Lyrics for new album “Live Today”

A Friend

Thank you for picking up the phone
I was feeling so alone
but you knew just what to say
what to say
a listening ear a helping hand
just someone who understands
can take the dark clouds away
and I can’t thank you enough
for lifting me up when I get stuck

Back On The Ground

I’m not sure how I got here
now everything’s so unclear
just want this dark night to pass
so many life choices and just as many voices
why doesn’t the sunlight last
and every step feels like a run
I want to finish but I’ve just begun
and i can see the light
but it’s so far away
I won’t stop now til’ I find my way

cuz the destination it just keeps on changing
like an escalator going up going down
I thought that I made it
but I have to recreate it
gotta get my feet back on the ground
on the ground

I’m asking every question
getting lots of suggestions
that make my head spin even more
it’s so hard to find the middle
and I tend to belittle myself
when I see I’ll never be like everyone else

life is a push and pull
constantly back and forth
dust yourself off and get right back up
when you feel like you’re getting
stuck in the tide
G-d will help you when you’ve had enough.

Holding On Forever

No one said that butterflies were born with wings
no one said that simple people wake up as kings
it’s not about the details of your situation
everyone’s got problems it’s just how you face them

Chorus

I may not know all of the answers
I may not read all of the signs
but in my heart I feel the power
cuz’ Your words are divine
what would my life be like without You
Oh just the thought it scares me so
Hashem I’m holding on forever
I’m never letting go

I used to want to take a stroll down easy street
but now i know you gotta work to earn your keep
life’s about the ups and downs
the highs the lows the spinning round
looking deeper getting lost and found
getting lost and found

people can say whatever they like
but You’re my king and You run my life
I believe in You and everything You do
whether it’s light or dark as night.

The Palace

The city is no place for princesses
wandering to find their way
I really want to know what to make of this
so many are going astray
know that you’re not alone
G-d’s waiting for you at His throne

I’m ready to enter the palace
won’t You judge me favorably
help me live peacefully
I’m ready to enter the palace
and all I want to be
is what You ask of me

as I walk down the streets I see
so many people just trying to make ends meet
life isn’t simple
so many princesses and queens
noblemen and kings
all living in false realities

Your will is my will
do it yes i will
cuz’ no distance is too far
and Your love is so pure
even though I’m unsure
but no decree is too harsh.

The Middle

It’s about time that I got to know myself
I’m really tired of feeling like I’m someone else
in this world of colors we all get lost sometimes
as you paint your picture there’s so much that you will find

Chorus

and you’ll learn a little laugh a little
sometimes you’re stuck in the middle
that’s life
the rain is pouring from the sky
and you can’t help but wonder why
why can’t I fly

as I look around I see so much that I don’t know
I wish it didn’t have to be so hard to grow
don’t hide away come one let your colors show
I wish you could see
that you’re so beautiful

your wings aren’t strong enough yet
but don’t be down don’t forget
every day you can start anew
so forgive yourself don’t regret
you’ll be great you’ll pass the test
believe in yourself
just believe in yourself.

Live Today

I’ve been searching for meaning in my life
and I’m always questioning
will I ever get it right
I’m trying so hard to find the path
that I know I must take
but I really don’t want to make anymore mistakes

Chorus

I’m not gonna cry not gonna wonder why
nothing makes sense right now
and I’m done with worrying about what’s happening
G-d will help me through somehow
and there’ll be no more tears
I’m facing all my fears
cuz’ today is today live in the moment live today

G-d I know You have a plan for me
wish I knew what it was
lately I’ve been running around in circles just because
Don’t want to sink I want to swim
but I don’t know where to begin
will You carry me if i jump into the water father

and tomorrow’s a new story but today is what I have
don’t want to waste another second
I’ve done way too much of that.

