[Intro: Warm open-tuned acoustic guitar fingerpicking, quiet and spacious] [Verse 1] Light streams across the glass hallway Footsteps pause beside the water's quiet sound Just a fleeting glance, never meant to stay Hiding childhood wishes deep within the ground [Verse 2] From the far end of the quiet line A small voice called out through the air No name spoken, yet a tone divine Knowing me as if always standing there [Verse 3] Standing on two feet, dark curly fur against the gate Paws resting soft, eyes locked without a doubt Came to run an errand, caught by sudden fate Leaving as a man found, walking out [Instrumental: Fingerpicked acoustic guitar melody, sparse and unhurried] [Bridge] Before a knock can fall, a door swings wide A waiting heart answers from inside [Final Chorus] That morning you called out from afar Through glowing glass, a soft and quiet plea I was answering right from the start Here begins our long walk, wild and free [Outro] The calling voice unravels soft into the morning sun
