Target
Love's Arrows: Graham Nash's Poetic Pursuit of the Heart
Lyrics
I am an archer
I see myself as an archer
With my arrows and a bow
Equipped with arrows and a bow
And I'm taking aim upon your heart
Taking aim at your heart
By now, I'm sure you know
By now, you likely realize
That the arc of my arrows cut
The trajectory of my arrows
Through air and space and light
Cuts through air, space, and light
Aiming at your very soul
Aiming at the very essence of your being
My target tonight
You are my target tonight
And I hope my aim is true
I hope my aim is accurate
And that you never feel a thing
So that you don't feel any pain
As my arrow flies to find you
My arrow seeks you out
Bringing love's eternal sting
Bringing the lasting pain of love
And though we are connected by
We are linked by a shining connection
A sparkling silver light
Yet, there are distances in the clouds
The distances between the clouds
You remain my target tonight
My target tonight
My target tonight
-My target tonight
-When I turn my eye towards you
When I focus on you
My quiver feels so full
My quiver is filled with anticipation
The bow is taut
The bow is ready, and I feel the tension
And I'm feeling the pull
There's a magnetic pull
My dream appears before me in
A vision of my dream in morning light
The early morning light
Because you are there beside me
Cause there you are beside me
You are my target tonight
My target tonight
My target tonight
-My target tonight
You remain my target tonight
