We spend our lives searching for happiness, serenity, and a sense of peace, looking for them in places that can never truly satisfy. The soul longs to reconnect with the Divine spark Hashem placed within us, and until that longing is answered, we remain unsettled, no matter how much we achieve. This song is a prayer to quiet the noise, touch the neshamah, and discover the only place where lasting contentment can be found.
I searched on the roads, in faraway cities. I searched in people, through doors that opened. And everything I found passed like wind, and I forgot that inside me there's a place to rest.
So close to me, so far away. So close to me, so far away.
To touch my soul, the spark You placed inside me, to fly above the world, to soar toward the light. To touch my soul, my whole being aches for it — Master of the world, let me touch it.
Behind all the noise, something hides deep down. The yetzer pulls downward, the world won't wait, and the soul inside me still whispers: fly.
To touch my soul, the spark You placed inside me, to fly above the world, to soar toward the light. To touch my soul, my whole being aches for it — Master of the world, let me touch it.
Open a gate inside my heart, remove the screen standing between me and myself. My whole soul longs, my whole heart pleads — Master of the world, let me come close.
Fly, soar, fly, soar — touch my soul.
To touch my soul, the spark You placed inside me, to fly above the world, to soar toward the light. To touch my soul, my whole being aches for it — Master of the world, let me touch it.
So close to me, so far away. To touch my soul.
