# **Where Are You Hiding?** **[Intro — Soft, breathy vocals | Atmospheric pads]** Where are you hiding…? I'm waiting for your presence. I never thought it would hurt like this… Come to me… Won't you come to me…? **[Verse 1 — Gentle piano]** I watched the people laugh together, Saw their stories intertwine. Everyone had someone to hold on to… When will someone become mine? I kept waiting for a face to find me, For a voice to call my name. Never knew I'd miss somebody Who was never here to stay. **[Pre-Chorus — Gradually building]** But I didn't know it'd be you… Never thought it'd be you… Someone I could never reach, Someone who could never be… **[Chorus — Emotional, airy vocals]** Where are you hiding? Can't I see you? Can't we laugh? Can't we make a thousand memories, Build a bond that's meant to last? Would I ever hear your voice? Would you ever call me yours? I'm still waiting for your presence… Still standing by this door. **[Verse 2 — Soft, intimate vocals]** When the night pulls me under, I curl up and close my eyes. I imagine you beside me, Like a dream I can't deny. Are you searching for me, too? Do you wonder where I am? Or am I the only fool here Loving someone from a dream? **[Pre-Chorus 2 — Strings begin to rise]** What if we met someday? I know… I know… You wouldn't even know my name. I know… I know… You'd never come my way. **[Power Drop — Brief silence, then deep bass and pads]** Where are you hiding…? Why can't I find you…? **[Bridge — Voice trembling, slowly building]** I never knew that loving someone Could ache without a touch. I tell myself, *“It shouldn't hurt this much…”* Then I miss you twice as much. Find someone else… Try someone new… Another face, another dream… But none of them are you. **[Climax — Powerful vocals, emotional cry]** Could it ever be you? Can't it ever be you? The one I want, the one I dream of… The one I'll never get to know? I'm still waiting for your presence… Still calling out your name… Show yourself… Won't you come to me? **[Final Chorus — Full instrumentation, layered harmonies]** Where are you hiding? Can't you hear me calling you? All these words I keep inside me… All these dreams I can't undo. Would I ever see you smiling? Would we ever get our chance? I'm still waiting for somebody Who may never even exist… **[Outro — Piano and fading pads | Almost whispered]** Where are you hiding…? Won't you…? Please… I'm so tired of waiting… But I'm still waiting… For you…
