Lyrics
I sleep where the shadows forget to leave
Wrapped in the silence of make-believe
I trace the sky on my windowpane
Counting the echoes that call my name
Mama said the stars would answer
If I sang my wish out loud
But the night just holds its breath
And I'm still lost in the sound
Is there someone out there listening
To a voice so small, so far?
I've been waiting by the quiet
Underneath a frozen star
If love is still a promise
Let it find me in this place
I am the child who waits
The clock has forgotten how to chime
The leaves don't dance like they did in time
I hold a name no one speaks aloud
A dream unspoken, wrapped in clouds
Mama said that love would find me
Even if it came too late
But hope is getting heavier
And I'm still by the gate
Is there someone out there listening
To a voice so small, so far?
I've been waiting by the quiet
Underneath a frozen star
If love is still a promise
Let it find me in this place
I am the child who waits
Is there someone out there listening
To a voice so small, so far?
I've been waiting by the quiet
Underneath a frozen star
If love is still a promise
Let it find me in this place
I am the child who waits
I still believe in lullabies
Even when they never come
Is there someone still remembering
What it means to be found?
I'm still here in the silence
Where love makes no sound
I am the child who waits
