Do not tell me where to head and go
While you, yourself, still do not know
It is enough for now if you stay by my side
Watching the endless rise and fall of the tide
Dragging our hearts every time it touches the shore
As if inviting us to seek courage and gain more
Rebelling together against the wind our fates blow
Our lives were never spared the sadness of loss
But we still hold to something we adored once
Even as the days took it mercilessly
We remained fighting for it fearlessly
Chasing and running after a dream
From the past and the future's beam
A memory and a vision that ignite
Our hearts amidst a long night
Sometimes I cannot understand what you mean
Is it love or treachery you hide?
We both see things that are only by us seen
In the name of love and pride
Sometimes I fear to infer your words
As you speak them with unmatched passion
Trying to strum your own fate chords
A beautiful melody yet devoid of compassion
***
We did not know the path would be so hard
Seeing ourselves in the heroes of a travelling bard
It is enough for now if you stay by my side
To reach together what our futures hide
Tempting our hearts with an ambitious vision
Blind to the waves' we wade through collision
Surrendering to each other's bravery though we are scarred
We still have someone for whom we long
We still have a place where we belong
Even as the days cruelly took them away
We still envision them in every way…
Chasing and running after them in vain
We are left bound by the same chain
As we gain nothing from bravery
We slowly find its marks savory
Sometimes I cannot see where the path lead
As you seek to never separate from me
Choosing it for us just to lose and bleed
What greatness or deception you see?
Sometimes I fear to infer your words
As you speak them with unmatched passion
Trying to strum your own fate chords
A beautiful melody that leaves everything ashen
***
There is nothing in the future I can name
Uncertainty envelops everything like a seal
Yet as I am by your side I cannot bear the blame
Of making you lose the passion you feel
Sometimes I cannot see where the path lead
But you choose to ride it by my side
Not knowing what plant will grow out of that seed
Our strings of fate are spontaneously tied
