I can’t STOP

A love song from my new opera, portraying a wealthy airline magnate who discovers that Rosina, his fiancée, is about to reunite with her former boyfriend from Italy, now visiting Taiwan. Struggling with his emotions, he decides to give Rosina the freedom to choose whom she wishes to marry."
Lyric:
[Intro]
Rosina dazed on this fateful night,
Let your heart be your guiding light.
With tender words, so I wrapped in sweet refrain,
With whispered dreams and slighted pain.

[Verse 1]
In the garden of Will, where shadows play,
I stand with heart on display,
With Nietzsche’s wisdom and Goethe’s glow,
He whispers softly, ‘tis you must know.

[Verse 2]
Rosina, choose who'll be your light,
Love shall guide you through the night.
A book of dreams within your palm, 
Sometimes, the peace will fly.
Though doubt may linger, and tears may pour out,
For our love sublime.

[Chorus]
Rosina, the heavens await,
Your choice will shape what we await,
Let your heart dictate your fate,
Through joy, through pain, love prevails.

[Chorus]
Rosina, my cherished star,
Let your spirit take its flight.
Choose the love that feels so right,
Under the moon’s soft light.

Nietzsche's Hint

Tattooed

In my mind there's a stormy tide
Voice whispers
Can't hide
Questions twist and turn inside
Reality gets denied

Is it me or is it you
Truth and lies tangled too
Love turned cold
Now it's blue
Under gaslights
Nothing's true

Am I the problem
Am I to blame
Caught in a cycle
No escape from this game
Hard to separate your lies from my fears
In the mirror
See my tears

Two battles fight
Day's a struggle
So's the night
Lost in doubts
No end in sight
Heart feels wrong
Mind ain't right

Am I the problem
Am I to blame
Caught in a cycle
No escape from this game
Hard to separate your lies from my fears
In the mirror
See my tears

If there's no reason to dislike or cold-shoulder someone, people will often invent one. Diamonds in the Snowlight are the erroneous beliefs some people have, thinking others are better off than they are. The piano parts convey snowflakes in a blizzard against bitterly cold scenery (the metaphorical Winter we all have to battle sometime in our lives). A song about exclusion & being frozen out due to envy or mistaken perceptions.

This is an alternative take on the original I released where it is more gentle and calm.  Predominantly the ballad highlights the lyrics.  It encompasses Alzheimers and Dementia, both of which have affected my family.  Photo from Unsplash by Linford Miles

Set free (Piano)

The profound love for my husband inspired me to compose this song, reflecting on our beautiful relationship and the challenges we've encountered during our long-distance journey as we eagerly await the moment we're finally together.

We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams.
