Zahlé is known as the "Bride of the Beqaa" and "the Neighbor of the Gorge" due to its geographical location and attractiveness, but also as "the City of Wine and Poetry" It is famous throughout Lebanon and the region for its pleasant climate, numerous riverside restaurants and quality arak.

    Amazing

    by: Seal

    Everyone says you're amazing
    Say you don't know how to do it now, so you run
    It's not that you're bleeding
    But you're through with it now, so you run, so you run
    I know that you need it, you can't live alone
    So you run, so you run
    Everyone says you're amazing now that you're clean
    But only you know the real ones are 'cause you've seen
    There's only one question I want to ask is it here and
    When you hear everyone say you're amazing
    Does anyone ask you?
    Do you cry in your sleep and do you feel okay
    When you run?
    Thinking it's Doomsday you got to let it go
    So you run, so you run
    Pretend you don't see it, that we can live a lie
    When you run, so you run
    Everyone says you're amazing now that you're clean
    Only you know the real ones are 'cause you've seen
    There's only one question I want to ask is it here and
    When, when you hear everyone say you're amazing
    Does anyone ask you?
    'Cause I know that you're real
    Amazing, amazing, amazing
    Everyone says you're amazing now that you're clean
    Only you know the real ones are because you have seen
    There's only one question I want to ask is it here and
    When you hear, everyone says you're amazing
    Everyone says you're amazing
    (I want you to always feel you're amazing)
    Everyone says you're amazing
    (I want you to always feel you're amazing)
    I want you to always feel you're amazing
