you run towards a hope/
When the road is paved with pain?

Our love was pure, I know
Yet from love was turned the soul
The flame died in the cold
Of insecurities of old

Chorus:
Can you run towards a shadow/
Or are you merely dreaming in vain?
Can you run towards a hope/
When the road is paved with pain?

You drift afore my thoughts
In golden rays adorned
My heart it it cried, forewarned
Of sorrows to be mourned
Yet its advice I scorned

Chorus:
I ran towards a shadow/
Merely dreaming in vain/
I ran towards a foolish hope/
Upon my road to pain
