Song Lyrics

They said I was found By the side of the road. There were tracks all around, It had recently snowed. In the darkness and cold With the wind in the trees, A girl with no name And no mem'ries but these: Rain against a window. Sheets upon a bed. Terrifying nurses Whisp'ring overhead. "Call the child Anya." "Give the child a hat." I don't know a thing Before that.... Traveling the back roads. Sleeping in the wood. Taking what I needed. Working when I could. Keeping up my courage, Foolish as it seems, At night, all alone, In my dreams... In my dreams Shadows call. There's a light At the end of a hall. Then my dreams Fade away But I know it all Will come back One day. I dream of a city Beyond all compare. Is it Paris? Paris! A beautiful river, A bridge by a square And I hear voice whisper I'll meet you right there In Paris Paris... You don't know what it's like Not to know who you are! To have lived in the shadows, And traveled this far. I've seen flashes of fire, Heard the echo of screams. But I still have this faith In the truth of my dreams... In my dreams It's all real And my heart has so much to reveal. And my dreams Seem to say... Don't be afraid to go on Don't give up hope, come what may. I know it all will come back One day!

Dancing bears, Painted wings, Things I almost remember. And a song someone sings Once upon a December. Someone holds me safe and warm. Horses prance through a silver storm. Figures dancing gracefully Across my memory... Someone holds me safe and warm. Horses prance through a silver storm. Figures dancing gracefully Across my memory... Far away, long ago, Glowing dim as an ember, Things my heart Used to know, Things it yearns to remember... And a song Someone sings Once upon a December.

Heart, don't fail me now. Courage, don't desert me. Don't turn back now that we're here. People always say Life is full of choices. No one ever mentions fear, Or how the world can seem so vast On a journey to the past. Somewhere down this road I know someone's waiting. Years of dreams just can't be wrong. Arms will open wide, I'll be safe and wanted, Fin'lly home where I belong. Well, starting now I'm learning fast On this journey to the past... Home, love, family. There was once a time I must have had them, too. Home, love, family. I will never be complete Until I find you... One step at a time, One hope, then another, Who knows where this road may go? Back to who I was, On to find my future, Things my heart still needs to know. Yes, let this be a sign. Let this road be mine. Let it lead me to my past And bring me home At last!