Gam Ki Eileich

Mizmor lidavid Hashem royi lo echsar
benos deshe yarbitzeini
el me menuchos yenahaleini
nafshi yeshovev yancheni bemaglei
tzedek liman shimo

Chorus
gam ki eileich bgei tzalmaves
lo irah rah ki Atah imadi
shiftichu umishantecha
hema yenachamuni
taroch lifunai shulchun neged tzorirai
dishanta bashemen roshi kosi revaya
ach tov vichesed yurdifunie
kol yimei chayay vishavti
bibeis Hashem liorech yamim

A Sister’s Love

You may just know me better than I know myself
and you never waste a second
when I tell you I need help
we can talk for hours we can laugh all day
we have a special power
and I hope it never goes away

I’ll be your shelter in the night
when things go wrong I’ll make them right
you’re my sister you’re my friend
and I’ll be there til’ the end
when you need my I’ll be there
because no one can compare
you’re my sister you’re my friend
forever and always til’ the end

you’ve seen every part of me
there’s nothing like family
I hope that I can give you back
the love you share with me
we’ve seen highs and we’ve seen lows
but that only made our love grow
you bring me so much happiness
you give your all and nothing less

so I’ll take some tea for two
anything if I’m with you
grab your shoes let’s take a walk
I still love you even if you steal my socks
you’re so beautiful you are you so perfectly
I just hope that you can see
just how much you mean to me.

Invisible

It’s the first day in a town so far away
don’t worry things will be great
well that joy came a little late
in school nobody said hello
she felt so hurt and nobody knows

Chorus

am I invisible
does anyone care Is anyone there
I wish that I could disappear
to anywhere but here
anywhere but here

the snow is gone the flowers smell so strong
as the bus pulls away
the child asks can I play
the girls say no not today
will I ever be accepted
why do I always feel rejected

Just let go of the hurt
realize how much you’re worth
everyone feels alone sometimes
but I’ll be your friend
and you’ll be mine

you’re not invisible
somebody cares somebody’s there
so please don’t ever disappear
stay right here
stay right here
forever and ever
just don’t give up on yourself
and never no never
wish that you were somebody else
you’re perfect just like you.

You Get Me Through

Been sitting here
for way too long
trying to figure out
just what went wrong
and the future is so unclear
I try to run but don’t get anywhere

Chorus

but You always get me through
I must admit I havn’t got a clue
I don;t get this world
and I don’t get myself
so I’m begging You for help
G-d I’m begging you for help

keep thinking the same thoughts
over and over again
is this the life I’m meant to live
I really wish this pain would end
and I keep trying but don’t get past step one
and I’m always crying for some reason

running in circles doesn’t get me very far
I’m starting to get dizzy
and can’t control this car
you think I’d know by now
where to take my life
but the shoe never fits
and nothing feels right.

Coming Back To Me

It seems to me that I had the wrong
picture in my mind
picture in my mind
and it seems to be that it’s all here
everything I’m trying to find
everything I’m trying to find
and I know it’s never simple
every choice every detail
makes a difference
I think I know what I’ve been missing

Chorus

and I’m coming back to me
trying to find the truth
cuz’ living in a box
isn’t something that I want to do
now I can see the trees and all the flowers bloom
I’m paving my own way
while singing my favorite tune

open up the window take a deep breath
and just try to let go
just try to let go
all of these distractions always bring me down
and I can’t seem to get away
can’t get up off the ground

I should have listened to the voice in my heart
saying be proud of who you are
don’t you know you’ve come so far
why do we struggle to feel like we’re worth it
well I can see you and I think you’re perfect.

It’s Not Over

It’s not over until I finish this race
It’s not over until I learn to embrace
it seems that I keep making
all of the same mistakes
what will it take for me
to finally find my way

Chorus

it’s not over until I finish this race

It’s not over until I learn to embrace

who I am and who I’ll be

it’s not over yet for me

It’s just too comfortable that it’s sad
cuz’ I feel like I’m here to stay
cuz’ I’ve been sitting here
in this room for the past
three hundred and sixty five days

oh never gonna stop now
oh gonna reach the top now
even if I fall down a thousand times
oh yeah I’ve been waiting
oh I feel I’m fading
but I’m never gonna give up
I’ll be alright I know
I’ll be just fine I hope.

