Like a gentle caress to the soul, this dreamy composition tugs at the heartstrings with its poignant melodies and impassioned lyrics. The song has sadness and also conveys there is always light at the end of the tunnel.

The composition progressively ascends with each passing moment, bringing subtle yet fascinating layers of new elements.
The EP by Lyra Star concludes delicately with the soul-stirring classic “True Love Awaits.” A mystery pervades the music from the first notes, accompanied by haunting heartbeats and mystical wind elements. A profound sense of melancholy pours over the listener as Lyra softly implores, “Just don’t leave,” bringing a poignant longing.

Lyra’s talent shines brightly once more when the chorus arrives. Her choir experience is flawlessly portrayed on the EP. The variations on the line, “Don’t leave,” reverberate vulnerability, wonderfully supported by the bassline that reflects the raw emotion imparted.
