Running
Sarah Brightman(莎拉布萊曼) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In shadow of my soul
Ever seeking the horizon
For promises untold
I dream of silent oceans
And I sing of waters blue
With the crossing of angels
To a distant shore so welcoming
Where I was free to roam
In a land of ancient mystery
That I could call my own
[Chorus]
This is me and you
And we are running
To change the world
Where hope is shining through
Gaia's green and blue
And we are running
To save the world
That we're about to lose
We'll be running
Watch it coming
Green is shining through
Love is rising
Worlds colliding
Green is shining through
[Chorus]
Can you hear the distant beating
Of passion born of old
Reaching out to far horizons
Of prophecy untold
I will wander through the desert
I will seek you in my hand
In the silence of shadows
In palaces of sand
Then a voice called from the wilderness
Whose spirit held the key
To a world and soul united
Forever strong and free
In Sarah Brightman's song "Running", she expresses her yearning for something more out of life. The opening lines set a introspective mood as she describes herself feeling sad and silent, hidden within the depths of her soul. She sings about looking for something just beyond the horizon, something with promises untold. The following lines depict an idyllic picture of a peaceful ocean she dreams of, with the metaphor of angels assisting her journey. The verse ends with the singer finding a land of ancient mystery that she could call her own, a place where she felt free to roam.
The chorus of "Running" begins with the declaration that "this is me and you" and both are running together towards a common goal - to change the world where hope can shine. The image of Gaia's green and blue conveys the idea of the Earth as a living being, with its natural environment of forests, rivers and oceans that we must protect. The second line in this section poignantly concludes, that we are running to save the world that we are about to lose. The subsequent lines repeat the chorus but add an upbeat note of urgency to the lyrics as if the world is in dire need of our help.

I was sad and I was silent
I was feeling unhappy and quiet
In shadow of my soul
In the darkness within me
Ever seeking the horizon
Always looking for something better
For promises untold
For things that have yet to happen
I dream of silent oceans
I imagine peaceful waters
And I sing of waters blue
And I express my longing for blue water
With the crossing of angels
With the help of heavenly beings
Brought forth to guide me through
Sent to lead me forward
To a distant shore so welcoming
To a far-off land that invites me
Where I was free to roam
Where I had the freedom to explore
In a land of ancient mystery
In a place with an intriguing history
That I could call my own
That I could claim as mine
This is me and you
This is who we are together
And we are running
And we are moving forward
To change the world
To make the world a better place
Where hope is shining through
Where optimism is visible
Gaia's green and blue
The earth's natural spaces and water
To save the world
To rescue the world from harm
That we're about to lose
That is in danger of being destroyed
We'll be running
We will keep moving forward
Watch it coming
Be ready for what is ahead
Green is shining through
The presence of nature is overpowering
Love is rising
Love is growing stronger
Worlds colliding
Different perspectives are coming together
Can you hear the distant beating
Do you hear the far-off rhythm
Of passion born of old
Of long-standing, intense feelings
Reaching out to far horizons
Expanding beyond current limitations
Of prophecy untold
Of predictions yet to be revealed
I will wander through the desert
I will explore a barren, isolated place
I will seek you in my hand
I will search for you within myself
In the silence of shadows
In the quietest, darkest moments
In palaces of sand
In the grandeur of an empty and temporary environment
Then a voice called from the wilderness
Suddenly, a message came from an unexpected place
Whose spirit held the key
Whose essence contained the solution
To a world and soul united
To a place where the world and the individual are in harmony
Forever strong and free
Permanently resilient and unrestricted

I vow to Thee my country
All earthly things above
Entire and whole and perfect
The service of my love
The love that asks no questions
The love that stands the test
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best
The love that never falters
The love that pays the price
The love that makes undaunted
The final sacrifice
And there’s another country
I’ve heard of long ago
Most dear to those who love her
Most great to those who know
We may not count her armies
We may not see her king
Her fortress is a faithful heart
Her pride is suffering
And soul by soul and silently
Her shining bounds increase
And her ways are ways of gentleness
And all her paths are peace

I was sad and I was silent
In shadow of my soul
Ever seeking the horizon
For promises untold
I dreamed of silent oceans
And I sang of waters blue
With the crossing of angels
Brought forth to guide me through
To a distant shore so welcoming
Where I was free to roam
In a land of ancient mystery
That I could call my own
This is me and you
And we are running
To change the world
Where hope is shining through
Sky is green and blue
And we are running
To save the world
That we're about to lose
We'll be running, watch it coming
Green is shining through
Love is rising, worlds colliding
Green is shining through
Shining, shining, shining
This is me and you
And we are running
To change the world
Where hope is shining through
Gaya's green and blue
And we are running
Until green is…
