The empty skies
Were full of grey
I waded through
The barren seaEach step I take
Illuminates
As darkness washes awayI'll color the world for you
The skies and the oceans too
A canvas of azure hue
Using every shade of blueLet's illuminate the night
With vibrant shining light
So please don't let it be black and white

[verse]
When I met your eyes
It was like love at first sight
Your gaze contained
Sugar, spice, and everything niceMy heart fluttering
As I wish for the sweet taste
A Stellar:Dream
That was brought together by fate[chorus]
So sweet
Every little thing you do
I think
I'm falling in love with youSo please
I know that this feeling's true
Tell me
'Cause I know that you feel it too

[verse]
The garden breathes
Life into the air
The flowers bloom
Watered by my tearsThe silence speaks
With comforting words
My worries fading away as I hear:[verse 2]
“It’s okay, it’s alright”
I’ll move on with my life
The petals surround me
Guiding my wayI’m flying, I’m soaring
Along the flower path
A new start, beginning my future today(I’ll be okay)[pre-chorus]
Dear moon (Dear moon)
Dear stars (Dear stars)
Hold me (Hold me)
In your arms[chorus]
Under the galaxies I’ll wish to the stars
And let a miracle wash away my fears
Even if everything seems daunting at first
I know (I know)
I can take a deep breathAnother melody I sing from my heart
With words and messages written in the sky
I’ll do my best, you’ll see, just watch from afar
‘Cause I know (I know)
It’s not as hard as it seems

A princess trapped inside a castle
Waiting for the one to come rescue me
These building blocks connect me and you
To build a bridge that goes straight to your heartOpen this door to a magical world
To a place where surprises awaitHey! Hey! Jump to the sky!
Hey! Hey! Shoot for the stars!
Will you play along with me?
Won't you join me in my fantasy?Hey! Hey! Let's play pretend!
Hey! Hey! Until the end!
In my future diary
Together we can write our imaginary love storyStuck in a maze that I can't escape
Won't you become my light in the dark?
I'm a puzzle with one missing piece
The only one that can solve it is youSomehow we've become two main characters
Of a brand new, untold fairy taleHey! Hey! Let's run away!
Hey! Hey! Just for today!
You're the reason I can sing
Only you can be my everythingWith! You! I'm not alone!
Will! You! Be my hero!
Will you save the world with me?
So that we can write our imaginary love storyHey! Hey! Let's make it true
A future with me and you
Can we turn the page again?
Please don't let our story endHey! Hey! By any means
I'll keep chasing this dream
Until then I'll hope and pray (Then I'll hope and pray)
That it will be true someday
Let it be
RealityHey! Hey! Jump to the sky!
Hey! Hey! Shoot for the stars!
Will you play along with me?
Won't you join me in my fantasy?Hey! Hey! Let's play pretend!
Hey! Hey! 'Til the very end!
In my future diary
Reality will be my imaginary love story

I call your name
Can you hear my little voice?
I’m all alone
Can I imagine that you’re close?I can’t describe
What this feeling is inside
So far away
But I want you by my sideWhen the days feel long
and I close my eyes
I can dream you’re by my sideFly high over the moon
So we can see a brand new world
Step, step, walking with you
Let’s be together foreverShine, shine, under the stars
Illuminate the darkest night
Though I can only stay
Imagining you’re by my sideI don’t have to pretend;
You’ll always be here by my side

Remember when we couldn't find our home?
Remember when we used to be lost and alone?
We can look up to the skies above
Just knowing that you're here's enough
I'll never ever leave you on your ownI'll stay by your side
Even if we stand under different skies
Together we'll spread our wings and fly
Until we can touch the moon and the starsWe're on each other's team
We'll stand up and fight 'till the very end
We'll never give up
We'll never back down
No matter what comes
We'll be together

Among all the stars that shine in the sky
There's one special star that always stands out every night
Won't you be my star (won't you be my star)
I've always been hoping that you'll guide me with your lightAnd anytime I lose my way (lose my way)
You'll be there
(I'll be) Always there with you
Until those countless lights go out, and stillForever and beyond with you (still with you)
I'll be there
Let my eternal vow be heard across the universe
And reach you, my very first starAnd even when I close my eyes (close my eyes)
You're still there
(Feels just) Like a gentle dream
I want to fall into your warmth tonightEach second that I spend with you
(This moment) Lights my life
If only I could stop the hands of time
And stay here forevermore

Will no one see the person I know I am?
Will no one hear the voice that cries out from my heart?
The "me" within your eyes
The "me" I see inside
Can anyone perceive and love my truth?Won't you believe in a future where you can be you?
Won't you believe in a world that knows your reality?
I know all of it feels like a far-off dream but
Won't you believe as I believe in you?Can I believe in a future where I can be me?
Can I believe in a world that knows my reality?
Even now it still feels like a far-off dream but
When you are here it seems like it could be trueWill no one see the person I know I am?
Will no one hear the voice that cries out from my heart?
The "me" within your eyes
The "me" I see inside
Can you be the one to share my truth?Won't you believe in a future where you can be you?
Won't you believe in a world that knows your reality?
Although all of it feels like a far-off dream but
I promise to you my dear, it will all come trueCan we believe in a future where you can be you?
Can we believe in a world that knows my reality?
Even now it still feels like a far-off dream but
Somehow together we will make it true
