Lyrics:

Sitting here, lost in thoughts of you
The best thing that's ever come into view
With you, all seems possible, my guiding light
I love you, my greatest dream, shining bright

Every moment, every breath I take
Your love, a melody, my heart can't stake
Together, we're a perfect harmony
A love song written for eternity

You and I, we're two halves of a whole
Together we're complete, body and soul
In your arms, I'm where I belong
You're the love of my life, my forever song
(My forever song)

Your voice, a whisper on the breeze
Makes my heart flutter, brings me to my knees
Hand in hand, we'll face come what may
With you, my fears and doubts just fade away

Through stormy nights and sunny days
Our love lights up in a thousand ways
Two hearts beating as one, can't you see?
This is where we're meant to be

You and I, we're two halves of a whole
Together we're complete, body and soul
In your arms, I'm where I belong
You're the love of my life, my forever song
(My forever song)

When the world turns cold and gray
Your love warms me like a summer day
Our souls entwined, a love so pure
With you, I know I'll always endure

You and I, we're two halves of a whole
Together we're complete, body and soul
In your arms, I'm where I belong
You're the love of my life, my forever song

With you, the sun shines even brighter
My anchor, my rock, my faithful fighter
In this love, so deep and true
I've found my home, my heart, in you

(Ooooh, in you)
(My forever song)

My Forever Song

This track was written for the lovers who want to love deeply and overcome all the obstacles in the way like fear and doubt.

Love Must Win Lyrics

Where have you been
I have longed for your arrival 
Transcended to be seen
My eyes remain in disbelief 
Of what’s left to be lived 
What’s left to be deeply lived 

So here we are, trying to remove
The fear from the love 
The fear from the love 
So love can win

Here we are, needing to know
That fear can fail 
And love can prevail 
Because love must win 
(Love must win)

For you and I 
Nothing left between us 
But the raw reasons to believe 
And be willing to get hurt 

I know it’s not easy 
We’ve been burned before
But what’s existence for?
If we let the walls close in
Break that wall (Break that wall)

Here we are, trying to sort out
The fear from the love (Love, Love, Love)
The fear from the love (Love, Love, Love)
So love can win (Love can win)

For the sake of the children (The children)
Their innocence must be saved (Saved) 
For the sake of humanity’s dignity 
Oh God, for the sake of our sanity!  
For the deep thinkers and travellers
The passionate revellers and  lovers  
Like you and me (You, You and me) 
Oooooohhhhhhh Ahhhhhhhhhh 

Here we are, needing to know
That fear can fail (Fail, fail)
And love can prevail (Prevail)
Because love must win (Love must win)

I want to know you, oh so deep
I want to be known, so deep
By you, your mind, your heart 
Please, please (please)  
Please step right in (Step right in)
We must find 
What can't separate us apart, forever 
I want to know 
But I cannot know
I have to risk it all, risk it all
For all of us because we are so worth it 

So here we are, risking the hurt again
Can the fear die for love (Love, Love, Love)
Can the fear die for love (Love, Love, Love)
So love can win (Love can win)
For you and I, love must win

Here we are, needing to know
That fear can fail (Fail)
And love can prevail (Prevail)
Because love must win (Love must win)

Love Must Win

You know when you have too many broken hearts and it's hard to to be vulnerable and courageous again to let yourself fall in love again - looking for the right person that never comes and you wonder why - hmmmm - this song is about that dilemma! 

I wanted to write a classical song - I wanted it about love but recalled my experience in my early years where I was afraid to commit, to fall and trust again.

Thanks AI for helping me land this track to this point reasonably quickly!  The song was butchered at the end so I needed to do some edit and restructure on the layers by splitting the stems and extending the song. A great demo for now for I do say so myself - it moved me. 

There is a hint of an extension of the love theme from my previous music video Once Upon A View I released on Youtube with an 1899 Cinderella Silent Film I was able to use! "The shoe must fit" :) 

Serve Love Lyrics

Upon a view at sunrise 
What lies ahead for you? 
Can there be love this time 
Waiting just for you?

I see again hesitation in those eyes 
Heels dug into grass brown stained 
What must lie on the other side
To defer again to another day?

