[Intro][Acoustic Guitar]
(slow fingerpicking, soft hums)
[Verse 1][Emotional]
I used to dream in color
Skies that had no end
Built castles out of wishes
With imaginary friends
Now the days feel crowded
Bills and deadlines tight
But in the quiet moments
I still see that light
[Pre-Chorus][Hopeful]
Little me is waiting
Hand outstretched to mine
Reminding me it’s never
Too late to try
[Chorus][Hook][Emotional, Hopeful]
I’m learning to believe again
To find the colors in the gray
Digging up those buried plans
That grown-up life pushed away
I’m telling her I’m listening
I’m letting her lead the way
Little me still believes
So I’ll try again today
[Instrumental Break][Acoustic Guitar + Soft Strings]
(humming melody)
[Verse 2][Emotional]
I used to talk to stars
And trust that they would hear
Sing songs without a reason
Laugh without the fear
Now my voice is softer
But my heart knows truth
The world can try to age me
But it can’t steal my youth
[Pre-Chorus][Hopeful]
Little me is waiting
With dreams behind her eyes
Reminding me it’s never
Too late to try
[Chorus][Hook][Emotional, Hopeful]
I’m learning to believe again
To find the colors in the gray
Digging up those buried plans
That grown-up life pushed away
I’m telling her I’m listening
I’m letting her lead the way
Little me still believes
So I’ll try again today
[Bridge][Introspective]
I thought I lost her
Under weight of what’s expected
But she’s right here
Never gone, just neglected
[Instrumental Break][Acoustic Guitar Solo]
(simple melodic picking)
[Chorus][Hook][Hopeful]
I’m learning to believe again
To find the colors in the gray
Digging up those buried plans
That grown-up life pushed away
I’m telling her I’m listening
I’m letting her lead the way
Little me still believes
So I’ll try again today
[Outro][Ethereal]
(soft humming fades)
Little me still believes
So I’ll try again today
