[Intro — Piano & Cello] Soft piano. One low cello note. A breath before the first step. [Verse 1] I stood before a road Not knowing where it led A thousand quiet questions Were turning in my head I waited for a sign I waited for the light But morning kept on coming Whether I moved or not [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I don’t need the answer Maybe I just need one step [Chorus] Before the meaning arrives I will move Before I know the reason I will choose One small step One open door Maybe that is all A life is asking for Before the meaning arrives I’ll begin [Verse 2] I crossed another border And nothing seemed to change The sky was still the same The road still had no name But somewhere in the silence Something moved in me The world did not become new I simply learned to see [Pre-Chorus] Maybe every little action Leaves a light we cannot see [Chorus] Before the meaning arrives I will move Before I know the reason I will choose One kind word One honest try One more morning Underneath this sky Before the meaning arrives I’ll begin [Bridge] A road becomes a story Only after we have walked A meeting finds its meaning Long after we have talked The good we leave behind us May grow where we can’t see A quiet act of kindness Becomes another seed [Final Chorus] Before the meaning arrives Take one step You don’t have to see the ending Not just yet If your heart is tired Move slowly if you must Even the smallest action Can become a kind of trust Before the meaning arrives Something has already begun [Outro — Cello] One step One breath One morning And meaning Will catch up someday
