A Simple Love Song (free) 04:05
I know for many years Every time I looked at you I wanted you to be different The way you look, the things you do Cause nothing you did was perfect And none of your features great And every time I told you You believed me and looked afraid This is, this is a simple love song The only difference is, it’s for myself I promise I promise I will accept me Not the way I should be But the way that I am Sorry you always had to prove That you were worthy at all Sorry for being your biggest bully And cut you down when you stood tall Now I realize your worthy Of love, joy and success Just the way you are, completely Even when you look a mess Chorus Forgive me, forgive me Allow me, invite me Please hold me, please show me Please love me, please guide me I’ll love you, accept you Adore you, invite you I’ll hold you, I’ll trust you Care for you, support you, you… Chorus x 2

Why am I here on this earth again Where there’s so much pain And so much suffering? Why does it take so long to shed all Of those layers of hatred and greed? I know I have a choice I have free will And I can act out of love or fear But sometimes I crumble And I ask the above Especially when things down here get tough Lord, come by, come by, come by, come by Send all your angels to look after me alright Lord, come by, come by, come by, come by Send all your angels to look after me alright How can I see What’s beyond my mind? Beyond what I think to be true and right? How does it feel to be free of all The illusions of doubt and of fear? Could I live a great life on this earth? Full of joy instead of worries Sometimes I don’t see how and I ask the above Especially when things down here get tough Chorus Let your light surround me Your love unfold me Keep me on the path of peace Let your light surround meYour love unfold me Keep me on the path of peace Peace Chorus

Radio 03:15
There are times When life is hard When nothing rhymes Things fall apart Days are grey And nights are long You’ve lost your way You’ve lost your song That’s when you need me You switch me on You turn me up And I will sing you a song and lift your soul I make you feel whole So you see It’s not all bad Cause you have me So don’t be sad Sing along With all your heart Make yourself strong To play your part So Chorus La la la la la la la la la la la, mmmmh La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Music can heal your soul Just sing out loud And you’ll feel whole I am your radio Just sing along And you’ll feel strong So Chorus Life may throw a curveball But with your music You’ll conquer all Sing your own song And it’ll bring Great joy along So Chorus x 2 Cause I am your radio Just sing along And your worries will be gone

Writing you these words I should have said long ago It hurts because despite the pain You have to let me go You gave me all you could And now I need to walk alone I know your holding on You’re still with me when I’m gone Because you’re in my heart Every day of my life And I love you from afar Every day of my life But I need to walk my path On my own in this world You have yours I have mine And sometimes they are apart We’ve been through many trials Relationships are never easy And yet love heals our wounds If we forgive and let things go At times I felt so hurt and I hurt you And to forgive can be The hardest thing to do If he hold on and don’t set free Still…Chorus Love and let go We learn to accept All the good and the bad In each other and never stop To listen up with an open heart and drop The judgment and the walls That keep compassion from coming in… …To abide in our hearts Every day of our lives Just to live and let it be Every day of our lives As we walk on our path All alone in this world Yet all one in our soul So let’s love and let go
5.
Peace 04:19
Peace shines through us all, precious soul Peace shines through us all, precious soul We are all whole, precious soul We are all whole, precious soul Are we here to learn and grow Heal ourselves and love the world? With its pain and its tears And to go beyond our fears? Light shines through us all, precious soul Light shines through us all, precious soul Guiding the way, connect and pray Guiding the way, connect and pray Chorus Can we fill this world with grace Seeing it through eyes of love? Can we fill this world with grace By sharing our hearts? Are we born again and again To learn and grow Share our pain and share our joy? To love and to bring Peace shines through us all, precious soul

