Tears in my eyes, you’re not by my side
Broken heart, broken soul, broken pride

I’m never gonna fall in love again
Cuz I’ve learned with love you just can’t win

Love is painful, it breaks you down


c h o r u s

I tried, but I can’t control
These feelings deep down in my soul

My heart loves him still
And though the pain is so real

I know time will heal


v e r s e  2

I can’t say that I don’t miss him cuz that’s not the truth
I’m lying to myself, first love of my youth

What’s my heart trying to do to me
I’ll lock it up and throw away the key

I’m not weak, but my heart is now

Time Heals

v e r s e  1

You never knew
You never understood
What I secretly held inside

You never saw
Every tear drop
That fell down from my eyes

I loved you each and every day
But you didn’t feel the same


c h o r u s

I wish I were the one you loved with all your soul
 I wish I were the one you would always stay close to
I wish I could do something to make you turn around
And see me there beside you, but I just don’t know how
I wish I were the one, I wish I were the one you loved


v e r s e  2

You’re in my heart
You’re in my soul
Even though I moved

I’m so tired
Of pretending
That I don’t have feelings for you

I surrender, I’m giving up
What could I do for your love

Wish I Were The One

A star belongs in the sky
Should never be brought down to earth

We have to say goodbye
Cause we both know it can’t work


c h o r u s

How could I love you
We both know I can’t
You’re a star in the sky from another planet

How could I love you
We both know I can’t
So I’ll love you from where I stand


v e r s e  2

It’s a dead end road
No matter how hard I try

You know that we are too different
No I can’t be in your sight

Where I Stand

v e r s e  1

I won’t fear anything
Cause you are with me
Lead my life until the end
Draw me close to you
 When I feel all alone
You are with me
You cover me
I need you more than anything


c h o r u s

Jesus, Jesus
You are my everything


v e r s e  2

I need your embrace
I need your grace
Come into my life
Pour your loveliness inside

You Are My Everything

v e r s e  1

In the crowd
Forgetting about my pain
Looking for the one I miss
It’s so dark and I’m a mess

I have found 
Everyone I’m searching for
Except the one who’s in my soul


c h o r u s

Home sweet watani
My home my sweet
Home sweet watani
I love you, mawtini


v e r s e  2

I feel lost
Oh I’m missing you
I can’t see you but I feel you
You’re my light that guides me through

Home

c h o r u s

Dear life, you give me things I want
Dear life, you give me things I need
Dear life, you give me wonderful years
Dear life, you give me my, you give me my journey


v e r s e  1

I’m flying with it 
This is beautiful
Sometimes I hate you
But you’re wonderful
I’m just a girl who likes to talk
So now I’ll say

You’re amazing


v e r s e  2

I’m losing faith
I’m losing me
A million people here
But I feel lonely
Lost in this world
Lost in my life

But you’re still amazing

Dear Life

v e r s e  1

How hard to live for life
Feeling the world’s not fair
Forget all the strife
Don’t give up for what you care


c h o r u s

 Forget it all now
Everything is gone
Hoping to get better
It’s going to get better

Hard times all around
Everyone is gone
Hoping to get better
It’s going to get better


v e r s e  2

Now get out from depression
Faith will give you strength to face
Decide to change direction
Run to a better place


b r i d g e

Everything is in God’s hand
There will be a way for you
Better hope, better life, better land
All your dreams will come true

3 Chords is a non-profit organization aimed at helping refugee youth share their stories through original songs in hopes of fostering global understanding and respect. We work with high school aged refugees in Nashville, TN to teach them how to write and perform original songs and play an instrument to tell share stories with the community and world.

The name 3 Chords comes from a phrase songwriters often say - that the only thing you need to write a song is "three chords and the truth." We take that phrase to heart, believing that it can empower high school refugees new to America to realize that if they can simply learn three chords on an instrument, that's all they'd need to be able to tell their truth through music.
