Chase The Sun

© 2023 Jeffrey E. McCaskill. All Rights Reserved.

You’ve been around the block a few times
You’ve seen it all before, you say
So why when I told you I love you
Did you just turn and walk away?

Have you become some kind of cynic
The very thing you used to hate
Or did you run because you’re so afraid 
Babe, you might get hurt someday?
​
CHORUS
I need your song inside my heart, love
​I need your spirit in my life
And when I get it together one day
I hope you’ll be my wife.

Nothing is handed to us, baby
We have to strive to get what’s ours
Without forgetting to be grateful
And ever mindful of the stars. 

So I will wait for you, my angel
With all the hope that I can sway
I trust that all we’ve shared and dreamed and prayed
Will drive your fears away.

CHORUS

But I can’t wait forever, darling
My course is set to chase the sun
Oh how I’d love to chase it with you
Until we reach the light as one.
