Verse 1
In sleep he sang to me,
In dreams he came again.
A voice I never meant to keep,
Yet one I can’t forget.
I know the way he walks,
Before he comes into the light.
A trace of him upon the air,
And suddenly he’s close.
I know his name…
But never see his face.
Only a mask,
And eyes I can’t replace.
Pre-Chorus
I tell myself to let it go,
To leave it all behind.
But every time I hear his voice,
It finds me every time.
Chorus
He calls my name…
And something in me answers.
Not because I have to—
Because I want to.
His voice is like a memory
I never meant to keep.
The closer that I let him in,
The harder it is to leave.
It’s only moments,
Only glances,
Nothing more than that.
Yet somehow…
I always find
My way…
Back.
Verse 2
Perhaps it’s just the mystery.
Perhaps it’s all unknown.
Or maybe it’s the quiet way
He makes me feel at home.
I’ve never seen the man beneath
The mask he always wears.
Still somehow I can recognize
His eyes from anywhere.
Bridge
If I could see his face,
Would anything be different?
Or would I still be drawn
To everything I shouldn’t miss?
Maybe it’s the secret.
Maybe it’s the space between.
Maybe some stories
Are never meant
To be seen.
Final Chorus
In sleep he sang to me.
In dreams he came once more.
A voice that lingers long after
I’ve closed the door.
I know his name.
I know his eyes.
The way he moves,
The way time slows.
I’ve never seen his face…
Yet somehow…
He’s the one
My heart
Already knows
