What If Virtual Youth Choir by Eric Whitacre Lyrics
You’re hiding, (Nope,) surviving, (Yep.) You’re stubborn, too. (True.)
And you’re frightened, (I’m not,) not knowing (What?) your heart. (And you?)
I’m trying (To?) to question, (And?) the answer’s near. (Where?)
Here:
I yearn to soar, (So?) so there has to be much more (No.)
Yes, there must be another way
It’s time to (Fly?) That’s right. (Then try explaining slow.)
We have to go (Where?) high above (The wall?) of course. (We’d fall!)
Perhaps, but then we’d know (Know?) all the things (Like what?) like wings and worlds we knew before
(You’re not making sense, you yearn to soar, but we don’t have wings anymore.)
I know but there must be another way
What if all this came true? Pure bliss!
What if your wings sailed free? We’d sing!
What would I do?
You’d lift the moon
And make it spin
I’d inspire a choir of sapphire winds
And you? (We’d sing) What song? (Just harmony.)
And we’d sing free in perfect harmony
There must be another way
What if this time your dreams they’d rhyme? (Sublime!)
What if your voice sailed free? (Rejoice!)
And we’d sing free in perfect harmony
There must be another way
And you’re frightened, (I’m not,) not knowing (What?) your heart. (And you?)
I’m trying (To?) to question, (And?) the answer’s near. (Where?)
Here:
I yearn to soar, (So?) so there has to be much more (No.)
Yes, there must be another way
It’s time to (Fly?) That’s right. (Then try explaining slow.)
