Ran Before the Storm

Upwards I climbed
Above me stretched the northern skies
Beneath the great night’s height
I fought alone
I was at war
Both with myself and with it all
My own shadow now my home
No place to call my own
Storms may come
But wild tempests won’t tear me away from your arms
I’ll hold to the good and the true
I’ll weather your storms for the stillness in you
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
All of this time you said I gave too little
But I say you asked for too much
Love’s a two edged sword
And though I’m yours I’m mine
And you’d see if you dared
That our moments were never owned
Only ever were they shared
That for you there must be me
And for me there must be you
Storms may come
But wild tempests won’t tear me away from your arms
I’ll hold to the good and the true
I’ll weather your storms for the stillness in you
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
Ancient love, I ran before the storm
No power to take me, 'cause I was ever yours
Ancient love, I ran before the storm
No power to take me, 'cause I was ever yours
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
That night I ran, ran, ran before the storm
