about

'Your Song' was inspired by the passing of my grandmother, who was like my second mother.
The song is not about death but rather about life and the appreciation of life.

It is dedicated to my late grandmother (my oumie) and to my family but also to everyone, hence the name YOUR SONG.

lyrics

Verse 1

Life is but a gift,
A dream that we live for a day,
and moments they move with waters in the streams,
But I will never go away,

Thoughts are like the mist,
Hearts and minds stay open for the twists,
As all their illusions fade away,
I will never go astray

Chorus

Forever,
The seasons change, the winter turns to spring,
Wherever,
Your life will take and trials will make you sing

Forever,
Our hearts and minds become entwined like diamonds in the sea,
Whenever,
Your love will call, sometimes you fail, but still you live the dream,

Verse 2

We march to the rising sun,
Where love, is the source of creation,
To render our minds unto the one,
So we, can walk within Her ways,

For we don't live today,
We move to the sound of the ocean,
So never cease to pray,
For she is flying in the wind,

Chorus