Courage could not come soon enough 
But will it come at all?
You half-heartedly signed up for love 
With no stomach for the fall

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because you serve love

Love has a lot to give 
But the shoe must also fit 
Love will refuse to stay 
It will indeed pull away
From the foolish takers 
The broken deniers 
Who sadly turn lovers 
Into runners for cover 

Courage could not come soon enough 
It won’t have to come soon
If you fool heartedly signed up 
To play lovers like fools

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because we serve love

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

Upon a view to shine (shine) 
What be your kind? (the kind)
For the torch bearer (does know)
The light of truth fires up the passion 
oooooooh, ahhhhhhh

I see contemplation in your eyes 
Beneath stirring feet, you rise 
Committed to loving ways 
For much better days (better days)
The story goes, you wised up 
Bold tales of breaking down walls
That you full heartedly signed up 
To take the lead and light the way

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

(c) George Helou

Serve Love

This represents my story about how I was in a war zone at 5 years of age - a bomb exploded across an intersection from our apartment where I was standing on the balcony. I witnessed a young girl pass away from it - I was too young if there is any age to confront such horror. 

Many experiences starting with this one made me run from my dreams. I share how I managed to outgrow my fear. Many people relate to this story because we are all on that mission to overcome our fears, traumas and conditioning. 

Here I Am Lyrics 

Where to start? 
Maybe right from the start 
Burned in my soul 
An explosion mark 
A tail of smoke
Big boom, hurry run!
Running, running
Where are you mum?

Shockwaves blew 5 years 
Of innocence away 
Saw evil killing 
Boys and girls in its way
Realisation that 
Faceless monsters exist
Raise that guard 
For the stones and sticks

Upon me and around me
So much to do 
Stay in your shell kid
They’re in a bad mood
Park your dreams
Wish your wishes away
Trust once in yourself 
And they’ll make you pay

Where am I going? 
Who should I be?
Can I exist 
Beyond here?
This fear’s too heavy
For my knees
Can’t keep running
From who to be

Was too busy to find me
Too busy to find me
But here I am, here I am 
Got lost in the grinding
It sadly defined me 
But here I am, here I am
I feel so alive, 
This me I can’t hide
Here I am, here I am
Here I ammmmmmm!  

What a nice quiet kid
They’re so eager to say
Does what he’s told
He must be okay
Loyal to the one goal
To simply assimilate 
Camouflaged like vanilla
What a fate 

Must please them 
So they’ll accept you 
Be invisible 
So they can’t reject you
Put your hands down
Kill the attention
Before you fail
Avoid their detection

What’s this place 
That pushes me down?
Where does it come from? 
Why does it come?
Who are these creatures
Waiting in shadows?
Time to call their bluff
Hey! Come take me, awayyyyyy! 

Woooooaaaaahhhhhhhh!
Come take me, awayyyyy! 
Woooooaaaaahhhhhhhh!

Where did they go? 
I surrendered to their power
Are they that gutless?
Or was I the conductor?
Of their power 
To keep me from myself 
To keep me being 
Anything but myself

Where was I going? 
What to be?
Time to exist 
Beyond here
The fear was heavy
For my knees
Gotta stop running
From who to be

Was too busy to find me
Too busy to find me
But here I am, here I am 
Got lost in the grinding
It sadly defined me 
But here I am, here I am
I feel so alive, 
This me I can’t hide
Here I am, here I am
Here I ammmmmmm!

Where next?
This is a brand-new start
Creating from my soul 
Leave legacy marks
Precious trails 
Off memories and fun
Flowing, flowing
From heart to mind

Where next?
This is a brand-new start
Creating from my soul 
Leave legacy marks
Precious trails 
Off memories and fun
Flowing, flowing
This is my time

Here I Am

The rapid evolution of AI and all tech is clashing with the definition of what it means to be an artist, to create and to deliver meaningful value to ourselves and each other. 

This song calls out for a humbling to embrace the opportunities, temper the judgement and to allow new dynamics of expression and allow the adventure of where it lands, how it continues to evolve for a new balance of a sustainable value exchange. I see creativity and artistry to become a part of each human's way to express their purpose and emotion. 

The tech is far from perfect and may never truly get there, but it does deliver a platform that is truly spectacular and only keeps getting better. This song was frustrating because I could not get production with AI to avoid over-production and what I consider unnecessary layers of sounds. At least this is a kick ass demo for a future version cleaner and more refined. 

