From Here, to the Sky

[Prologue] Morning light rests on me doesn't answer just stays here Something new is waking up I let it draw me forward [Intro] [Verse 1] I stumbled, then I looked above the sky was wider than I'd known Days went by without an answer still, morning came The quiet wind against my face said the long way was all right Even the time I thought had stopped was flowing at its own pace [Pre-Chorus 1] The doubt is still here with me my heart keeps beating anyway I follow the smallest voice I trust and step into the day [Chorus 1] I keep walking toward the light warm ground under my feet Even the days I got it wrong belong to the road ahead I reach out toward the light my smile can take its time and little by little the whole world opens wide [Post-Chorus] I'm okay as I am I'm okay I'm still moving [Verse 2] I spent some nights comparing lives until I barely felt like me And when the crying finally stopped I was the one still there I gathered pieces of old dreams I thought I'd dropped for good and found my heart had held a light I never knew it could [Pre-Chorus 2] Fear doesn't have to leave me I can shake and still look up I don't have to be somebody else to see the open sky [Chorus 2] I keep moving toward the light the wind is at my back Even days that seemed to stand still were moving all along I turn my face toward the light tears don't blur the sky the world keeps moving on and so do I [Instrumental Passage] [Bridge | intimate; time relaxes; piano carries restrained inner colour while pulse stays human] The days when nothing went right the nights I spent in tears all of them have brought me here More than the light I lost there's a light I want to keep and it's here with me now [Build] I breathe in slowly lift my eyes something in me that had gone still starts moving now [Final Chorus] I step out toward the light the sky goes on and on The footprints I left while I was lost had turned into a road I keep moving toward the light I don't need the answer yet from here beneath the open sky the world begins now [Chorus Tag] Toward the light toward the light [Outro] One small step lights up today I don't look back I walk toward the light [Coda]
