YOLO copyright 2017
Takin a chance, makin a change, life’s little choices
I've always been scared to try something new, but you only live once damn its so true
I’m not sayin that I’m scared no more
I’m ready to open every new door
Open the blinds, let the light shine
Livin for joy inside my heart
Takin a risk, bein so brave
You only live once, don’t be afraid
Singin’ woah, woah
Ready to live, ready to laugh, Go on & try it
So much more fun, when its all done, life is so short, so love it!
I’m not sayin that I’m scared no more
I’m ready to open every new door
Open the blinds, let the light shine
Livin for joy inside my heart
Takin a risk, bein so brave
You only live once, don’t be afraid
Singin’ woah, woah
If something makes you squirm, Go give it a whirl
You’ll be surprised how freeing it feels,
You’re ready to take on the world!
I’m not sayin that I’m scared no more
I’m ready to open every new door
Open the blinds, let the light shine
Livin for joy inside my heart
Takin a risk, bein so brave
You only live once, don’t be afraid
Singin’ woah, woah
By My Side
Stay just a little while longer
Stay just a little while longer
Oooo, oooo
Come just a little bit closer
Come just a little bit closer
Oooo, oooo
The time is right lets not waste the night
Baby put your arms around me I am safe when you are by my side
Love will set us free, its just you and me
I’m so glad you’re here with me there’s nowhere else that I would rather be
Can’t you see so won’t you
Come just a little bit closer
Come just a little bit closer
Oooo, oooo
The time is right lets not waste the night
Baby put your arms around me I am safe when you are by my side
Love will set us free, its just you and me
I’m so glad you’re here with me there’s nowhere else that I would rather be
Can’t you see so won’t you
Stay just a little while longer
Stay just a little while longer
Oooo, oooo
Sun on my Skin
Drivin’ with the windows down, sun on my skin
Grateful for the warmth all around
Sweetness of the day fills my senses
The whole earth is bursting with life
Do you see all the beauty?
Smell the fragrance in the air?
Hear the music in the branches?
What else more could we ask for?
Drivin’ with the windows down, sun on my skin
Grateful for the warmth all around
Sweetness of the day fills my senses
The whole earth is bursting with life
Do you see all the beauty?
Smell the fragrance in the air?
Hear the music in the branches?
What else more could we ask for?
Crying Out For Love
So much confusion, so much fear
So much anger, billions of tears
The world is crying, crying out for love
And I feel the call in my heart
To be light amidst the dark
Cause the lower they go
The higher we will rise
I believe in the goodness in each of you
I believe in our power to speak the truth
And if we love each other like sisters & brothers
We’ll be the change we wish to see
And I feel the call in my heart
To be light amidst the dark
Cause the world will keep on spinning
But love will conquer all
This songs my prayer to the world, its what I can do
My heart is crying out to each of you
If you feel the call in your heart
To be light amidst the dark
There’s no time to waste, now is the time
Our time to Rise.
Never Long Enough copyright 2017
You just pulled out the driveway and already I’m missing you
Walking through the rooms now searching for remnants of you
Cause its never quite enough
No its never long enough
When a part of your heart & soul isn’t here
The void is so clear, the void is so near
I hate this part when you leave us, missing you never goes away
Hoping & praying one day soon we’ll be together again
Cause its never quite enough
No its never long enough
When a part of your heart & soul isn’t here
The void is so clear, the void is so near
Ooo, missin you, missing you...
When you’re back we’ll pick up with our loving & our fun
Cause tho our branches grow in different directions, our roots remain as one
But its never quite enough
No its never long enough
When a part of your heart & soul isn’t here
The void is so clear, the void is so near
Take a Chance copyright 2017
Standing at the edge of everything I know
My defensive walls start to fall
I was made a fool played like a toy
But I’ll be damned if that steals my joy
Risking it all, risking it all
For the chance to fall
I am brave enough to trust again
Open up my heart to love, take a chance
I survived deceit and still I am here
I refuse to live my life in fear
Risking it all, risking it all
For the chance to fall
Wake up and try
Do not hide your love
You only win
When you give your love
Some Men Need To Hear This copyright 2017
Just cause I big a good a hug, that don’t mean we’re in love
Just cause I give you a smile & we talk for a while
We may share a good laugh, you’re ready to make a pass
But don’t do it
Cause it don’t mean a thing & I don’t pretend to know what you think
but from experience some men need to hear this
You think we might have this vibe, but I’m warning you don’t even try
You’re staring deeply at me, take it easy boy can’t you see
I spread my love all around, but I won’t be tied down
I’ve learned my lesson
Cause it don’t mean a thing & I don’t pretend to know what you think
But from experience some men need to hear this
Just cause I big a good a hug, that don’t mean we’re in love
Just cause I give you a smile & we talk for a while
The Fringe copyright 2017
I’m closing the door now its time for me to go now
You used me and abused me so now you will lose me
Cause I gave this 3 years and I got no more tears left for
You took my love but you had nothing to give so I’m closing the book of our love now
You left me with a broken heart, but I’m the one to blame
I gave you everything I had, its such a cryin shame
Now I’ll never be the same, you know what I mean
You kept me on the fringe
When I had so much to give
You kept me on the fringe
But I got so much life to live
So Bye Bye
I’m closing the door now its time for me to go now
You used me and abused me so now you will lose me
Cause I gave this 3 years and I got no more tears left for
You took my love but you had nothing to give so I’m closing the book of our love now
You left me with a broken heart, but I’m the one to blame
I gave you everything I had, its such a cryin shame
Now I’ll never be the same, you know what I mean
You kept me on the fringe
When I had so much to give
You kept me on the fringe
But I got so much life to live
So Bye Bye, bye bye
You skinny old bugger bye bye
Lyin', cheatin' bye bye
Good for nothin, bye bye
BYE BYE!!
Let the door hit you on the way out
I Will Rise copyright 2017
All the layers of doubt, my soul always knew
But I was blinded by love and compassion for you
You always said the right things, to keep me hangin on
You played a selfish game, my open heart was your pawn
And I was naïve, to believe
All you did was deceive
And you were just pretending
You’ll have to answer one day, I heard that when I prayed
God have mercy on your soul, when its time for you to go
And I was naïve, to believe
All you did was deceive
And you were just pretending
And I will rise and be stronger than before
And my heart will open once more
And all the lies, your selfish lies
And all the ways you made me cry
I forgive, so I might live
And I will rise and be stronger than before
And my heart will open once more
And now I finally see, the truth set me free
And I am not pretending, I am not pretending
I forgive, so I might live
I am free, I believe
I forgive, so I live
I forgive, I forgive
Now I live
