Where Shall I Go from Here?

Wednesday, 25 March 1998
As a planet circles its sun
To you my heart seems eternally bound
Through an irregular ellipse I run
Drifting nearer and farther, around and around
But always ending up where I began
If only I could get enough speed
To break free of the pull
The relentless attraction, the incessant need
To escape this agonising orbit, this endless cycle
I would finally be freed
As it is, I can discern
The light and warmth you radiate
To come closer, I desperately yearn
But I know what would be my fate
The light would vanish, but the heat would burn
Oh, where shall I go from here
This place where wisdom and emotions clash so violently?
All I ask of you, all I dare
Is that you'll forgive my weakness graciously
And you won't take from me any of that I hold so dear
To you my heart seems eternally bound
Through an irregular ellipse I run
Drifting nearer and farther, around and around
But always ending up where I began
If only I could get enough speed
To break free of the pull
The relentless attraction, the incessant need
To escape this agonising orbit, this endless cycle
I would finally be freed
As it is, I can discern
The light and warmth you radiate
To come closer, I desperately yearn
But I know what would be my fate
The light would vanish, but the heat would burn
Oh, where shall I go from here
This place where wisdom and emotions clash so violently?
All I ask of you, all I dare
Is that you'll forgive my weakness graciously
And you won't take from me any of that I hold so dear
