New Light Waiting

I kept standing in the shadows Of a dream that slipped away Every memory kept pulling Like the rain before the day I was staring at the silence At the place where you had gone Never saw the light beside me Waiting there all along Every tear became a window Every night became a sign There were colors in the distance Calling softly through my mind I was holding broken pieces Thinking nothing else was real But the heart can learn to open And the scars can slowly heal When one door closes in the dark Another opens with a spark But we keep looking back behind While new stars wait for us to find Oh life keeps moving, don’t you know New flowers bloom where old dreams go Sometimes happiness arrives In another shape, another light Maybe love returns in whispers Maybe hope comes dressed in blue Maybe roads we never planned for Lead us somewhere bright and new Every ending leaves an echo But it doesn’t mean we’re done There’s a thousand hidden sunrises Waiting after storms are gone When one door closes in the dark Another opens with a spark But we keep looking back behind While new stars wait for us to find Oh life keeps moving, don’t you know New flowers bloom where old dreams go Sometimes happiness arrives In another shape, another light I can feel the sky changing Like the night before the dawn Every step I thought was broken Was just leading me along No more staring at the old world No more chains around my heart If one dream has faded slowly Maybe this is where I start Final Chorus When one door closes — let it go Another waits with golden glow And even if the tears still fall There’s still a chance beyond it all Oh life keeps dancing through the pain Like sunlight after heavy rain Sometimes happiness survives In another shape, another life
