MY HEALING HEART

V1
You were always by my side
Helping me stay strong enough to cope 
You used to sail me through the storms
And show me there was always hope

V2
Now I'm drifting without you 
Floating on a cloud of sorrow
I cry your name out loud at night
You won't be by my side tomorrow

PRE
Dear God come glide across
The waters of my fragile soul
Show me now, show me how to save

CHORUS 
My healing heart my healing heart 
Has a wide-open space
I'm feeling lost since we've been apart 
I long for your embrace
The memories will stay with me 
Stop the tears from my pain
I want to fill the void with love again 
My healing heart

BRIDGE 
Tell me how to see
Tell me how to see the meaning
I know, I know (whisper)
Time will lead my soul 
Time will lead my soul to healing

CHORUS x 2
My healing heart my healing heart
Has a wide-open space
I'm feeling lost since we've been apart
I long for your embrace
The memories will stay with me
Stop the tears from my pain
I want to fill the void with love again
My healing heart

OUTRO
You were always by my side 
Helping me stay strong and cope
You used to sail me through the storms
Now I have found a place for love and hope
In my healing heart

"Hold Me Just One More Night"

V1
I’m watching you silently breathing
My mind's a blur of regret, now you're leaving
Oh you’re leaving
It feels like I'm dying inside from the things I wanted to hide
I can never undo this hurt
Even if I tried, even if I tried

CHORUS
This emptiness I call my own
On and on cuts through my bones
Our love is cold as stone
No you’re not coming home
I wish I never took your heart
Put out that fire from the start
Oh, if I could rewind
Would you hold me just for one more night

V2
When sigils fall like rain
On the city pavement dressed in a cold embrace
A pain I can't erase
So is there nothing left here worth fighting for babe
Cause I lost my way
And I know I’m the one to blame

CHORUS
This emptiness I call my own
On and on cuts through my bones
Our love is cold as stone
No you’re not coming home
I wish I never took your heart
Put out that fire from the start
Oh, if I could rewind
Would you hold me just for one more night

BRIDGE 
Instrumental

CHORUS
This emptiness I call my own
On and on it cuts through my bones
Our love is cold as stone
No you’re not coming home
I wish I never took your heart
Put out that fire from the start
Oh, if I could rewind
Would you hold me just for one more night

V1
So we get 2 billion heartbeats in a lifetime
Well I’ve spent too many on shut eyes and white lies  
There’s just no stopping you, I’ve cut, I’ve glued  
But somehow we fell through, the cracks in me and you

CHORUS 
All I did, all I did, all I did was just give you my heart
But you ripped it apart - Didn’t you
All I need, all I need, all I needed was love from the start 
Was that so damn hard to do
It seems the deeper you love, the deeper you bruise

V2 
Now the truth I could not miss, sat softly on my lips
Like a kiss, that stops me breathing
Like a song that had me deaf, every lie that you had said  
Had stopped me listening to my soul’s whispering

CHORUS
All I did, all I did, all I did was just give you my heart 
But you ripped it apart - Didn’t you
All I need, all I need, all I needed was love from the start
Was that so damn hard to do

BRIDGE 
I’ve been staying up all night, getting drunk getting high
The bottom of the bottle looks blue
I’ve been thinking blurry thoughts from a tender heart 
The deeper you love, the deeper you bruise

INSTRUMENTAL

CHORUS
All I did, all I did, all I did was just give you my heart
But you ripped it apart - Didn’t you
All I need, all I need, all I needed was love from the start
Was that so damn hard to do

It seems the deeper you love, the deeper you bruise

V1 
Tonight is the best night of my life 
Never felt like this before - so alive
You make me smile
Feel like I can fly 
Hold me tight
Hearts pumping till sunrise

CHORUS
The silver stars bring us together 
I wanna dive into your arms 
I wanna feel this way forever 
Feel the fire burning in my heart
The silver stars pull us closer
Rolling thunder wild explosions
Lost in the rhythm, never alone
Come on - dance me home

V2 
Feel our body and soul so in tune
Riding waves around the sun and the moon
You’re like a beam 
Shine so I can see 
Hold me tight
Hearts pumping till sunrise

CHORUS
The silver stars bring us together 
I wanna dive into your arms 
I wanna feel this way forever 
Feel the fire burning in my heart
The silver stars pull us closer
Rolling thunder wild explosions
Lost in the rhythm, never alone
Come on - dance me home

If I Could

Vocals: Alessandra Votta

Lyric video:
https://youtu.be/uIwdvdAaTs8?si=3wmOF477Fe96FXnE


V1
Night time enters the little cafe on a city's side street
A table for two with me trying to ignore the empty seat
Did I just see an old faded flame through the misty window
Where someone has drawn a split heart with a faint glow

PRE
And I need a new perspective from way up above

CHORUS
If I could only soar high like an eagle
I could see the world from up there
See what's going on down here
If I could only take a ride on a rainbow
I could be free and release my pain
Let my heart beat for love again

V2
Roll out of bed solo and step outside on a sunny day
I meander around and kneel to pick a little snowdrop bouquet
Did I just hear a soundless echo of what my life's become
Lost in a crowd - I wanna feel close to someone

PRE
And I need a new perspective from way up above

CHORUS
If I could only soar high like an eagle
I could see the world from up there
See what's going on down here
If I could only take a ride on a rainbow
I could  be free and release my pain
Let my heart beat for love again


BRIDGE
I'm watching another Twilight fade
For every mistake I ever made
And the blind alleys I often paved
I'll rise above the endless waves

CHORUS
If I could only soar high like an eagle
I could see the world from up there
See what's going on down here
If I could only take a ride on a rainbow
I could be free and release my pain
Let my heart beat for love again

If I Could (feat. Alessandra Votta)

The Sound Of An Empty House

V1:
Lonely hangers - dusty shelves
Plates playing hide’n seek in the sink
Echoes of our love, chime like distant bells
While the scent of you is still so distinct
I hear the sound
I fear the sound of an empty house

CHORUS
Like an actor without a part to play
I’m chasing your touch till morning light
Time slipped through our fingers - I wish me back
Back to laughter and hope burning bright

V2:
Roaming dim-lit halls - restless thoughts
Ain't giving me any chance to unwind
Life shattered on the floor like broken cups
Rips me apart leaving chaos inside
I hear the sound
I fear the sound of an empty house

CHORUS
Like an actor without a part to play
I’m chasing your touch till morning light
Time slipped through our fingers - I wish me back
Back to laughter and hope burning bright

BRIDGE
(Instrumental part)
There’s no room for sorrow’s storm anymore
When there’s an ocean outside my door

CHORUS
Like an actor without a part to play
I’m chasing your touch till morning light
Time slipped through our fingers - I wish me back
Back to laughter and hope burning bright

The Sound of an Empty House

Hi! 
I'm a Danish songwriter diving into the music scene with fresh enthusiasm. My musical journey has been a colorful tapestry woven with influences ranging from 80s synth to classical melodies. 

Crafting compositions that resonate deeply and stand out has always fascinated me. Now, I've embarked on a new chapter, translating my thoughts and emotions into soul-stirring music. 

Through experimentation and pushing boundaries, I'm on a quest to discover my unique sonic identity. 

Join me on this adventure, and I hope my music strikes a chord with you
