Running Too Fast
Verse I
Sometimes I wonder -
Whether it has been worth it.
No matter ho hard I try -
There is always another obstacle.
I think that I know what to do -
Then suddenly the rules change.
What once was fine is now wrong -
My heart aches and hardens again.
Chorus
Open your heart & eyes again -
To find a love that matters.
It seems like I've done this before -
A hundred thousand times.
I've grown so tired of all this stress -
And want to change it all.
Can you and I really do it all ?
And make the world a better place ?
Open your eyes to the one like you -
Cause only they know how to love you.
Reach out and give me your hand
And let us walk this life together.
Verse II
Can you really make a difference ?
When they want it all for themselves.
They take it all and hurt you so often -
And say that only they matter.
Hurt me no more please -
Give me a way to know.
Life can be beautiful -
If only you know the Way.
Chorus
Verse III
I know what really matters -
It's not the glitter or spoils.
It’s the heart that tells the truth -
And knows those so dear.
You give it one more chance -
To find a love so true.
Come walk with me my love -
And brighten the way with your smile.
Sing His praises as only you know -
Ands feel the wind at your back.
Open your heart and soul once again.
To find the love that's meant to be
You and I are the ones -
Who can see it all once again.
Chorus
