A Song for Leah from Stardew Valley

lyrics

So many midnights spent on rooftops
I felt electrified
Hoping for a spark, always waiting
Always petrified

Full of inspiration
In this constant stream of consciousness
Living in this glamorous metropolis
But surrounded by this greatness
All I did was suffocate
Until finally

My feelings for you
Are carved in wood
I found you, I never dreamed I would
You gave me a new home when I needed to belong
And now that I've stopped
I realize I've been running all along

Superficial networking
'Cause my only quest was fame
Those years were so ridiculous
But I only have myself to blame

'Cause the constant fear of wasting
My potential and my youth
Turned into obsessing over all that I could lose
But one day I stopped waiting
For the world to realize
The genius of my art
And took my own advice

My feelings for you
Are carved in wood
I found you, I never dreamed I would
You gave me a new home when I needed to belong
And now that I've stopped
I realize I've been running all along

You saved me
Restored my dignity
Made me the artist that I'm supposed to be
I never thought that I could feel ever so at home
I'm finally me
In Pelican Town
Right where I belong
Right where I belong
