I always run to you, I sprint so fast.
Because time on earth may not last.
We'll never be certain of tomorrow or the next day
So I want to love you in every way.
-
There are some things holding me back.
They torture me in every attack.
Each time our future is something to worry for.
Then our present joy - I can't enjoy anymore.
-
Before life or the world ends, I want us to be together.
Nothing really lasts but I want us to make our own forever.
I hope you'll be prompted by the same desire as me.
Does it all now makes sense why I'm always in a hurry?
-
I'm holding on, but sometimes my grip is slipping.
Sometimes I want to give up, but still end up resisting.
I'm reminded that you too are a victim of life's afflictions.
Whenever I realize that, I want to fill you with care and affections.
-
I always pray for God to lay our future's groundwork and be our firm foundation.
And for us to witness together its long-awaited fruition.
I pray and hope to spend the rest of my life with you.
Do you have the same longing and dream as much as I do?
