Lyrics[]
Elsa:
Mother, I am flipping through the past
Turning pages of a book to find you
Mother, I am lost
Mother, I am scared
Mother, I don't know what to do
What were you trying to say?
Must have written it down for a reason
Must have thought I'd find it someday
I feel this power surging through me
Every minute like a horse that's gone wild
Mother, you were here
Mother, you are gone
And you left behind a scared child
Can't sit around and cry
There's too much to lose
And I think that I've been given this power for a reason
And I need to know why
I seek the truth
What are you telling me?
I'm ready to hear
Can't go forward this way
With questions growing day by day
I seek the truth
What are you showing me?
I'm ready to see
I need to know who you were
To know who I am meant to be
Mother, you were everyone's queen
I watched you closely and you taught me well
How do I be you?
How do I be good?
How do I be me?
And Arendelle?
How do I govern this land
With a power inside that I can't command?
It's growing and speaking a language
That I don't understand
And I seek the truth
What are you teaching me?
I'm ready to learn
Can't retreat once again
And so I turn to you back then
I seek the truth
You left me messages
And they hold the key
I need to know what they mean
To know who you want me to be
Anna:
Another secret and another and another
At least you were consistent
Hello father, hello mother
But I won't let that pull us back
To what we were before
I won't let her close that door
No more doors anymore
Elsa: (Anna:)
Where the north wind meets the sea
(No more secrets)
There's a river full of memory
(Stay together, you're my family)
Come my darling, homeward bound
(I just found you)
Homeward bound
(You'll stay found)
Elsa:
I seek the truth
You drew a map for me
You left me a clue
You didn't leave me alone
You're with me guiding what I do
Elsa: (Anna:)
I seek the truth (Elsa...)
They say that it can hurt but even so (Elsa...)
I need to know who you were
So I can know who I am
And I won't let it...
Anna: (Elsa:)
I won't let you go...
(Go...)
I won't let you go...
(Go...)