The Key 03:06
Through many lives we got lost and back together Always promising it would last forever We made mistakes We walked away and cried Only to end up side by side Please give me the key to your heart And I promise not to break it apart I’ll shower it with love and care from my own Let’s get together, no one needs to be alone From life to life we learn many lessons Walk different paths and try to make sense We hurt each other and yet get back together Because our souls are one now and forever Chorus And when things do fall apart And we end up with a broken heart Life’s cycles will mend the pain And we may come back together again Chorus
7.
Rescue Me 03:25
Life can be the toughest school I’ve ever been to Really want to skip a class But I’ve to see it through And without my faith I would Long have given up Oh so many trials and lessons Lord please pick me up Oh my lord, rescue me, rescue me from here Oh my lord, rescue me, please rescue me from here All these things that happen here Can really bring me down At times it even feels as though I’m about to drown The only thing that helps me here Is to sit down and pray Feel that deep connection that No matter what will stay Chorus Oh my lord, precious lord, you’re always there for me Oh my lord, precious lord, you’re always there for me Ahh Chorus There were many years when I Never turned to you Now I know you are the source Now I know you’re true
8.
Stay 04:13
My soul is crying out for help All those years of covering the pain inside Pretending I’m a fine woman While inside loathing myself Now I am at the end of the line All pretence has failed to drown out Deeper issues that come from the past Oh love help me to solve them at last Cause I wanna be free For you and for me To love you all the way I want you to stay Please stay, stay, stay, stay Stay, stay, stay, stay Oooh Please hang on in there I am healing the pain inside I’m repared, my mind is strong And with courage I’ll carry on To get more out of life than I did Enjoy love, enjoy all of my gifts The lord has blessed me with you You can help me to work all this through Chorus So together we’ll walk this path Holding hands and not looking back With deep faith that God leads the way We’ll be fine we’ll get through this we’ll pray Chorus Please stay...
9.
Walk With Me 04:52
Please don’t hide your tears You can tell me your fears And together we will fill the pain inside With laughter, joy and light Here, hold my hand I can truly understand What you’re going through In your life at this time So I’ll give you some strength of mine Come, walk with me Enjoy the earth Let’s just be And one day the pain will be gone Though life has its strains Only love remains And that’s why I wrote you this song Things come and go There is Yes and there is No And the bad things turn into good things in the long run Like clouds hide the sun So kick, scream and cry And then say your goodbye To the memories that don’t serve you any longer Cause you’ve grown and you’re much stronger Chorus Keep looking ahead Find freedom instead Cause bad times do not last Our lives move way too fast So take a deep breathe in And let your new life begin Start exploring, laughing, dancing, singing, shining Every cloud has a silver lining. Chorus x 2 And that’s why Nothing ever really goes wrong

She held him long ago And now he’s gone, it hurt her so, hurt her so As everyone around her screamed And fell asleep, or so it seemed… so it seemed… His cheek had softly touched her face Words whispered in her ear of never ending love Beyond time and space His eyes were chocolate brown and deep He looked at her as he laid down Into a sea of red And forever fell asleep… forever fell asleep… forever fell, forever fell, forever… She tried, but she could not wake him up His face was pale, his hand went cold Tears streamed down and dropped into his lap She stood as her heart broke in two She gave him half and walked away Before she saw him turning blue… Since then her heart’s been aching bad She lost her love in games of men Countries fighting, power hungry, completely mad In time, she also lost her friends Her parents, brothers, sisters now asleep And I guess, that’s where this story ends… That’s where this story ends, that’s where this story, where this story, where this story ends…. Not quite, She did survive the war, But as a shadow of herself, life will never be the same as before She loves her brown-eyed sweetheart still And misses her whole family, her friends, and always will… And from her broken heart she gives All of her love to those in pain, just the same While she does not complain One day, she says so in her mind, She’ll meet her brown-eyed sweetheart once again In a world, that is warm, in a world, that is warm and kind.

Outcast 02:52
He’s got no possessions But he’s smiling at me Not sure what to think I pretend I don’t see His front teeth are missing But he holds his head high If I was in his shoes I’d surely want to die He’s an outcast of society His status so low Not someone you’d wanna be I feel so guilty And hand him my change Though his smile gets much wider Deep down I feel strange It does not make a difference How much change he will make As he needs much more To help him get his life straight Chorus x 2 But somehow I have a feeling That he has pity with me I am a slave just the same way But with a job, and a bed and a widescreen TV… We could be outcasts from the heavens above All searching for meaning All searching for love Outcasts from the heavens above All searching for meaning All searching for love Oooh He is me and I am he.

about

I love music. I love how it invokes and carries emotions, heals pain, transforms feelings
and thoughts, brings joy and inspiration, makes you fall in love with life or helps mend
a broken heart. How it dries your tears, lights the day, makes you dance and makes you dream.
How it holds memories forever, reminds us of the beauty of our journey, and is our best friend.

Music has always been my companion in life, especially in times of great pain and turmoil,
when no words or embrace could heal, music filled the emptiness
and slowly pulled me out of darkness.

I love making music because of its power to inspire and bring happiness. Music is always there for us.
Music is love. Music is life. May your hearts be filled with music.
