Under Star-Dust Skies

[Intro] The night wears a velvet hush, a breath between each star A secret trembles in my chest, too shy to say how far [Verse 1] For years I held a whisper tight, a map inside my skin I practiced near my pillow walls, where dawn would never win The constellations hummed in code I tried to understand But words moved slow and trembled when I reached for them with hand [Pre-Chorus] But eyes awake can see through fear, the silence starts to crack A glimmer crawls along the skin, a tremor in the ache I lack [Chorus] Tonight I speak the unspoken dream, let it drift into the night Let gravity loosen its tight grip, reveal what burns so bright The secret blooms in moonlit air, a fragile, fearless vow Under star-dust skies I came alive, I tell you now [Verse 2] The night uncurls like a letter, inked softly in my sleeve The doubt dissolves in silver light, in what I choose to believe I weigh the cost of truth aloud, the risk of what is said But courage grows where shadows fade; I loosen every thread [Pre-Chorus] A thousand tiny could-be's fall away with each breath I take What if this confession is the key I needed to wake [Chorus] Tonight I speak the unspoken dream, let it drift into the night Let gravity loosen its tight grip, reveal what burns so bright The secret blooms in moonlit air, a fragile, fearless vow Under star-dust skies I came alive, I tell you now [Bridge] If dawn should break this vow in light, I’ll still have chosen right To carry that star-born whisper through the waking, fearless night [Chorus] Tonight I speak the unspoken dream, let it drift into the night Let gravity loosen its tight grip, reveal what burns so bright The secret blooms in moonlit air, a fragile, fearless vow Under star-dust skies I came alive, I tell you now [Outro] So let the night hold me close as I step into the dawn’s soft glow A whispered dream becomes a name I’ll wear and never outgrow
