Happy Ending – Mindy Braasch

Happy Ending - Mindy Braasch

Happy Ending – Mindy Braasch

Inspiration:

When I was a little girl, I loved fairytales! And as you know, most fairytales have the same basic storyline: the hero and the heroine meet, and there are conflicts, but in the end, they fall in love and live happily ever after. I wrote this song wondering about the possibility of love in reality being like the love in fairytales.

Lyrics:

In the story, there’s always a boy and a girl who fall in love
In the story, there’s always a happy ending
I don’t know, I wanna believe, but it’s hard sometimes, hard sometimes
In the story, their love is never pretending

Chorus:
Is this love real? Is it pretend?
Not sure how to feel, don’t know how it ends
I know it’s not a fairytale
Is this a happy ending, happy ending, yeah

In the story, they always do the right thing in the end
With me and you, I hope I don’t break or bend
All I can do is not be afraid, won’t let fear stop me now, fear stop me now
Won’t regret, don’t wanna learn to hate

Castles and princesses
Life isn’t always what they say it is
But somehow I believe there is much more that we could be
Take a chance and think about you and me oh

Chorus

Maybe someday my life will be that story
Maybe sometime love will work out for me
But I won’t sit here waiting for life to help me out, help me out, no
I’ll create my own ending

Chorus

Drop in the Ocean – Mindy Braasch

Drop in the Ocean - Mindy Braasch

Drop in the Ocean – Mindy Braasch

Inspiration:

There are a whole lot of people in this world, and I am only one out of the many. Sometimes it can feel like I’m just a tiny drop in a huge ocean. However, despite what other people may think, or say, I still believe that I can have a positive impact on other people’s lives.

Lyrics:

Sitting on a bus filled with people going who knows where
I’m just another face in the crowd heading somewhere
The sound of my voice cannot be heard over the crowd
I sing to myself, the only one who can hear the sound

Chorus:
I might be just another drop in the ocean
You might not know that I’m here
But I can make a difference, even if it’s unclear
You might not believe, but I don’t care
Oh yeah

Walking through a hall filled with people passing me by
They don’t know me, but then, neither do I
Life passes you in the blink of an eye
You gotta be careful, or you’ll lose your way and your mind

Chorus

Oh, this path I’m taking, I’ll follow it still
Gotta believe in myself or nobody will
Here a passion lies, see it in my eyes
Try and stop me now
You can’t take this, you can’t fake this
Passion in my heart

Chorus

Sitting on a bus filled with people going who knows where

Home – Mindy Braasch

Home - Mindy Braasch

Home – Mindy Braasch

Inspiration:

Home isn’t always a house; home can mean different things for different people. This song is about finally coming back to the place where you belong.

Lyrics:

I was so far away, by myself in an empty place
Wandering blind all alone
You reached out your hand to save me
But I wanted you to let me be
Thought I was fine on my own

Chorus:
But I’m coming home, coming home
I’m right where I belong
I’m home now, I’m home
You never realize what you’ve got ‘till it’s gone
I’m coming home, oh, home

I was lost but didn’t realize ‘till I couldn’t see the light
You asked me to come back on home
Spent forever trying to find true love
But all this time, there it was
You were longing for me when I was alone

Chorus

And though they’ll try to tear us apart
You’ve been with me from the start
There is nothing for me to fear

Chorus
