I wanted to have an uplifting 70th birthday (getting older is not always a happy event). I received an invite to compete in an over-40 beauty contest to benefit National Breast Cancer Foundation, so I took a chance and entered: https://votefab40.com/2024/debra-cohen-2
I placed in the semi-finals, and made it to the Top 5, but started feeling uneasy about it and dropped out. Then, all of the introspective questions entered my mind, and I wrote down my questions as lyrics to this song.

Lyrics
What if I hear the voice tell me where I should go
Even though its not clear
I really want to know what You are saying
Is Your voice blocked by my fear
//:Ahhhhhhhh …. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh (repeat)
I see your mistral movements in my eyes
But I can’t really hear You.
What did the Beatle Paul mean when he said Let it Be
Should I just wait for answers until they come to me
(Come to me)
What if I did this instead of that
Looking back at where I’ve traveled (I hope I don’t ask that)
As if I haven’t lived my life to the fullest
And should have done much more
This life will test you, we’re meant to struggle
By asking which way to go, (which Door?)
Why did the Clash ask me if I should stay or should go
Turn up the volume just to feel the shivers and let my feet follow
The music I can feel is all that matters
It takes me where I should go
Follow Follow Follow Follow
What if I try to find You lost in nature’s
Beauty before my eyes
I see and smell the greatness of this world
But not where the answers lie
Maybe if I am still a whole lot longer
I’ll hear that still small voice
Telling me what I’ve been looking for
But still, it’s about my choice.
But sounds are coming so much nearer
I don’t think I can listen on my own
Yet I know answers are in the music
It cannot be foreknown:
