Story Behind The Song
Samsara was bullied online. She channeled her frustration into a song about hope, faith, dreams and forgiveness.
Song Description
"Moments In Between" is a pop ballad with a piano accompaniment and a soft vocal delivery by Samsara. The song has a simple structure of verses, choruses, and a bridge. The verses describe Samsara's wish for happiness, peace, joy, and love for everyone, even those who hurt her. Using poetic language and imagery to convey her feelings and hopes, Samsara sings "I wish you laughter to light your dreams" and "It's not a feeling, more like a song".
The choruses repeat the main message of the song, that love is faith, hope, and dreams, and that it is all we need and it is in the moments in between. Using repetition and rhyme to make the message more memorable and catchy, Samsara sings "Love is faith and hope and dreams / I believe / Love is all we need".
The bridge adds some contrast by comparing life to a roller coaster ride and saying that if we put our trust in love, we will find everything we need and more. Samsara uses a metaphor to describe the ups and downs of life and how love can help us overcome them. She also uses anaphora to create a sense of urgency and conviction. For example, she says "But if you put your trust in love / You'll find everything you need and more".
The song ends with a repetition of the chorus and a final line that says "love is all we need". She sings this line with a gentle tone and a long note to create a sense of closure and resolution.
The hope is that by cultivating loving-kindness and wisdom, we can overcome her suffering and help others do the same.

Lyrics
I wish you happiness
I wish you peace
And all the joy your heart can ever seek
I wish you laughter
To light your dreams
So you can see your way to know what life should be
I hope you find the joy
You hope to find
With no regrets
For what you've left behind
Life isn't easy
It hurts sometimes
But every chance you take for love
Is worth the time
Love is faith and hope and dreams
I believe
Love is all we need
Love is in the moments in between
Give it time
We'll find the love we need
When you discover what fills your heart
That's when you'll know just who you really are
It's not a feeling
More like a song
And you can hear the whole world sing along
But if you ask me to tell you now
What you need to do
And how love is found
Well trust your feelings
Inside you know
How to open and let love grow
Love is faith and hope and dreams
I believe
Love is all we need
Love is in the moments in between
Give it time
We'll find the love we need
Life is like a roller coaster ride
You've felt those ups and downs before
But if you put your trust in love
You'll find everything you need and more
Love is faith and hope and dreams
I believe
Love is all we need
Love is in the moments in between
Give it time
Give it time
Love is faith and hopes and dreams
I believe
Love is all we need
Love is in the moments in between
Give it time
We'll find the love we need
Love is all we need