What a cold and snowy weekend!

Can you believe this snow in october?! I was shocked to see the beautiful white snowflakes sticking to the ground this early in the season. If you’re like me you stayed inside all shabbas and dreamed of spring. (Only six months away 😉 ). Either way here’s a new song to warm you up a little. It’s about how yes the weather can be very cold and unpredictable, and life can be very  scary and confusing. If we remember that Hashem is guiding us through the cold nights, the sun can shine all year long. 🙂 I feel like I always end up in the same situations which equals me asking G-d for very similar things all the time, usually in song form. Here’s my new song called….

“Out In The Rain”

Verse

I’m sorry if i ask You

for the same things every day

I know nothing goes past You

so please send some good my way

I can’t see in this darkness

how will i pass these tests

You know i try my hardest

so please help me with the rest

cuz You put me here now

so I’ll get through somehow

chorus

It may be cold out in the rain

But i know that we’re together

G-d i wonder why this pain

hope it won’t last forever

i know You have a plan

just wish i could understand

i feel so lost in this world, so lost in this world

verse

my mind is filled with questions

should i go left or right

i really need some answers

so i can sleep at night

with so many directions

how can one be sure

that they’re going the right way

and won’t get lost anymore

Cuz You put me here now

so I’ll get through somehow

It may be cold out in the rain

but i know that we’re together

G-d i wonder why this pain

i hope it won’t last forever

i know You have a plan

just wish i could understand

i feel so lost in this world, so lost in this world.

You’re the only One who knows

Can You show me where to go

This life doesn’t make sense to me

I wanna feel the fresh air but

It’s too hard to breathe

Everyone wants something

We’d give it all up for that one thing

But we should still enjoy the ride

The doctor said three hours

What would you do

Would you sit around going through all of your regrets

Do you think about life make the most do it right

Cuz’ when we were about to fall you were right there saving

Heart And Soul Album 
 

      1.Thunder

Seeing G-d playing such

      a strong role in my life through good and hard times. 

      When nothing goes right

      And I’m in need of some insight

      At the end of the day

      I think about what they all say

      That the only reliable source is You

      Tell me is it true 

      Chorus

      I feel the thunder

      Pulling me under

      The rain is coming down

      I see the signs

      And I realize

      That you heard me cries

      That you heard my cries 

      This can’t just be coincidence

      With the repetition of these incidents

      A voice was yelling look at me look at me

      I didn’t want to look before but now I want to see 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      I know that You’re blessing me

      Even when You’re testing  me

      And I know that Your way

      Is the only way 

      Chorus 

2.L.O.V.E. 

 Work on yourself, find the reason for your existence, and search for the truth.

      What am I doing here

      What is my life about

      What if I asked away

      And never found out

      These questions scare me

      Why can’t I see clearly 

      Chorus

      It’s about love

      And finding the connection

      With the one up above

      It’s about love

      It’s about love 

      Realize your actions

      Don’t run on automatic

      Ask for forgiveness

      Until you have it

      Just keep your head up high

      I know life’s hard but you’ll get by 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      Life can be beautiful

      Though living can get so painful

      You gotta take the good from the bad

      And remember all the joy that you had 

      Chorus 
 

  3. Fate

 Realizing that some things are out of our control, let go and let G-d take over.

      I was ready to give up

      My emotions all bottled up

      Suddenly it became clear

      The light at the end was coming near 

      Chorus

      Fate is not in my possession

      After all I’ve learnt after all I’ve seen

      I have one confession

      I used to think my

      Life was according to my plan

Life was according to my plan

      But now I see that

      It’s really in the palm of G-D’s hand 

      Stop thinking so hard

      Give your aching head a break

      Be careful with what you feed your soul

      G-D’s watching you and He’s in control 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      I didn’t know

      The direction of my path

      Now I found some clarity at last

      And I know that fate… 

      Chorus 
 

4.Don’t Do This

Reach your amazing potential, don’t do things that will hurt you, regardless of how painful your situation in life may be. 

