[Intro: shimmering synth, train wheels] [Verse 1] Somewhere there’s a stranger laughing At a joke I haven’t heard Someone has a favorite story Still completely without words Someone walking through a city Has no idea I exist And perhaps a year from now I’ll know the shape of how they kiss [Chorus] HERE’S TO THE PEOPLE I HAVEN’T MET YET THE WORLDS I HAVEN’T SEEN The conversations waiting In the spaces in between I love the hearts already near me But life keeps opening the gate How can I pretend my story’s finished When connection still awaits? [Bridge] It doesn’t make today’s love smaller To admit tomorrow’s unknown The heart can honor where it’s living While remaining free to grow [Final Chorus] HERE’S TO THE PEOPLE I HAVEN’T MET YET AND EVERYONE I LOVE TODAY May no new light erase an old one May they simply find their place [Outro] Somewhere another hello is coming.
