Song Nr. 3
Marcella. Inspired by a picture sent by a friend.
It's about this girl Marcella who is not quite confident with her current situation by migrate to another country but it had and has to be and it's for a good reason so that she's safe now. She's from italy, that's where her heart still is.
It' total fiction and I'm a bit proud. Story, Melody, managing to get into the high voice out of low voice. More melody less lyrics.
Marcella
Marcella steht in der Küche und ihr geht es gut
Das war nicht immer so
Marcella backt ne Pizza und träumt sich nach Italien
Sie hat ihren Frieden gemacht
Chorus:
Oh Marcella das Herz in Italien alles andere ist hier
Marcella weiß warum, sie schaut jetzt nach vorn
das fällt ihr schwer
Marcella vergisst nicht was sie alles hatte
Sie ist dankbar dafür
Chorus
Marcella - das Herz noch in Italien, alles andere ist (schon) hier.

Gentle and touching, the sadness that remains regardless of new happiness and comfort of migrants comes through (I grew up in an largely Italian new migrant community, you have the essential tale and feel for this.
...and for others coming in, a (machine=not very soulful) translation would be good (it's what I had to use)

This song is so hauntingly beautiful! It actually gave me goosebumps.
Keep writing songs. You're really good at it.