      You have a smile

      That makes your face light up and your eyes glow

      You could be so amazing

      You have such great potential

      But you keep bringing yourself down

      I used to like having you around 

      Chorus

      Don’t you want to live a long life

      It’s not time to say goodbye

      Seeing you hurt yourself

      Makes it hard for me not to cry

      Your life could have meaning

      If you worked a little bit

      Hear my voice…don’t do this 

      I know your life’s not perfect

      But hurting yourself is not worth it

      I can say this a million times or more

      But if you don’t listen what am I wasting my breath for

      You keep bringing yourself down

      I used to like having you around 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      Don’t you want your children to continue your name

      If you do stop playing such a dangerous game

      G-D is not the one you should blame

      G-D is not the one you should blame 

      Chorus 

5.Something About You (Shema Kolainu) 

 The power of prayer, desiring closeness to the one up above.

      As the sun comes up

      The first thing I do

      Is open up my heart and soul to You

      You’re so far at the same time so near

      I wonder are You really here 
     Chorus

     There’s something about You

      I can’t describe

      Can I be close to You

      I would have nothing to hide

      Though I don’t understand

      The reasons behind Your plan

      I’m putting my life in Your hands 

      Please accept my words

      Everything I say

      I beg of You don’t turn me away

      You’re the only One

            Who knows my hopes and my fears

            So please accept my prayers

            Chorus

            Chorus  

 6.You’re Not Alone

We all go through hard times, you are never alone, a brighter day is right around the corner.

      Sometimes you find yourself in a place

      All you want to do is escape

      You have confusion written all over your face

      Where is happiness don’t you want a taste

      Where is happiness don’t you want a taste  

      Chorus 

      The doors just closed they’re locked nice and tight

      When you break through I know you’ll be alright

      Is it impossible to find a place like home

      I’ll come with you so you’re not alone

      Cuz’ no one likes being alone 

      When I’m faced with situations

      So many choices I need to make

      Every single decision

      Is a risk that I’ve got to take 

      Chorus

      The doors just closed they’re locked nice and tight

      When I break through I know I’ll be alright

      Is it impossible to find a place like home

      Come with me I don’t want to be alone

      Cuz’ no one likes being alone 
 

      Bridge

      It’s time to go it’s time to leave

      Behind all the pain, behind all the grief

      Tomorrow’s a new day

      Good things will come your way

      Believe what you believe

      Believe what you believe

      Chorus

      The doors just closed they’re locked nice and tight

      When we break through I know we’ll be alright

      Is it impossible to find a place like home

      We’ll go together so no one’s alone

      Cuz’ no one likes being alone 

   7.Blessed

 My mother is my love, my life, my inspiration

         this song is for every mother out there. 

      Mother dear you never complain

      Though I know that I must drive you insane

      Mother dear you’re like a spiral

      On a notebook that keeps me in line 

      Chorus

      And I am blessed to have you in my life

      Our togetherness gets me through those hard times

      You mean everything you mean the world to me

      And if you weren’t by my side I wouldn’t be anything 

      Mother dear you’ve taught me all I know

      So I am writing this song to show

      You made me who I am who I am today

      Your wise words have helped me along the way 

      Chorus 2x 

 8.Evil Inclination

 Winning the battle against the Evil Inclination / Yetzer Hara.

      It’s an emotional rollercoaster

      Stomach drops head pounding

      When you talk the way you talk

      I find it astounding

      That after all I did

      You couldn’t give 

      Chorus

      Anything in return

      Besides for some painful burns

      And I’m not about to let you walk all over me

      I am no one’s door mat when will you see 

      This trip has got to stop

      I don’t give out free rides

      You’ve taken all you could

      Well I realized

      Don’t hurt anyone else

      And may G-D send you help 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      Can’t you see that I’m gone

      I was never wrong

      I’m not coming back

      Can you handle that 

      Chorus 
 

 9.This Road (Baruch Shem Civod)

 Being drawn to G-D, and knowing that He will lead me on the right path. 

