This surprising new release is an original acoustic song, inspired by the late Nick Drake. In a minimalist acoustic production. The song was originally written from a place of anger and frustration, and following happy changes in Elad's personal life, the lyrics were changed and became more optimistic.
lyrics
My path to you
On a gray ground, I tread,
Beneath a sky of ash and red.
The earth is scorched, my path's a trail,
But with you in my thoughts, I'll never fail.
You're my guardian angel, shining bright,
Guiding me through the dark, both day and night.
A lake in the distance comes in view,
But as I near, it disappears too.
My clothes are worn, my face is scarred,
But with you by my side, It won’t be hard.
You're my guardian angel, shining bright,
Guiding me through the dark...
When the road gets tough, and you feel like giving up,
Remember why you started, and hold on! hold on to the love...
You're my guardian angel, shining bright,
Guiding me through the dark, both day and night.
