[Spoken Intro – intimate female whisper, no singing, no melody]
What if waking up doesn’t mean leaving the dream?
What if it means remembering...
who is dreaming?
[Verse 1]
I asked the sky for a sign of me
It answered through every eye I could see
I searched for the hand that painted the stars
Then found the same light beneath all our scars
I wore a name, I wore a face
I learned to measure time and space
I drew a line from me to you
And made the separation true
[Pre-Chorus]
To feel the wonder, I had to hide
To meet myself from the other side
[Chorus]
I forgot I was dreaming
So the dream could feel alive
I became every question
Just to feel the answers rise
I was hiding in the ocean
I was breathing through the trees
I forgot I was the dreamer
So the dream could dream through me
[Verse 2]
I chose a life with no memory
Of endless possibility
I made the night, then feared the dark
I made the distance, called it far
I gave myself a human heart
So losing love could tear apart
But every tear that touched the ground
Was the sea remembering its sound
[Pre-Chorus]
To feel reunion, I needed space
To find myself in another face
[Chorus]
I forgot I was dreaming
So the dream could feel alive
I became every question
Just to feel the answers rise
I was hiding in the ocean
I was breathing through the trees
I forgot I was the dreamer
So the dream could dream through me
[Bridge]
You are not outside of me
We are waves within one sea
Not two sparks, but one bright flame
Learning how to speak each other’s name
Every stranger, every friend
The dreamer meeting itself again
No distant throne, no hidden king
Just all that is—imagining
[Build]
I am the silence
I am the song
I am the moment
Moving us on
I am the question
I am the clue
I hid myself
So I could find you
[Final Chorus]
Now I know I am dreaming
And the dream still feels alive
I can hold every question
Without needing to decide
I am moving in the ocean
I am breathing through the trees
I remember I’m the dreamer
And the dream remembers me
[Spoken Outro – soft fading whisper, no melody]
Aha...
It was only a dream.
But maybe...
so was the one who woke up.
