Don't Shy Away

It's dawn upon the mountain

The birds are flying high overhead

And I've got to cross the valley

The life I had before - it is dead

And now I'm walking the tightrope

The tightrope I've tied

I walk in the blazing sun

He's waiting there for me, this runaway bride

I've got to keep moving on

Are you praying for the sunset?

Are you begging for the dying light?

I've never longed like I do right now

Yearning only for the start of night

Don't shy away, shy away love

Don't shy away, shy away my love

Remember all that we dared to dream

Wait for me at the end of summer

The man on the horizon

He offers me the future I crave

And there's no safety net beneath me

I'll risk it all for him and be brave

And now I'm walking the tightrope

The tightrope I've tied

I walk in the blazing sun

He's waiting there for me, this runaway bride

I've got to keep moving on

Are you praying for the sunset?

Are you begging for the dying light?

I've never longed like I do right now

Yearning only for the start of night

Don't shy away, shy away love

Don't shy away, shy away my love

Remember all that we dared to dream

Wait for me at the end of summer

Won't look back again...

Don't shy away, shy away love

Don't shy away, shy away my love

Remember all that we dared to dream

Wait for me at the end of summer
