Forever now, I still chase thee

I hide, I run, I wait, I fall,
Gardens of beauty, I ignore 'em all.
Lovely fragrance passes by me,
Forever now, I still chase thee.


I can't give up, so beautiful you are,
Up those towers tall, you seem so far.
What can I do and lure you to me,
Forever now, I still chase thee.

Rare moments in life when I felt you touch,
Feeling of glory and joy as much.
To feel that thrill of flying free,
Forever now, I still chase thee.


Hope wakes the dawn, shall find you today,
Dusk is a sad tinge, waits for another day.
Back again on the running spree,
Forever now, I still chase thee.


Tired and lost, where am I wrong,
Is it only me, waiting so long.
Bright faces around, filled with glee,
Forever now, I still chase thee.

I pause and beg, show me a path to go,
Shadows like mine, behind faces that glow.
To each his own, only a self can see,
Forever now, I still chase thee.

Beyond the walls of this garden's bounty,
I see you flutter, away from me.
Laughing aloud, you seem to be,
Forever now, I still chase thee.


So helpless seems the world out there,
Hunger, pain, helplessness and despair.
You pass by them, not once they see,
Forever now, I still chase thee.

Hope atleast was always with me,
But I failed to see the great mercy.
Thanking my luck, I feel so free,
Forever now, I have chased thee.


At last I rise and start to care,
To give that world, my hope to share.
You flutter and sit in my open heart,
Forever now, Oh happiness, you 've been my part.
