Shirly Kones - It's good that you came



A beautiful glimpse into Shirly Kones' Tel Aviv

Even if occasionally during the week
He meets the reflection of my face
In her good, good eyes
Of our love, the one,
It's good that you came

It's he who built a house with you
And will give you the child
It's good, it's what you want
Only now that you're not home,
It's good that you came

She knows to offer me
Everything that there isn't
And I, I take to heart
Tel Aviv is worn out, made of patchwork
The people,
Are well dressed

The city, it holds a secret
Its walls are, the beach and concrete,
A walk along the neon-lit moon
The last glimpse, who shall I give it to?

Lately, I've been falling in love easily
And it's not the only addiction
My body is thirsty, I admit
And my water flows in her hand

She knows to offer me
Everything that there isn't
And I, I take to heart
Tel Aviv is worn out, made of patchwork
The people.
Are dressed well

It's time to get closer

Assaf Averbuch and the Rumor - Watch for Surprises



It doesn't get much sweeter than this.

https://he-il.facebook.com/assafaverbuchpage

Watch for surprises,
Because the statistics say that by now
You were supposed to die at least 3 times
Watch for surprises,
According to the couple rate you were supposed to already find a wife,
Rent an apartment and raise in it two and a half kids

And you can't run away
But you no longer have the energy to lie
From so many lies you forgot who you are
And you can't determine
But you're tired of hearing
How much longer you will wait
For things to be good

Watch for surprises,
Run with your face towards the wind
Because you already played it safe
And this isn't your day
Watch for surprises,
Because you can't determine
But you're tired of hearing
That it will work out in the end

Watch for surprises,
According to the birth rate
In a few more years
The population will be exploded
Watch for surprises,
A world filled with people
But you still believe
That there is one person
Who is meant just for you

And you can't run away
But you no longer have the energy to lie
From so many lies you forgot who you are
And you can't determine
But you're tired of hearing
How much longer you will wait
For things to be good

Watch for surprises,
Run with your face towards the wind
Because you already played it safe
And this isn't your day
Watch for surprises,
Because you can't determine
But you're tired of hearing
That it will work out in the end

Watch for surprises,
Because what are the chances
That with a guitar and songs
You'll be able one day
To conquer the world
Watch for surprises,
If you're preoccupied with the results
You'll miss the way
And this journey of yours,
Is everyone's

Haya Miller - A Rumor



Nostalgia in the making.


Now you don't want to be there
But if you won't sleep with her someone will sleep
A time comes to get rid of guilty feelings
From all this love which raises smoke

It's not good when you change your face
Asleep when I arrive and awake for others
On the verge, already inside without intention
Everyone else went to bed only you are sleepwalking
Infinite comfort in the darkness
For whoever is naked and is covered by her like a blanket
Just a rumor that is spread around town

Now you don't want to be there
But if you won't sleep with her someone will sleep
A time comes to change the prescription
And divide all that remains from what's old

From here it's not enough to complain
You need to quit and the habit stops
Only the eyes of the beholder
Make it seem so funny

It's not good when you change color
Pale when I arrive and flushed to others
Infinite comfort in the darkness
For whoever is naked and is covered by her like a blanket
Light will completely flood the room
And the body to the shore which he's swept after to

Just a rumor that is spread around town
Just a rumor that is spread around town
Just a rumor that is spread around town
Just a rumor that is spread around

Shaul Gros - Disappearing Horizon



From one heart to another.


This is the boat I will use to reach to the edge of the sea
A bench on which you can sit with the little child
The oars are like hands, taking me there,
To the place on the edge of the sea.
Who is driving, who is on foot- they are the ones going
And the stars in the sky, like a roadmap
The people I will never see again-I said goodbye to them all,
See you later on the edge of the sea.
I am rowing with all my strength
In crises, I am swept
And sometimes to be happy
I drink a stiff drink
And sing songs from long ago
Which came from somewhere
From some disappearing horizon
At the edge of the sea.
The books I read taught me how to think
And the songs that I heard taught me how to love
And then you came, you brought with you the child from somewhere
From the place at the edge of the sea.
This is the apartment with which we will return, I built you a doorstep
A bench on which you can sit with the little child
And the waves will be hands
Come and we will drift with them
To the place at the edge of the sea.
I am rowing with all my strength...
