Peer Tasi - What Tomorrow Will Bring

It's not exactly a joyous new year. Yesterday afternoon right before heading out to the family Rosh Hashana dinner news broke that eight IDF soldiers had died in battle in Lebanon while fighting Hezbollah operatives and later in the evening we learned more about the victims who were murdered in Tuesday's terror attack at a light rail station in Jaffa. Of course, the main topic of conversation at the dinner was Iran's heavy missile attack and where it had caught us. I was at my mom's place and when the sirens began we headed with our two dogs to the stairs, trying to calm them down. They had gotten used to a siren here and there but could sense that this was clearly different. I bumped into a neighbor I always chat with and we settled into our usual small talk as if we were just waiting for the elevator and not taking cover from missiles. "They better not start with this again tomorrow, I have so much cooking to do!" she said, and at that moment I felt that things were going to be okay. As Peer Tasi sings, who knows what tomorrow will bring, we can only hope for the best and take comfort in being with our loved ones. Here's to a much better year ahead. ♥

Don't be afraid to just jump into the water

And keep one close friend

And wherever you go I'll call it home

So I live on almost every street

Don't just try to hide the longing

It will eat us from the inside

Minute by minute and then week by week

It comes when you're not waiting

I would take everything to my lungs

In the middle of the night, I'm in the lights

I just wanted to hug you

Because who knows what tomorrow will bring

I would walk even barefoot on thorns

Find you among millions of people

I just wanted to hug you

Because who knows what tomorrow will bring

To learn to fly like a bird in the sky

And to see beyond the picture

To ride on the imagination like a bicycle

To feel like for the first time

Maybe I look a bit tough on the outside

It passes slowly with the years

Minute by minute and then week by week

It comes when you're not waiting

I would take everything to my lungs

In the middle of the night, I'm in the lights

I just wanted to hug you

Because who knows what tomorrow will bring

I would walk even barefoot on thorns

Find you among millions of people

I just wanted to hug you

Because who knows what tomorrow will bring
