[Verse]
She watches him with those wandering eyes
He’s chasing dreams in someone else’s skies
She whispers her heart but he doesn’t hear
Too young
He says
As she holds back a tear
[Chorus]
But one day she'll rise like the sun in his world
Not just a shadow
No longer the girl
She'll stand in the light
Her love burning true
Hoping he’ll see her the way she sees him too
[Verse 2]
He laughs with strangers
They come and they go
She’s the constant he’s yet to know
She waits in silence
A story untold
Her heart is young
But her love is bold
[Chorus]
But one day she'll rise like the sun in his world
Not just a shadow
No longer the girl
She'll stand in the light
Her love burning true
Hoping he’ll see her the way she sees him too
[Bridge]
She dreams of a day when the timing feels right
When her love’s no longer a thief in the night
She’s growing stronger with every hour
A girl becoming a woman with power
[Chorus]
And one day she'll rise like the sun in his world
Not just a shadow
No longer the girl
She'll stand in the light
Her love burning true
Hoping he’ll see her the way she sees him too
