With three other well-received albums on her own Bathsheba Records label, Florian is the epitome of the hardworking indie artist, booking her own tours to Australia (where she appeared on the national music channel), the U.K., and Europe, as well as frequent trips to the U.S. Her enthusiasm and perseverance even landed her a coveted full-page feature in Billboard Magazine, which wrote, "Florian's career is heating up."
A three year hiatus from the music scene & the grind of touring has enabled Florian to recharge her musical batteries. She has written enough new songs for several more albums, including many works that revisit her first love... the piano.
Look out for a sampling of Andrea's new songs to be released this year. (digital only)

Broken Heart
Andrea Florian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
will recover
these open wounds of mine
well one day they shall heal and I shall recover
these broken dreams, my shaking knees
a cool cool breeze will take it all away
and this broken heart of mine will recover
well one day they shall see it all more clear than now
and the rain comes down to wash away all of my fears
And the moments will be remembered as moments
The days and the nights, the minutes and seconds
and all of this will become so little and I
I will recover
'Cause these broken arms of mine will find a way of reaching out again
And these broken words of mine
well one day they will all make sense
one day they will all make sense
And the way that I feel
and the memories that I keep
all lost in the things that I dream when I sleep
Well I know not the time and I know not the way
But I, I will recover
This broken heart of mine
will be strong again
And in an littel while
I'll stand on my own two feet again
And I know it takes time
so I'll try to be patient
but I wait on the day that I know I can say
This broken heart of mine has recovered
'Cause these broken arms of mine will find a way of reaching out again
And these broken words of mine
well one day they will all make sense
one day they will all make sense
And the way that I feel
and the memories that I keep
all lost in the things that I dream when I sleep
Well I know not the time and I know not the way
But I, I will recover
This broken heart of mine
will recover
these open wounds of mine
well one day they shall heal and I shall recover
these broken dreams, my shaking knees
a cool cool breeze will take it all away
and this broken heart of mine will recover
I will recover
