See a Little Light
Belinda Lyrics

Stay alone in my room, every moment passing too slow,
Belinda is expressing her loneliness as she spends long, seemingly endless hours by herself in her room.

Watch the candles
Belinda is observing the candles in her room, which act as one of the only sources of light and warmth in her otherwise dark and isolated existence.

Burn into the night
As the candles burn, Belinda reflects on her lonely situation, which persists even as the hours pass and night sets in.

Fall into a dream, wake up and everything's the same,
Belinda longs for an escape from her everyday existence, but her dreams only provide temporary relief as the same sense of loneliness and isolation greets her each morning when she awakens.

A second older, but alone, just
Despite the passage of time, Belinda feels no closer to finding companionship or connection with others, as though she's stuck in place and frozen in time.

Like a child
The feelings of loneliness and helplessness that Belinda experiences make her feel like a child, lost and searching for someone to guide her.

If you just give me a sign, to live and not to die
Belinda is hopeful that someone, anyone, will come into her life and offer her a way out of her loneliness, allowing her to live fully and joyfully.

Then I can see a little light,
Belinda believes that with even the smallest sign of hope or connection from someone, she'll be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel and find a way out of her loneliness.

I can find a piece of mine,
Belinda feels that with companionship or a connection to others, she could finally find peace and happiness in her life.

I don't know where you are, maybe
Despite her longing for connection, Belinda is still unsure where or how she'll find someone who can offer her the companionship she craves.

Near or maybe far, I just need a little light
Belinda knows that the person or people who can help her might be close by or far away, but either way she believes that just a little bit of hope or light can make all the difference.

Here a clock ticking on a 'riding hood have meaning'
Belinda is attuned to the small sounds and details in her world, as even the ticking of a clock or a mention of a fairytale character can have significance for her.

If I could find the love like in your eyes
Belinda longs for the kind of love and connection she sees reflected in the eyes of others, hoping that she'll someday find someone who offers her that same sense of warmth and connection.

See a million people, everyone's so lonely
Belinda is aware that she's not alone in her loneliness, as she sees countless other people experiencing the same sense of isolation and disconnect from others.

But we don't have to be alone tonight
Despite the pervasiveness of loneliness, Belinda holds out hope that she and others can still find solidarity and companionship in one another, even if just for one night.

You, you, lalala a you a
This line doesn't convey a significant meaning on its own. Rather, it seems to be a wordless vocalization that adds to the atmosphere of the song.
