[Intro]
0:01
Verse 1
0:10
Once in a vision I saw her drifting slow
0:10
Floating with the clouds where the soft winds go
0:18
She was searching for love, for a hand to hold
0:24
She whispered my name, then let me go
0:31
I reached through the sky but she slipped away
0:37
Like a half-told truth I couldn’t make stay
0:43
She left me a promise in the quiet air
0:50
Said, “If you believe, I’ll still be there”
0:56
Pre-Chorus
1:04
Now the night keeps asking what I already know
1:04
Some dreams don’t die, they just move slow
1:10
Chorus
1:17
I’ll keep searching for the promise she made
1:17
Through the salt of my tears, through the light and the shade
1:22
If love’s just a dream, let me dream it true
1:28
If hope is a lie, I still choose you
1:34
I’ll keep searching, even lost and afraid
1:39
I’ll keep searching for the promise she made
1:46
Verse 2
1:53
Lost in my dreams, she fades from view
1:53
Like a setting moon I never outgrew
1:59
The ocean rolls in, tastes like goodbye
2:06
Every wave asks me why I still try
2:12
The sun melts the lies I want to believe
2:18
But truth doesn’t heal—it just makes me see
2:25
That wanting her hurts, but giving up hurts more
2:31
So I stand right here, staring at the shore
2:38
Pre-Chorus
2:44
If love’s a road that leads through pain
2:44
I’ll walk it barefoot in the rain
2:47
Chorus
2:55
I’ll keep searching for the promise she made
2:55
Through the salt of my tears, through the light and the shade
3:00
If love’s just a dream, let me dream it true
3:06
If hope is a lie, I still choose you
3:12
I’ll keep searching, even lost and afraid
3:17
I’ll keep searching for the promise she made
3:25
Bridge
3:27
Do love and dreams ever come true
3:27
Or am I just running from the truth
3:30
Somewhere between letting go and holding on
3:34
I still hear her voice when the night’s gone
3:38
She said, “Be free,” but freedom burns
3:44
When every road still leads to her
3:47
Final Chorus
3:50
I’ll keep searching for the promise she made
3:50
When the stars go dark and my faith starts to fade
3:54
If time takes everything, it won’t take this
3:58
I’d rather be broken than faithless
4:02
I’ve lost her now, but I’m not afraid
4:05
I’ll keep searching…
4:09
I’ll keep searching…
4:11
For the promise she madeOnce in a vision… she called my name
4:15
And I’ve been chasing that echo ever since
4:26
