[Intro]
Stage lights glow; a breath holds for the vow to rise.
[Verse 1]
In velvet glow I chase a flawless high C
My breath tightens, the hall sighs into hush
A rogue pigeon dives, snatching the leaf from my palm
It flaps away, and I laugh, chasing the moment back to the sky
[Pre-Chorus]
Between breaths I ask my heart what it truly seeks
Is it the aria I crave or your feathered streak?
[Chorus]
Is my heart with the aria or with your wing?
If you lift the leaf, does the dream take wing?
I crave the climb where the high C lights the night,
Love or aria, which will I choose to ignite?
[Verse 2]
Back on the stage, the pigeon circles like a comic clock
Again you sweep away the leaf, a playful thief of focus
I steady the cue, promise the night a salvageable aria
Perhaps the truest love is the art I summon when you tease
[Pre-Chorus]
Between two breaths I ask what the heart really wants
Winged muse or the peak I chase beyond the front?
[Chorus]
Is my heart with the aria or with your wing?
Does the leaf stay the star, or does the dream take wing?
I crave the climb where the high C crowns the night,
Love or aria, which one wins the light?
[Bridge]
The hall settles; you perch and bow as if you approve
I raise my chin and let the breath decide
I choose the peak and let the aria rise
Maybe love and art share the spotlight tonight
[Chorus]
Is my heart with the aria or with your wing?
Does the leaf stay the star, or does the dream take wing?
I crave the climb where the high C crowns the night,
Love or aria, which one wins the light?
[Outro]
I bow; dawn finds my vow clear: keep climbing, keep choosing the light
