No Race, No Route, No Finish Line (Part 3)

Just reflecting on her life's journey made her feel physically, mentally and emotionally drained. She felt that she had been running all the time in what seemed like the KL, PJ, Boston and LA Marathon all rolled in one for more than 17 years. The exhilaration and adrenalin rush that she got from running from PJ to Madison, from Madison to PJ, from PJ to Bonn, from PJ to Perth, from the uni to the ministry and back again, has finally subsided and left her thoroughly exhausted.
It's high time to hang her running shoes. No more running, no more hiding, no more stopping for no reason, and no more walking to nowhere. At last, it's time to heal/heel(?). To be continued ....

Baby Come To Me
(Patti Austin & James Ingram)
Thinkin' back in time
When love was only in my mind
I realize
Ain't no second chance
You've got to hold on to romance
Don't let it slide
There's a special kind of magic in the air
When you find another heart that needs to share
Baby, come to me
Let me put my arms around you
This was meant to be
And I'm oh so glad I found you
Need you ev'ry day
Gotta have your love around me
Baby, always stay
'Cause I can't go back to livin' without you
Spendin' ev'ry dime
To keep you talkin' on the line
That's how it was
And all those walks together
Out in any kind of weather
Just because
There's a brand-new way
Of looking at your life
When you know that love
Is standing by your side
Baby, come to me
Let me put my arms around you
This was meant to be
And I'm oh so glad I found you
Need you ev'ry day
Gotta have your love around me
Baby, always stay
'Cause I can't go back to livin' without you
The nights can be cold
There's a chill to ev'ry evenin'
When you're all alone
Don't talk anymore
'Cause you know that I'll be here
To keep you warm
(Oh, darling keep me warm)
Baby, come to me (come to me)
Let me put my arms around you
This was meant to be (my love)
And I'm oh so, glad I found you
(Oh, so glad I found you)
Need you ev'ry day (ev'ry day)
Gotta have your love around me
(Gotta have you)
Baby, always stay
'Cause I can't go back to livin' without you
Come to me
(Let me put my arms around you)
Let me put my arms around you
This was meant to be
(Hey, I need you ev'ry day, baby)
And I'm oh, so glad I found you
Need you ev'ry day
Gotta have your love around me
(Gotta have you and I want you to stay)
Baby, always stay
'Cause I can't go back to livin' without you
Come to me (come to me)
Let me put my arms around you
(Love me, love me, baby)
This was meant to be
And I'm oh so glad I found you....
