Translation of the Belgian (flemish) classic ‘Laat ons een bloem’ by Louis Neefs.

Let us a flower

You Walked Away

Celestial Dance

I don’t have gold and riches
But God I’m wealthy 
I don’t have strong bones
But God I’m healthy 
Neglect was all I knew 
But God I’m so loved 
Let down a time or two
But God I’m enough 

Cuz You give me
You give me what I need
You tell me
What you need from me
You lead me
Through waters so deep
Lord you give me 
You Give me what I need  

The path may look real dim
But God you light the way
This world is filled with sin
But God Im not afraid 
The doctors may say no
But God you’re saying yes!
The evil one will show
But God I will not stress 

Cuz You give me
You give me what I need
You tell me
What you need from me
You lead me
Through waters so deep
Lord you give me 
You Give me what I need  

The wounds cut deep
But God you will restore 
depression builds
But God you’re at that door 
The days grow cold
But God youre my fire 
Everything gets old 
But God you’re my desire 

I don’t have it all 
But I have what I need
A savior sent to die just for me
I don’t have it all
But I have what I need
A best friend for eternity
I don’t have it all
But I have what I need
A father who will never leave 

Cuz You give me
You give me what I need
You tell me
What you need from me
You lead me
Through waters so deep
Lord you give me 
Give me what I need  
God you are 
You’re all I’ll ever need!!

But God

She said hi like it meant something
I thought "What does she want from me?"
Pretty eyes, too much grace
I laughed and looked the other way

She asked questions I didn’t hear
I answered like a volunteer
Thought she was bored, just killing time
Didn’t know she was crossing lines

She made me talk, made me feel seen
Asked about my childhood dreams
I thought, "She’s sweet, but not for real..."
But hearts don’t care what fools conceal

Didn’t think she could — but she did
Crawled in slow, then tore off the lid
I thought I knew the game, thought I stood
Above the fall, above the flood
Didn’t think she could break me clean
With half a smile and in-between
I looked away, thought she was bluffin’
Now I sit here asking “How did this happen?”

She took her time, didn’t rush
Read me like a paperback crush
Made me believe I had control
While she was gently digging holes

A thousand texts, a midnight call
A joke I made — she laughed too small
She never said “I’m yours” or “stay”
But somehow, I gave it all anyway

She never promised, never lied
Just made me feel... then stepped aside
Like I was just a warm-up act
In her slow romantic sneak attack

Didn’t think she could — but she did
Built a castle, then closed the lid
Left a note, not even signed
Took my calm and scrambled my mind
Didn’t think she could, not like this
She turned a shrug into a kiss
Then walked away like nothin’ happened
And I sit here asking “How did this happen?”

I thought I was the clever one
Who saw right through the games she'd run
But turns out... she wasn't chasing
She was choosing
Then… erasing

Didn’t think she could — oh God, she did
Tore through me like a breaking bid
Smiled once, and now I'm wrecked
A man unmade by intellect
Didn’t think she’d want to win
But she took my heart and mailed it in
I said “She’s nice, but she’s not my type”
Turns out, heartbreak wears pearls and stripes

Didn’t think...
Didn’t think…
Didn’t think she could.

But she did.

Didn’t Think She Could

Bleeding Hearts And the Songs I'll Never Write

"Still I Shine" ist ein tief emotionales, kunstvoll arrangiertes Stück, das Schmerz in Schönheit verwandelt. Zwischen sanft gezupfter Gitarre, einer expressiven Solo-Violine und einem moderaten Pop-Fusion-Groove erzählt der Song von einem gebrochenen Versprechen – und von der Kraft, die aus dieser Wunde wächst.

Der Song beginnt fragil: mit einem Hauch von Verlust und leiser Resignation. Doch Takt für Takt formt sich aus der Leere neue Stärke. Die Violine führt wie ein zweites Herz durch das Stück, mal klagend, mal erhebend. Im Refrain bricht das Licht durch ,nicht als Euphorie, sondern als stille, echte Selbstbehauptung: „Still I shine, though the sky turned grey.“

Es ist ein Lied für alle, die verlassen wurden, aber nicht zerbrochen sind. Ein Klanggedicht über Wiedergeburt, Verletzlichkeit und das leise Wunder, sich selbst zurückzugeben, was man einst verschenkt hat.

Still I Shine
