Running through the deep forest
Without a moment's rest
Running with you by my side
Chased by faces unknown.
Some time along the way though
I lost you
Like you were never there
Like we were never there
My feet hurt
I taste salt
It stings deep into my skin
I'm wounded
But I must keep running
Breathlessness can stop me not
This run, somehow, has an urgent meaning
I cross the border
And step into a new order
I'm a changed woman
I don't hear footsteps behind me
There is no fear
No loathing
I see the stream so clear
Water shines
Sunlight perched on rocks
Time has stopped
I'm wearing a white robe
The little boy, he smiles at me
Takes my hand and we begin to row
We must cross this stream
Another border
A new world awaits
Ancient temples and idols
Carved out of stones
The artisans
They linger in anonimity
The place has a quiet pride
The cold marble touches my sole and soul
I will linger here
Till eternity.

I could almost visualize the video of Bono singing...
I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name
The cities a flood
And our love turns to rust
Were beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled into dust
Ill show you a place
High on ta desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Elegantly Tasteful...
My admiration never stops...
:) i didnt have that in mind. this is a dream i saw. seemed so real, it was really like the place actually exists and it is important. I dont know why. i have never lingered in a dream so much as this one
