Chase the Light

I never grew out of my childish dreams,
Imaginary friends and irrational fears.
I was the girl who never gave up,
Who never gave in to her tears.

You never grew out of your boyish charms,
Shining smile and glittering eyes.
You were the boy who never gave up,
Who never let my fancies die.

We both grew up and away from that place,
Now nothing is easy and nothing is free.
But together again, after all these years,
Will you chase the light with me?

The sun is setting like it always does.
Do you remember what that used to mean?
It is stealing the light and the path to our worlds;
The kingdoms of our dreams.

We used to run as fast as we could,
To try and capture some of that light.
If we could catch it, then our dreams could be real.
But day always turned into night.

I think of that every day, my friend.
All those dreams that managed to flee...
Maybe, this time, we can outrun the dark.
Come chase the light with me.
