SHE'S NOT ME
Music & Lyrics by Michael Mott
Sometimes late at night there's a lonely girl
Hiding from the shadows of the day
Weeping in her sheets for this lonely world
For she can't find her way
Sometimes late at night she is wide awake
Ready to transcend this world and soon
Rising from her bed, she knows who she is
And at once becomes the moon.
Now, she's rising, floating, flying.
For a moment she is free
As she's floating, flying, drifting away
I can see she's not me
Every single day I drift through my life,
Aching for the freedom of the sky.
Everything I am is in that lonely moon
And I long to show her why
For she's rising, floating, flying!
For a moment she is free.
As she's floating, flying, drifting away
I can see she's not me.
How I long to follow her
And long to ride the wind,
I know I can not hold her down.
She is free, yet frozen there
And I cannot compare.
For she is floating
As I drown.
Sometimes late at night there's a lonely girl
Aching for the freedom of the sky...
Official Lyrics:
Sometimes late at night there's a lonely girl
Hiding from the shadows of the day
Weeping in her sheets for this lonely world
For she can't find her way
Sometimes late at night she is wide awake
Ready to transcend this world and soon
Rising from her bed, she knows who she is
And at once becomes the moon.
Now, she's rising, floating, flying.
For a moment she is free
As she's floating, flying, drifting away
I can see she's not me
Every single day I drift through my life,
Aching for the freedom of the sky.
Everything I am is in that lonely moon
And I long to show her why
For she's rising, floating, flying!
For a moment she is free.
As she's floating, flying, drifting away
I can see she's not me.
How I long to follow her
And long to ride the wind,
I know I can not hold her down.
She is free, yet frozen there
And I cannot compare.
For she is floating
As I drown.
Sometimes late at night there's a lonely girl
Aching for the freedom of the sky...
Michael Mott THANK YOU FOR THE OFFICIAL LYRICS!!!!
Such an amazing and beautiful song. Is this version or a studio version available to purchase anywhere?
This is just amazing! I have been listening to this for the past hour :'D
@@Matt_Hatt3r Not yet! But working on making this happen :-)
@@MichaelMottComposer I WOKE UP AT 5AM AND CAME ACROSS THIS SONG,OH MY GOD! YOU ARE AMAZING. FELT LIKE SOMEONE KNEW ME.
I'm really excited that work is still being done on this musical. This song was absolutely beautiful. I know I speak for the rising fanbase when I say we look forward to hearing more.
Thank you! We never stopped - just went through some creative team changes, which resulted in a whole new book and title change. It's a MUCH stronger, more emotional show and I can not wait for the world to hear the entire score!! :-)
Sierra is perfect for this show! You (Michael) and her are such a gift to this world❤️❤️
Wow, thank you so much! It is such an honor to hear these superstars bring these songs to life so effortlessly!!
Michael's recent IG live with Sierra brought me here again. I adore Sierra and her singing. And I've loved this musical for almost 3 years now. I really hope it gets on stage some day. Hopefully with Sierra and Jeremy.
She is so phenomenal It's like this song is made for her
This song is absolutely beautiful. Michael you are incredibly talented . I love the lyrics and Sierra is amazing. You two make magic together.
Do you know the lyrics is? I can't quit get it. Thanks
I cannot believe I’ve just found this, In the Light needs to happen, please tell me there’s progress. Everything about this musical is beautiful
They are still working on it, and trying to raise money to make a studio recording of all the songs with Jeremy Jordan! They have an Indiegogo campaign that people can donate to through Jan 30!
So beautiful! Thrilled that I had the chance to see and hear it in person.
I haven't heard Melody and Haunting in a song like this since the Secret Garden. Many have tried. This does it. Even without Sierra who is her usually mesmerizing self, this is an incredible piece of music on it's own.
Wow, thank you SO very much! "Secret Garden" is one of my absolute favorite scores in musical theatre. Much love! MM
Oh I have tears in my eyes..
I know I've commented on this already, but this is one of my absolute favorite Sierra Boggess performances. That says a lot about the song I think. I always come back to this when I am listening to her. Kinda like I always end up w Life on Mars when I am listening to Bowie. Apples and Oranges, but I hope you get the picture.
I keep repeating this over and over and over again and again and again. This is so beautiful!! Sierra is the new Barbara Streisand for me. Please put 'She is Not Me' in your repertoire, if you still present at 54 Below.
Sierra , you are just amazing !you really are x
Speechless and trying to find a way to properly express how amazing this song is and how amazing Sierra is performing it. It's like every song she sings is made JUST for her! She is indescribably talented. Wow. 🤯
This is absolutely gorgeous! I am sorry that I am only discovering it now, because it looks like I missed the campaign for the concept album.
