Chasing

John

My song, produced and performed by ai.

Lyrics:
I reach for light that dances
Just beyond my fingertips
Like a child chasing fireflies
As they flicker in the dusk

I’m breathlessly running
Even though I know it will be
Like chasing the horizon
As it runs away from me

My heart grows tired of hunting for the promise of tomorrow
It feels as though contentment just doesn’t want to be followed
While I chased the future has my goal slipped through my hands?
Has it proven so illusive because it’s right here where I stand?

No, happiness is not found in the catching at all
But in the breathless running, in the hope that never dies
In how we rise each time we fall, believing something beautiful lies
Beyond the next sunrise.
