LYRICS
Notte silenziosa sei qui
Sento che mi manchi tu
Sotto questo cielo blu
Cerco il tuo sguardo ancora
Baci rubati nel buio
Parole che bruciano ancora
Pensieri che mi legano
A te come un'ombra

Oh luna
Dentro di me
Brilla come un fuoco acceso
Il tuo amore mi illumina
Non lasciarmi solo mai

Ricordo il tuo profumo
Un sogno che non scappa via
Ogni battito del cuore
Canta il tuo nome ancora
Siamo lontani ma sento
Il calore delle tue mani
Un abbraccio senza fine
Tra le stelle insieme

Oh luna
Dentro di me
Brilla come un fuoco acceso
Il tuo amore mi illumina
Non lasciarmi solo mai
(Oh-oh)
(Oh-oh)
Non lasciarmi solo mai

Ricordo il tuo profumo
Un profumo, un sogno che non scappa via
Ogni battito del cuore
Canta il tuo nome ancora
Siamo lontani ma sento
Il calore delle tue mani
Un abbraccio senza fine
Tra le stelle insieme

Oh luna
Dentro di me
Brilla come un fuoco acceso
Il tuo amore mi illumina
Non lasciarmi solo mai

Oh luna
Dentro di me
Brilla come un fuoco acceso
Il tuo amore mi illumina
Non lasciarmi solo mai

Luna Dentro di Me

Fly With Me My Love

This is “You’re Still Here” like you’ve never heard it before. “Lara’s Cut” is not just a re-recording - it’s a rediscovery. 

The emotions come through with full force - raw, soaring, and unapologetically powerful. Blending Lara’s ethereal signature sound with a bold new edge, this version captures the weight of every word and the strength behind every note. It’s a fearless expression of what it means to still feel, still remember, and still hold on.

LYRICS
When the day is through, I feel you near, 
Whispers of your voice, so strong, so clear, 
Guiding me through shadows, hand in hand, 
You were the rock on which I learned to stand.

You taught me love, without a word to say, 
In your silent strength, you showed the way, 
Through every storm, you stood by me, 
Now in my heart, your love’s the key. 

Oh, I miss you, but I feel you near, 
In every memory, you’re still here, 
Grateful for the time, for all we’ve shared, 
A love so strong, beyond compare.

The world feels colder since you’ve gone, 
But your light inside me carries on, 
Every lesson, every smile you gave, 
Lives on in me, beyond the grave.

Oh, I miss you, but I feel you near, 
In every memory, you’re still here, 
Grateful for the time, for all we’ve shared, 
A love so strong, beyond compare.

In the echoes of our laughter, in the tears we cried,
I find you in the moments where our worlds collide,
In every breath I take, in all I do,
A part of me will always be with you.

Oh, I miss you, but I feel you near, 
In every memory, you’re still here, 
Grateful for the time, for all we’ve shared, 
A love so strong, beyond compare.

Oh, I miss you, but I feel you near, 
In every memory, you’re still here, 
Grateful for the time, for all we’ve shared, 
A love so strong, beyond compare.

So here’s to you, for all you gave,
In my heart, your love will stay,
Grateful for a bond so true,
Forever. Dad, I'll cherish you.

You're Still Here (Lara's Cut)

Years are passing, yet the silence grows heavier.
The fires never faded - instead they spread, and the cries beneath the rubble echo louder than before.

This new recording of Underneath the Ashes is not just a song —
it’s a lament for lives uprooted, for homes turned to dust, for hope buried beneath the weight of war.

With haunting strings and raw emotion, this piece mourns what should have ended — but hasn’t. It is for Ukraine. It is for Palestine. It is for whoever is next.

For every name we’ll never know.
For every voice buried in the ruins.
For peace that still hasn’t come.

LYRICS
Whispers in the wind, skies painted gray
Empty streets where children used to play
Silent cries beneath the shattered light
The world keeps turning, but it don't feel right

In the ashes, hope flickers and fades
Dreams like shadows slip further away
Cold hands reach for something they can't find
Still we're breathing, holding on to time

Underneath the Ashes, we're searching for signs
A spark in the shadows, a flicker of time
Though the world is burning, we won't fade away
Underneath the ashes, we'll find our way

Voices break like waves upon the shore
We've been here before, yet we still want more
Through the darkness, searching for the day
Maybe love will guide us through the fray

Underneath the Ashes, we're searching for signs
A spark in the shadows, a flicker of time
Though the world is burning, we won't fade away
Underneath the ashes, we'll find our way

In the quiet, we mend what's torn
From the ruins, something new is born
In the cracks, we see the stars above
Even in the wreckage, there's a trace of love

Underneath the Ashes, we're searching for signs
A spark in the shadows, a flicker of time
Though the world is burning, we won't fade away
Underneath the ashes, we'll find our way

Underneath the Ashes (2025 Redux)

“Love Beckons Again” is a modern love ballad about second chances — when time and distance fade but the heart still remembers. In her signature blend of fragility and strength, Lara Ash brings to life the quiet hope of reconnecting, of healing, and of daring to believe in love once more. With soaring melodies and emotional depth, this song is a reminder that even after heartbreak, love has a way of finding its way back.

LYRICS
I used to know you so well
When we were young, our hearts rebelled
But time has turned us far apart
Now I'm left with a broken heart

But I won't let this be the end
I'll find a way to mend and transcend
The pain and sorrow that we shared
'Cause deep inside, I know you still care

Love beckons again, it's calling my name
I'll find my way back, love won't be in vain
Together we'll rise, like a phoenix in flight
We'll reignite the fire and make everything right

Through every storm, through every night,
I felt the loss of our fading light.
Yet in my heart, your memory's bright,
A guiding star in the darkest plight.

