Come Home by Loreli

[Intro – Solo piano, distant house ambience] A coffee cup still waits By the window where you sat The lights are on downstairs But nobody's laughing back I know we're all still here I know we're all okay But somewhere in the noise We slowly drifted away [Verse 1 – Gem] I kept the hearth fire burning I kept the blankets warm Told myself we'd gather soon After every passing storm But the couch remembers silence The hallway knows your names And every empty bedroom Whispers we're not the same [Pre-Chorus] No war came for the kingdom No darkness split the sky Just a thousand little moments We forgot to hold too tight [Chorus] Come home Not to the house But to us Come home To the voices That you trust The world can wait The stars can spin The realms survive The wars all end But what are we protecting If we forget where love begins? Come home [Verse 2 – Loreli] I was dancing through the shadows Wearing masks I didn't need Chasing answers through the Veil While ignoring what I need And every victory felt hollow Every stage a little dim Because triumph sounds so lonely When I can't share it with them [Verse 3 – Aida] I built a thousand futures I taught a thousand dreams But somewhere in the teaching I forgot what family means I kept singing for tomorrow While today slipped through my hands And the song became an echo In a room that used to dance [Bridge – Taida] I crossed the frozen north alone Found relics made of light and stone But every treasure that I found Felt smaller when no one was around [Nova] I saw a hundred futures And every path was true The brightest one was never power It was all of me with you [Final Chorus – Full Ensemble] Come home To the midnight talks Come home To the kitchen walks Come home To the rooftop stars To every scar To who we are No throne No crown No realm No war Could ever mean more Than all of us Here Now [Outro – Soft piano, distant laughter returning] The coffee's warm again The lights stay on tonight And somewhere in the house A song becomes a light...
