夢に見る ～Waiting On A Wish～ (From『白雪姫』/US版)

Little girl at a lonely well With the same little tale to tell Feeling trapped by the walls that hold her Feeling stuck in the story they've told her Another day where she fades away Never daring to disobey So she's dreaming all alone Sharing secrets with the stone My father told me long ago I braved a bitter storm of snow Is that a girl I'll ever know again? I'm waiting on a wish Beneath a thousand treetops And as the silver sky stops I send a whisper to the water Waiting on a wish Holding out for someday Hoping somehow, some way I'll become my father's daughter I close my eyes and see The girl I'm meant to be Is she a part of me I've yet to find? Wondering, “will she appear? Or will I be forever here Waiting on a wish?” Little girl by a wild wood How she tries to be someone good But in the shadow the kingdom's caught in Somehow, fairness is long forgotten So will she rise, or bow her head? Will she lead, or just be led? Is she the girl she always said she'd be? I'm waiting on a wish Beneath a thousand treetops And as the silver sky stops I long to leave the walls behind me Waiting on a wish Holding out for someday Hoping somehow, some way There comes a miracle to find me I close my eyes and see The girl I'm meant to be Is she a part of me I've had to hide? Wondering, “will she appear? Or will I spend another year Waiting on a wish?” They say all you have to do To make your wish come true Is let it echo, echo, echo, echo Your voice will carry through And bring that dream to you Just like an echo, echo, echo Well, I can hear the echo loud and clear But I'm still waiting…here Waiting on a wish… Beyond a whisper to the water Waiting on a wish Is it almost someday? Can I somehow, some way Learn to be my father's daughter? Someone who could fin'lly start Start speaking with a fearless heart Someone who just might be brave Someone no one needs to save Well, I can always dream, but then I wake up and it's me again Waiting on a wish Waiting on a wish Waiting on a wish
