[Verse 1] The world leaned in, and time stood still. I met your eyes— I always will. So small you were, but in that space— the universe had found its place. [First Chorus] I knew you once, before this place— before your breath, before your face. You looked at me, and I could tell: we’d always known each other well. You weren’t just new. You were always known. The first light I could call my own. [Verse 2] You opened your eyes and so did I. Not to the room— but to the why. You didn’t need to say a word. The way you breathed was all I heard. So much unknown, but still, I knew— my life began by holding you. [Second Chorus] I think we met before the skies, before the breath, before the cries. You brought a piece of something wide— a stardust memory, now alive. You weren’t just born. You came back through— the first light I had ever known of you. [Bridge] Pieces of you I’d seen before— in dreams, in songs, in nothing more. A shadow passed, a silent trace— then landed here, in time and space. [Final Chorus] I think you chose me long ago, from stardust dreams I’ll never know. But when you looked into my eyes— I felt the world begin to rise. You weren’t just born. You came back home. The first light that I’ve ever known.