      Your voice is calling my name

      I’m drawn to You my life will never be the same

      Your presence uplifts my soul

      You’re the only One who can make me whole 

      Chorus 

      I’m ready to take this road

I don’t know where it will go

      Lead me somewhere

      And I’ll take it from there

      I’ll dig deep down inside

      I’ll let go of my pride

      Baruch Shem Civod Malchuso 

      This is the first time that I found something real

      I feel You near me though You’re concealed

      You’re my guide the one I trust

      I’m Yours and I can’t get enough 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      So I’ll keep on

      Walking straight

      Until I

      Find my way  

      Chorus 

10.When I Get A Raise

Choose to be happy NOW, life isn’t always easy but you can appreciate what you have and change your mindset. 

      I always see people who look miserable

      They have everything but act like they have nothing at all

      If they never see the gifts that G-D gives them

      Maybe someday He’ll take them away

      No one ever said that life was easy

      It’s pretty difficult actually 

      Chorus

    Maybe when I get a raise

      Or when I lose ten pounds

      This vicious cycle goes around and around

      Being happy is a choice

      I can’t keep waiting and waiting

      If I live that way life would just be frustrating (frustrating, frustrating)

       Verse

    It’s not easy to change your mindset

      Everyone procrastinates saying I’m not there yet

      Look inside your self find the solution

      Don’t base your happiness on condition

      No one ever said that life was easy

      It’s pretty difficult actually 

      Chorus 

      There’s always gonna be

      Someone who has more

      But if you look again

      There’s always something worth living for 

      Chorus 
 

11.Little Voice 

 Don’t listen to voice inside your head (or to the people around you) that tell you you’re not good enough, because you are incredible and don’t ever forget it! 

      You said I wouldn’t get far

      And I’d never discover what my strengths are

      After all of those years

      After all of those tears

      I can’t believe I listened to those words 

      Chorus

      You were wrong

      Yes I was wrong

      It was me putting myself down all along

      That little voice

      Inside my head

      Needs somewhere else to live instead

      I’m moving you out cuz’ I have been mislead 

      You said I was unlikable

      And the words that I spoke made no sense at all

      It’s time to say good bye

      Please don’t ask me why

      We both know the damage that’s been done 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      You said I couldn’t take it

      You said I’d only fake it

      And that I wouldn’t survive

      Through the hard times in my life

      You said I wouldn’t make it 

      Chorus 

  12. We’re Doin’ Alright

Times are rough but family, friends, and simple joys, help   us get through. 

      Hey mother why do you cry

      Wipe those tears falling from your eyes

      You work way too hard to be this upset

      So listen when I say don’t give up hope yet 

      Chorus

      Though the days get hard the going gets rough

      Can make anyone say they’ve had enough

      The stress builds up and the money’s tight

      But I’d say we’re doin’ alright 

      Money doesn’t mean everything

      It can’t show you the joy that life can being

      I’m a simple girl so if you’d ask me

      I’d say the best things in my life are free 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      We have family

      We have laughter

      We have good times

      What more could we ask for

     Two loving parents

      That do more then they should

      Well if you asked me

       I’d say were doing pretty good

      That’s what I’d say

      I’d say were doing pretty good 

      Chorus

 

13.It’sTime

No experience lasts forever, you have to keep on working and keep on growing. Every end is a new beginning. 

      It’s time I’m going

      Vulnerable not knowing

      Where I’ll be where I’ll go

      Hoping that I’ll continue to grow

      And reach as high as I can

      I hope that I meet these demands 

      Chorus

      This has been the best time of my life

      I need some help now

      Will I be alright

      I’ll need reassurance

      I’ll need endurance

      If I want to survive if I want to get by

      I will make it 

      Hello goodbye

      I didn’t know that time was gonna fly

      In the future challenges coming

      I’m gonna face them

      No more running

      I’ll reach as high as I can

      I hope that I meet these demands 

      Chorus 

      Bridge

      This is just the beginning

      Of the meaningful life I will be living

      This is the start of a new stage

      I’m turning over the page 

      Chorus
