I wrote this song for my cousin and her loving family, who are dealing with the severe illness of their youngest child.  It is my hope that this short piece of music will provide them additional strength on their difficult journey.  More generally, the song is for all people that are are in a trying period with the intention of giving listeners some inspiration to get through the challenging times.

A huge thanks to my wonderful sister and brother-in-law, Mia and Paul Simmans, without whom this song would not have been arranged, performed or produced.  Lyrics are included below.

Weather the Storm (Music and Lyrics by Jesse Levin, Arranged and Performed by Jesse Levin, Mia Simmans and Paul Simmans)

When the dealer is set to take your next bet
No idea what the cards hold for you
Love, fortune and pain, a mysterious game
But one I’ll play here with you

I’ll be right here to weather the storm
To weather the storm here with you
I’ll be right here to weather the storm
To weather the storm here with you

When the tears won’t go away
And you feel like you can’t face the day
Just know that I’m here to stay
To help you get through

When the walls seem to fall to the ground
And you scream ‘till you can’t hear a sound
Remember, you’re not alone
I’m right here with you

When the day turns to night
And the cold starts to bite
At your heart that’s feeling so sore
I’ll be right here to weather the storm
To weather the storm once more

When the walls seem to fall to the ground
And you scream ‘till you can’t hear a sound
Remember, you’re not alone
I’m right here with you

When the moon is eclipsed by the cries from your lips
And you just can’t do anything more
With the forest ablaze you’re just so amazed
What reason all this could be for

I’ll be right here to weather the storm
To weather the storm here with you
I’ll be right here to weather the storm
To weather the storm here with you


Jesse Levin
