Waiting On A Wish

[00:12.73] Little girl at a lonely well
[00:15.66] With the same little tale to tell
[00:18.72] Feeling trapped by the walls that hold her
[00:21.85] Feeling stuck in the story they've told her
[00:24.95] Another day where she fades away
[00:27.98] Never daring to disobey
[00:30.47] So she's dreaming all alone
[00:33.46] Sharing secrets with the stone
[00:37.47] My father told me long ago
[00:40.47] I braved a bitter storm of snow
[00:43.62] Is that a girl I'll ever know again?
[00:50.01] I'm waiting on a wish
[00:51.85] Beneath a thousand treetops
[00:54.64] And as the silver sky stops
[00:57.38] I send a whisper to the water
[01:01.65] Waiting on a wish
[01:03.49] Holding out for someday
[01:06.02] Hoping somehow, some way
[01:08.88] I'll become my father's daughter
[01:13.04] I close my eyes and see
[01:15.48] The girl I'm meant to be
[01:18.65] Is she a part of me
[01:21.23] I've yet to find?
[01:24.57] Wondering, "will she appear?
[01:27.17] Or will I be forever here
[01:30.35] Waiting on a wish?"
[01:37.06] Little girl by a wild wood
[01:39.86] How she tries to be someone good
[01:42.55] But in the shadow the kingdom's caught in
[01:45.26] Somehow, fairness is long forgotten
[01:48.52] So will she rise, or bow her head?
[01:51.69] Will she lead, or just be led?
[01:54.43] Is she the girl she always said she'd be?
[02:00.15] I'm waiting on a wish
[02:02.04] Beneath a thousand treetops
[02:04.68] And as the silver sky stops
[02:07.23] I long to leave the walls behind me
[02:11.62] Waiting on a wish
[02:13.54] Holding out for someday
[02:15.91] Hoping somehow, some way
[02:18.38] There comes a miracle to find me
[02:22.57] I close my eyes and see
[02:25.12] The girl I'm meant to be
[02:28.33] Is she a part of me
[02:30.93] I've had to hide?
[02:34.21] Wondering, "will she appear?
[02:36.79] Or will I spend another year
[02:39.81] Waiting on a wish?"
[02:41.44] They say all you have to do
[02:44.67] To make your wish come true
[02:48.35] Is let it echo, echo, echo, echo
[02:52.82] Your voice will carry through
[02:55.92] And bring that dream to you
[02:59.28] Just like an echo, echo, echo
[03:02.99] Well, I can hear the echo loud and clear
[03:08.60] But I'm still waiting... here
[03:12.88]
[03:31.23] Waiting on a wish...
[03:38.46] Beyond a whisper to the water
[03:43.06] Waiting on a wish
[03:44.99] Is it almost someday?
[03:47.52] Can I somehow, some way
[03:50.18] Learn to be my father's daughter?
[03:57.28] Someone who could fin'lly start
[04:00.06] Start speaking with a fearless heart
[04:03.53] Someone who just might be brave
[04:06.03] Someone no one needs to save
[04:11.54] Well, I can always dream, but then
[04:15.87] I wake up and it's me again
[04:21.65] Waiting on a wish
[04:27.89] Waiting on a wish
[04:35.18] Waiting on a wish
[04:40.03]
