When the Lights Go Down...

When the sun has set and the music fades,
when the lights have gone down and you've cleared the stage,
what speaks to your heart and makes you move?
What whispers into your soul to soothe?
Who do you see yourself to be; who is it that you want to see?
Where is home and all that connects to the deepest parts of your inner self?
When you rest your head and close your eyes, when you dream of a life beyond tonight,
when the lights go down and the music fades, will you still be you; will I still be me?

Wait for me...

Wait for me...when the sun is bright, when the clouds roll in or the moon is high.

Wait for me...when resolve grows weak, when my heart is still, when I cannot speak.

Wait for me...when the air is cold, when I say goodbye, when I'm feeling bold.

Wait for me...when I just can't be, when I walk away, when I turn to leave.

Wait for me...when I don't return, when I let you go, when I never learn.
