Title: As You Walk Away Writer: Robert Culpeper

Each morning I awaken, With the thought of someone on my mind; I'm in such a hurry, Yet, I have so much time. When I arrive at my destination I frantically look around; I inquire whoever should pass, Alas, you cannot be found! I'm beginning to lose hope. What if you're not here? Is everything alright? I'm panic-stricken with fear. Just as my glimmering light Slowly begins to fade... I feel a familiar touch, And hear my name. All shame and remorse Has instantly been replaced, For whenever you're near My heart shines on my face. The moments that pass Seem like glorified years: Then the sound that seperates us Almost bring tears. Before we part A special minute we share The floor has left us, We are now standing on air. If it were possible This is where we'd stay, Sadly, as the wind changes I must watch as you walk away.
