The Chase
Well I hope you’re good
at jumping fences
and running quickly
and lowering defenses
And I hope you’re good
at catching what’s running
and I hope you don’t think
that ice is numbing
I’ll turn and I’ll run
I’ll look away
I’m uncatchable
But I want you to stay
I’ll be drawn to you
You’ll be drawn to me
And just before we collide
I’ll run for safety
Well I hope that you
Don’t mind the chase
Because I can’t slow down
Until I know it’s safe
So I'll run my fastest
I'll build my fences
I'll slow down when you show me
It's safe - from a distance