This is one of the best songs I have heard in a very long time. And Sierra. A total queen. Has hit it on the head! Bravo!
Thank you so very much! I appreciate this!
I'm so in love with this song!
So great! Please upload more of the songs. So glad I had the chance to see it in person.
I NEEED a music accompaniment for this beautiful song
I can make you a track! Email me at MichaelMottPR@gmail.com
This is really so stunning, Michael.
I just found this and I can't stop listening to it! I love Sierra and this music is so beautiful!
I love this song! Just hearing it for the first time and it suits Sierras voice perfectly!
I absolutely love this song! Great job Sierra!
I loved itt!!!!💘💘
I keep coming back to these recordings of in the light, it is by far my favourite musical score, I cannot wait to hopefully see at least a album of the whole musical available for purchase
this Song is so good. I miss the Prolog Video :( I'm sad you took it down. Now I fear I might never listen to it ever again, cause I can't find any news to this musical, so I think it probably got cancelled :'(
Sometimes late at night there's a lonely girl
Hiding from the shadows of the day
Weeping in her sheets for this lonely world
For she can't find her way
Sometimes late at night she is wide awake
Ready to transcend this world and soon
Rising from her bed, she knows who she is
And at once becomes the moon
No, she's rising, floating, flying
For a moment she is free
And she's floating, flying, drifting away
I can see she's not me
Every single day I drift from my life
Aching for the freedom of the sky
Everything I am is in that lonely moon
And I long to show her why
Oh she's rising, floating, flying
For a moment she is free
And she's floating, flying, drifting away
I can see she's not me
How I long to have saw her there
And come to have brightened when
And now I cannot hold her down
She is free and frozen there
And I cannot compare
For she is floating
As I drown
Sometimes late at night there's a lonely girl
Aching for the freedom of the sky
This is from Google when I put the audio in. If anyone has the real lyrics, correct me.
💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
❤❤😊
Does anyone know the context of this song! It’s stunning and I need to know whyyyy!!!
anyone else getting she used to be mine vibes lol (also BEAUTIFUL SONG AND BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCE❤❤❤)
Broadway Enthusiast i wrote this almost two years ago. Thanks for your comment. 👍🏻
Can I download this song in Spotify? Been searching for it but I can't find it. hhuhuhuhuhi
Euraiamae Mitsui I haven’t released it. It’s been rewritten as the show has been undergoing changes. We will release a professional recording once the show is up and running. Hopefully soon!!
@@MichaelMottComposer Oh okay, hopefully you will still pick Sierra to do the recording. HAHA! SO LOVE THE SONG 😍 - will patiently wait for it.
One more thing, thank you for creating such beautiful song. 😊
Hi! I'm a huge fan of this song, and the songs that are available. I am doing a research project - what character sings this song?
her name is gretchen
Does anyone have the lyrics to this beautiful song?
Sheet music is available on my website: MichaelMott.net
Just posted them above!! Thanks for your patience!
Does anyone know what happened to the prologue song with this cast or where I can listen to it ?
I deleted it because that no longer exists in our show and I didn't want people watching an old draft of something.
@@MichaelMottComposer Ah that makes sense. Loved listening to it though
Is there the any way of getting a backing track or instrumental for this song? I can’t find one anywhere and would love this in my rep. 😕
Backing tracks are not possible. Sheet music will be available when the album is released, hopefully sometime in 2021.
someone for the life of me tell me the context. all these songs are pretty but i don't know the story. What is this character going through???
Cierra The story copied from his website “IN THE LIGHT follows Dr. Johann Faustus who is accused by and on the run from the Holy Inquisition. With the help of a mysterious Traveler, Faustus and his wife, Ana find sanctuary in the court of the newly crowned Baron and his betrothed, Gretchen, who promise to protect him, until Dr. Faustus makes a decision that threatens to destroy all he loves. This sweeping contemporary musical score by Michael Mott reflects the tension and passion of the epic legend of Faust.” . Jeremy is Johann, Teal is Ana, Sierra is Gretchen, Ryan is the Traveler, and Jason is the Baron.
will sheet music be available soon for this show?
It’s available on my website - MichaelMott.net under the “sheet music” tab.
@@MichaelMottComposer oh great, thank you!
Is there any where I can buy the backing track for this song thanks :)
Unfortunately there is nothing professionally recorded for this song yet, so there is no backing track.
I was just contacted by a young singer who introduced me to this song via this link. It's amazing. I am making a piano backing track for her. Happy to make it available to you once ready! You can contact me through my website: marilynwhipple.com/