Oh, Oh, Love beckons again, it's calling my name
I'll find my way back, love won't be in vain
Together we'll rise, like a phoenix in flight
We'll reignite the fire and make everything right

Now with open arms and open hearts,
We'll mend the dreams that drifted apart.
Under stars aglow, our promises keep,
In this dance of love

Love beckons again, it's calling my name
I'll find my way back, love won't be in vain
Together we'll rise, like a phoenix in flight
We'll reignite the fire and make everything right

Love Beckons Again

A soft cry through silence. Love Will Know the Way is a deeply personal ballad about longing, memory, and the quiet belief that love never truly fades. With a blend of melancholy and hope, this song traces the outline of someone still waiting, still believing, even when all signs seem lost. Backed by a cinematic mix of piano, strings, and a subtle heartbeat of rhythm, it builds from stillness to strength, echoing the truth that love, no matter how far it drifts, always finds its way home.

LYRICS
I watch the rain trace lines across the glass
Like memories I thought would never last
I whisper words I never got to say
And hope they somehow reach you anyway

I still set the table just for two
As if somehow it might bring back you
Each silence speaks the things we couldn’t say
But I keep holding on to “maybe someday”

Love will know the way, I feel it still inside
Even if the years and miles have tried to hide
I don’t know the road, I don’t know the time
But I still believe your heart remembers mine
Love will know the way
Love will know the way

I’ve walked alone through seasons made of grey
But something in me never fades away
A light you left still flickers deep inside
It’s how I know the heart can still decide

Love will know the way, I feel it still inside
Even if the years and miles have tried to hide
I don’t know the road, I don’t know the time
But I still believe your heart remembers mine
Love will know the way
Love will know the way

And if the stars forget to shine
I’ll still be here, a light, a line
Between the past and what could be
Still waiting for you quietly

Love will know the way, I feel it still inside
Even if the years and miles have tried to hide
I don’t know the road, I don’t know the time
But I still believe your heart remembers mine
Love will know the way
Love will know the way

If you’re out there, if you ever stray
Love will know the way

Love Will Know the Way

"I’ll Be There" is a heartfelt ballad about being someone’s constant - their voice in the silence, their calm in the storm. With Lara Ash’s hauntingly beautiful vocals, this track wraps you in comfort and quiet strength. It’s for anyone who’s ever needed a light in the dark, and for those who are that light for someone else.

Let it remind you, even in the shadows, you’re never truly alone.


LYRICS
When your dreams start to fade,
And the night feels too long,
I’ll be the voice in the silence,
Guiding you where you belong.

When the weight’s on your chest,
And you can’t find the air,
I’ll be the breath that you need,
A whisper to show I care.

I’ll be there when the world turns cold,
In the shadows, in the unknown.
I’ll be there when you lose your way,
In the quiet, in the fray.

When you’re caught in the storm,
And the thunder won’t cease,
I’ll be the calm in the chaos,
Your harbor of peace.

I’ll be there when the world turns cold,
In the shadows, in the unknown.
I’ll be there when you lose your way,
In the quiet, in the fray.

When the doubts start to rise,
And you’re feeling unsure,
I’ll be the truth in your eyes,
A presence steady and pure.

I’ll be there when the world turns cold,
In the shadows, in the unknown.
I’ll be there when you lose your way,
In the quiet, in the fray.

I’ll be there when the stars don’t shine,
In the stillness, in your mind.
I’ll be there when the night feels long,
By your side, where we’re strong.

I'll Be There (Remastered)

A heartfelt country ballad that weaves a love story across decades, Wait for Me tells of a promise made in youth and kept for a lifetime. Inspired by the power of a simple letter, it blends tender storytelling with warm, timeless melodies, carrying listeners from a fairground meeting in the 1940s to a quiet riverside where love endures beyond goodbye.

LYRICS
I found a letter in a box
Underneath my grandma’s bed
Tied with ribbon, kept with care
And this is what it said
“Darlin’, life’s a winding road
And mine’s still miles away
But if you promise you’ll be there
I’ll come for you someday”

Mama told me how they met
At a fair in forty-two
He was leaving for the army then
But he swore he’d come back soon
Through every letter, every tear
They kept their dreams alive
Of a little place by the river bend
And the letter ended with these words to her

"If you find that place before I do
Save a spot for me
I’ll be coming when my time here’s through
Whenever that may be
I won’t let the years between us
Steal what’s meant to be
So don’t forget, my only love
Wait for me"

When he came back, he took her hand
And made that girl his bride
They found a piece of land to build
By the gentle riverside
Every spring they’d sit and watch
the willow sway with grace
And she’d smile and say, “If I go first
That’s where you’ll find my warm embrace”

"If you find that place before I do
Save a spot for me
I’ll be coming when my time here’s through
Whenever that may be
I won’t let the years between us
Steal what’s meant to be
So don’t forget, my only love
Wait for me"

Now I’m standing by her side
As the good Lord calls her home
Granddad takes her hand and whispers
Some familiar words she’s always known

"If you find that place before I do
Save a spot for me
I’ll be coming when my time here’s through
Whenever that may be
I won’t let the years between us
Steal what’s meant to be
So don’t forget, my only love
Wait for me"

Don’t forget…
Wait for me.

Wait for Me
