"Room With a View" by Yiruma

Inspired by Yiruma’s “Room with a View,” Gabrielle added lyrics and arranged the piano piece for a capella. Her lyrics reflect the innocence of children and the beauty of the world as seen from an outsider looking in.

Lyrics:

At the edge of all existence

There’s a place I never knew

Take my hand I’ll lead you to

The room with a view

You can see the earth below us

As children rush by (laugh with) innocence

They yearn to grow but they don’t know

How quickly youthful days will go

See the world beyond the glass veneer

And look for beauty in the eyes

Of children nestled deep in sleep

At the edge of all existence

There’s a place I never knew

Just close your eyes and you’ll find

A room just for you

Will they ever find the room with a view?

Someday you’ll see the room with a view
