I walk along the avenue.
I never thought I’d meet a girl like you.
Meet a girl like you.

With auburn hair and tawny eyes.
The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through.
Hypnotize me through.

[Chorus:]
And I ran.
I ran so far away.
I just ran.
I ran all night and day.
I couldn’t get away.

A cloud appears above your head.
A beam of light comes shining down on you.
Shining down on you.

The cloud is moving nearer still.
Aurora Borealis comes in view.
Aurora comes in view.

[Chorus]

Reached out a hand to touch your face.
You’re slowly disappearing from my view.
Disappearing from my view.

Reached out a hand to try again.
I’m floating in a beam of light with you.
Beam of light with you.

[Chorus x2]
