Story Behind The Song
Tanya lives in Croatia and I live in Nashville.
She found one of my postings and contactd me regarding needing someone to co-write with her that es a composer since she is a lyricist. Through email and snail mail (I sent her this melody) and she emailed these lyrics.
Geographically worlds apart, but musically...
soul mates.

Lyrics
A crowd In the street
I watch people who meet
We're all looking or something
Afraid to find nothing
Who knows what tomorrow brings
Who knows who really pulls the strings (Bri I)
If I leave the past behind
I'll be able to find
(CHO)
Is there a trace of peace just for me
Is there a word to set me free
Is there a brand new start
There is, it's inside my heart
--------------
And after all I've been through
I know one thing is true
All the answers I need
Are written inside of me
I hold the key to destiny
Though this is not a perfect world (Bridge II)
And I'm sure I won't give in
Let tomorrow begin
Repeat Chorus
Optional Turnaround Rap: Sometimes it's so hard to be strong
But I've known all along
It takes courage to try
With each day that goes by
Optional Answers On Fade:
At last the past cannot hurt me
Now I am different from what I once used to be
And I feel the pain is gone
Now I have different reasons to smile and to go on
Fade On Chorus
