lyrics:

JACK:

i look up at the moon in the quiet of night

as the snow begins to fall, i’ve just arrived

in the town where it began, in the town where the ice

of the pond cracked and i emerged

it’s the town where i learned i don’t really exist

to these kids who grow up, who have their own kids

always stuck on the sidelines, always watched by the bright eyes

of a moon who never talks back

but i’ve given up on being sad

because someday things will change

i can see the people turning, looking up to watch me

smiling waving as i fly far overhead

and i can hear the children laughing, and running trying to catch me

tossing snowballs, making forts, trekking up hills holding sleds

and maybe for now it’s just a dream

but someday they’re gonna believe in me

RAPUNZEL:

i look around at the walls, my eyes search for a place

but after a lifetime of painting i’ve run out of space

i’ve painted wishes and dreams, what i’ve read, what i’ve seen

and as i’ve grown it’s grown harder and harder to believe

that mother will ever let me leave, that i’ll see any of these things

and i’ve noticed that she’s not so nice after i sing

trapped in this same routine, so far away from the lights

that arrive on my birthday and glow all through the night

but i’ve given up on being sad

because someday things will change

i can see myself leaving, running free through the forest

grass beneath my feet and trees high overhead

and i can see myself dancing and meeting new people

seeing the lights and making a bunch of new friends

and maybe for now it’s just a dream

but someday i’m gonna be free

HICCUP:

i look down at my feet, i can’t bear to meet the eyes

of my father glaring at me and standing in the light

of our village up in flames and the fault is partly mine

for distracting him as i tried and failed miserably to fight

i was blinded by my hope that if i could be more like him

i’d win his pride and stop being the village disappointment

but i’m too weak and i’m too small, not a viking at all

stuck in a place where i obviously don’t belong

but i’ve given up on being sad

because someday things will change

i can see my father beaming, hear the village cheering

celebrating my latest victory in the ring

and everybody’s gonna listen to me and my ideas since

i am the future chief, after all

maybe for now it’s just a dream

but someday they’re gonna be proud of me

MERIDA:

i look across the table at my mother as she talks on

about what i’m doing wrong, how she wants me to change

my opinion doesn’t matter, i should want what she wants for me

but i don’t want to be married, especially if it’s arranged

it’s my duty as a princess but i never asked for this

and i know my fate lies elsewhere, somewhere in the woods

and i wish that she’d just hear me out, stop acting like i let her down

but nothing that i do seems good enough for her

but i’ve given up on being sad

because someday things will change

i can see my mother nodding, saying she’ll turn away the suitors

telling me she’ll let me grow up in my own time

i can see myself riding, firing arrows hitting targets

knowing that when i get home she’ll greet me with a smile

maybe for now it’s just a dream

but someday she’s gonna listen to me

maybe for now it’s just a dream

but someday things will change.