Joy Waves Lyrics 

You want the best for me 
So, I flow for you to see
In my proudest moments 
You’re neither felt or keen  
To express in the present 
How you experienced me 
Left hanging for timely attention
Left joy, joined the confusion 

I look closely and I see
A person caught in fear 
Incapable of creating 
Fearing the exposing
Embarrassing mistakes 
Costly trembling takes 
Evidence for the fail 
Reasons to quickly bail 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high) 

Between black ’n white worlds 
Be petty or be understanding 
Driven by the desire to serve  
How do I balance the dividing?
Exit its fear while holding on 
To the pained eyes that roll 
Grasping for significance 
With perfection insistence 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

I look closely and I see
A person caught in fear 
Incapable of a new race 
Competing for space 
Troubled by a new face
Costly hesitation takes 
Complacency centre stage
In a cloak ’n dagger game

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Those flexing creative prestige 
Frowning at unconventional ways 
That surf the waves of innovation 
Creating light speed exhilaration 
Worried to lose what they don’t have 
Yet right here, right now, it’s 
All at our fingertips 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)  

The fans motivate  
The haters motivate  
The true creators 
Respect the balance  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Joy Waves

Soul Bell Lyrics   

To reach me is not easy
I’m busy being tough
Too busy trying too hard
To be what? Never enough 

Who’s the authority of my approval? 
Who’s ordained with perfect vision? 
Who’s threatening my removal
On this hoop jumping mission?

In a battle with this crazy world 
Is a cruel fight with who exactly?
Must deal with my judgement hurl
That inner deep unsatisfactory

I’m not allowed to look there
I can never have the time
Flaws and failure if I dare
Is the only thing I’ll find.

Yet I exist, I persist,
So confusing, so deluding
Dividing myself from divine right
Busy excusing and exuding

Lies, lies, lies about 
Self, self, self
Cry, cry, deny all
Help, help, help
Lies, lies, lies about
Self, self self
Can’t deny, it’s time
To ring my soul bell!  

Time for my fervour
What must be true?
Can’t look any further
Than my creation in view

What God-Universe is in me?
How truly loving must it be?
Would it choose my absence?
Or am I an eternal substance?
 
I am taking a risk on the latter
Just be me, I already matter
No longer trapped in roles
with self defeating goals

The lies, lies, lies now end
Truth does finally set me free
To view all with the omni lens
Precious artists and artworks in progress

Soul Bell

We wish for all our young to find their strength and voice through the challenges of their teens. 

Your Voice Lyrics   

Crying eyes, hard shut 
You still found my thumb 
And squeezed it firmly 
The start of our story
That moment you were born 
A miracle to our world
That day I had sworn
To protect you, baby girl

Yet, I noticed very early 
You were a cautious one 
I fished, throwing burley 
As you climbed rocks for fun
I said and did nothing 
Knowing you’d be fine 
Standing between gull and fish 
You protected our dinner dish 

We thought we protected you 
You did conquer cliffs 
But there was more to do 
Dealing with sociopaths 
Should have seen them coming
Conditioned for the shunning
You were their bait 
They maimed your faith 

A fate we had to change 
Unfitting for a heart so pure 
We were too slow to chase 
Ideas lodged to endure
We watched the pain set in 
Taking over your life force 
Our tools unable to get in
Trampled on a dark course  

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that now leads  
Hearts to melt 

You had to realise 
All on your own 
That breaking free 
Is not done alone 
Though the choice 
Was to be made by you  
Making a difference 
Starts with you 

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that leads  
Hearts to melt 

What a platform
You now enjoy 
In great form
Finding your joy
Taking your ups
With your downs 
Building self-love 
So much found 

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that leads  
Hearts to melt

Sweet, sweet voice 
Strong ‘n carefree 
Sweet, sweet voice 
Knowing how to be  
Sweet, sweet voice 
Standing tall 
Sweet, sweet voice 
Handling it all 
In great company

Your Voice

I create music as a hobby and as a therapy and provide workshops for others to do that too, using AI to help produce tracks. I also create empowerment systems to help people at scale increase their confidence and resilience by engaging their adaptive nature and work towards living a purposeful life. While all my song lyrics are written by me, and some tracks come from my personal compositions including instrumentals that I add lyrics to, I use AI to merge these with songs I share with you here. It really makes you realise how important your own words are in a song.

Love Must Win
