Song - Running Too Fast

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
