[Verse 1] I remember you, my inner child — the girl I used to be, catching sunlight in your hands as if it could never hurt you. You lived in stories, barefoot summers, believing every open door was meant for you, believing every wish would find a place to land. [Pre‑Chorus] But somewhere in the turning years, you drifted gently out of view — a quiet song I almost forgot to hear. [Chorus] Where did you go, little dreamer? I search the corners where your laughter lived. Where did you go, my bright believer? All I find now are echoes softened by time. [Verse 2] I trace the memories, soft little footprints, hoping they might lead me back to you. A spark of wonder, a breath of courage — I feel them flicker, wanting to bloom. [Pre‑Chorus 2] And in the quiet of tonight, I hear you whisper through the dark — not gone at all, just waiting to be found. [Chorus] Where did you go, little dreamer? I search the corners where your laughter lived. Where did you go, my bright believer? All I find now are echoes softened by time. [Bridge (soft, almost spoken)] Maybe joy was never lost — just hidden under all the noise. Maybe I can choose again, turn my mind toward the light, the way I once did without trying. [Final Chorus] Where did you go, little dreamer? I feel you reaching from the quiet now. Where did you go, my bright believer? I’m learning how to find my way to you. [Outro (whispered)] So I make a quiet vow… I can return to myself.
