Verse 1
I have dreamed of halls I’ve never walked in,
Heard familiar voices call my name.
Felt the warmth of hands I cannot remember,
Still somehow I miss them all the same.
I have stood beside an unknown shoreline,
Watching waves bring whispers to my feet.
Tell me how a heart can ache for something
It has never held… and still can’t seem to leave.
Pre-Chorus
Maybe some homes are written in the blood.
Maybe some doors remember us before we arrive.
Chorus
So what do you call the place
Your soul keeps searching for?
The rooms you’ve never entered,
The love you somehow mourn?
What do you name the grief
Of missing something never known?
Tell me why it feels like I’ve been homesick
For a place I’ve never called my own.
Verse 2
Maybe there’s a house beyond remembering,
Standing somewhere just outside my reach.
Windows glowing warm against forever,
Keeping every word I couldn’t speak.
Maybe there were people there who knew me,
Knew the shape of every future scar.
Maybe love existed there before me…
And I have spent my life trying to get back where they are.
Pre-Chorus
Because some ache feels older than this lifetime.
Some longing doesn’t belong to memory alone.
Chorus
So what do you call the place
Your soul keeps searching for?
The arms you’ve never fallen in,
The peace you still mourn?
What do you name the grief
Of loving something unseen?
Tell me why it feels like I’ve been haunted
By a home that only visits me in dreams.
Bridge (ORCHESTRA ASCENDS)
And if I meet it only in the silence…
If I know it only through the ache…
If some part of me belonged there once
Before this body, before this name…
Then maybe longing is its own remembering.
Maybe grief is proof of something true.
Because no heart invents this kind of hunger.
No soul mourns what never mattered.
So if I am reaching through lifetimes for a doorway…
Let it be because somewhere…
Something once reached back for me too.
