Runaway Soulmate



I can't let you go
Your heart took hold of mine
Our souls now intertwined
Yet you want to run and go

I know all you've ever known
Is chasing love from a wandering heart
You're desires like dust on a forgotten heart
With the slightest breath their blown

All you've ever given chase
Everything your heart yearns for
Crying out in tears like silent prayers for
A lover's passionate embrace

I know I can't compare
To the fantasy you've written
But your fairy tale's a work of fiction
Yet these words I say are real and rare

I'd give up everything for you
I would spend my life in silence
For just one time to hear that sweet sentence
You're my everything, baby, I love you.

The final chapter just beginning
The time for running has past
My heart for you will forever last
My eternal love I offer in this ring
