Create a cinematic inspirational piano ballad at 70 BPM in a minor key that transitions to major in the final chorus. The mood should be intimate, hopeful, and dignified, not dramatic or theatrical. Use real grand piano as the foundation with subtle ambient pads and light string ensemble that gradually builds. Add a soft kick drum heartbeat in the second verse. Female lead vocal with warm, textured, authentic tone. No gospel runs. Harmony layers enter in second chorus and build in final chorus. Keep production restrained and emotional, suitable for a large fundraiser luncheon setting. End with piano and soft vocal only. maximum 3 minutes

Lyrics

I sleep with my back to a cold brick wall Streetlight humming overhead I close my eyes and I am eight years old With a whole world in my head I wanted to help the hurting ones Be someone strong and kind I dreamed of a house with a yellow door And peace I thought I would find Pre Chorus Somewhere along the way I believed those dreams were not for me Chorus But our dreams were never dead They were buried deep Under fear and broken years And promises we could not keep We thought we lost them forever Thought we crossed the line But our dreams were never gone They were always mine Always yours Verse 2 She traded hope for a quiet mind For something to numb the pain Every day was just surviving Not dreaming again She told herself she ruined it all That grace was not for someone like her But even in the darkest nights Something inside still stirred Pre Chorus She is still here She is still breathing Chorus Our dreams were never dead Just buried under shame They still remembered who we were They still knew our name Now we are clean and we are sober Learning how to be The little girls we used to be Are still inside of us Bridge We are mothers We are daughters We are healing in the light We are learning how to trust again One brave step at a time She is holding her child again She is waking up clear headed She is choosing to stay Final Chorus These dreams are breathing again We can finally see The women we are becoming Are who we were always meant to be They were never dead Just waiting patiently Still ours Still mine Outro We still have hope We still have time
