Fire

Fire is supposed to take you higher
Fire can burn your soul
but if you don't listen to the choir
the choir will turn to stone
Fire is supposed to take you higher
Fire can burn your soul
but if you don't listen to the choir
the choir will turn to stone
dododododododo....
Fire and rain, to drown the growing pain
Anger and tears, to drown the burning fear
Fire is supposed to take you higher
Fire can burn your soul
but if you don't listen to the choir
the choir will turn to stone

Backbone
04:45

Whenever I feel confused
Pep talks are of no use
I know your love surrounds me
Whenever I’m feeling lost
And the price is not worth the cost
I know your love surrounds me
And I’m not alone, I’m not alone
You are my backbone, you are my home
And I shall not wander away from thunder
You are my rescue when I go under
Whenever I’m feeling scared
To go places I never dared to go
I know your love surrounds me
Whenever I’m feeling restless
And not always act my bestest
I know your love surrounds me
And I’m not alone, I’m not alone
You are my backbone, you are my home
And I shall not wander away from thunder
You are my rescue when I go under
And you, you, and you, you
And you, you
You’re my shelter from the storm
The fire that keeps me warm
And I’m not alone, I’m not alone
You are my backbone, you are my home
And I shall not wander away from thunder
You are my rescue when I go under

Used To Be

Used To Be
Things are not the same way that they used to be
We’re busy running around that is you and I baby
I wanna go stroll underneath the night sky
Watch the clouds as they swing by
Stay up late and talk about life
Like we used to do in another time
Things are not the same now that we’ve grown into our own
We built a home from nothing, built a life stone by stone
And I wanna take time to make time, to sit under the sunshine
And feel your heart against mine, feel your heart against mine
Ooooooooooooo
I think about the days sometimes when I first saw your face
And thought you were the cutest one with the mysterious gaze
But never thought that day would be the first day of the rest of my life
With you
Things are not the same way that they used to be
But we will be fine babe
You and me

Heartbeat
04:09
|

Days are getting longer life is speeding up
Sometimes it goes too fast
Sometimes it goes too fast
And I don’t’ wanna waste a second
Not a moment, just a moment
Going on the wrong lane
Oh that would be a pain
I’ll be traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
be traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
Traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
Ooooo, oooooo, oooooo
Looking at the yard where we used to roll around
All covered in soil, getting our clothing all spoiled
And we’d gather all the socks from around the house
So we could start a war, and get to play some more
Build a crooked castle out of blankets and broken old chairs
Setting up the mattress to slide down the living room stairs
Tandem riding our little yellow bike on a two way street
Traveling at the speed of our own heartbeats
Ooooooooo
Days are getting longer life is speeding up
Sometimes it goes too fast
Sometimes it goes too fast
Traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
Traveling at the speed of my own heartbeat
Ooooo, oooooo, oooooo

I Wonder How
02:33
|
|||
Surely I cannot imagine, what you must think of me now
Buried here beneath the rubble, all this unexpected trouble how
I wonder how…will we find it in our hearts
To forgive the misregards and doubts?
It’s not the change that we expected
Nor something we protected for
Nobody prepared the plate
oh how could we have known what to wait for
Now we find ourselves at loss, in the midst of this great toss
and how, I wonder how?
If I don’t even know within me
What it is that is still hindering me
from loving you like I do.
Buried here beneath the rubble, all this unexpected trouble how
I wonder how…will we find it in our hearts
To forgive the misregards and doubts?

Shed Their Fear
03:02
|
|||
As I walk above the pavement, I can feel you walking with me carrying me
And I hear above the silence all these voices screaming loudly at my ear
Shed their fear
Shed their fear on me
Living in a world of lies is not amongst the holy sites I site from here
Grant me strength to dissipate the dark that haunts and pierces deeply like a spear
Shed their fear
Shed their fear on me
As I walk above the pavement, I can feel you walking with me carrying me
And I hear above the silence all these voices screaming loudly at my ear

Tea For Two

Tea for Two
When our days of youth have passed us by
All the kids and grandkids began to fly
Once again it will be you and me
Sitting barefoot beneath the shade of a summer tree
Chorus
And we’ll laugh at our wrinkly toes
our gray hair and my crooked nose
You’ll look at me and I will look to you
and we’ll make tea for two
And in the winter when it’s gray and cold
You’ll tell me stories as the day unfolds
And in the evenings I will sing to you
And we’ll make tea for two
Na na na, na na na na, na na na
When our sheer good looks begin to fade
Wrinkled eyes, fake teeth are here to stay
Everyone around will think we’re old
But to me you’ll always be the one
I love with all of my soul
Chorus
And we’ll take walks along the Persian rug
We’ll cuddle closely really warm and snung
You’ll look at me and I will look to you
And we’ll make tea for two
And in the winter when it’s gray and cold
You’ll tell me stories as the day unfolds
And in the evenings I will sing to you
And we’ll make tea for two

Home To Me
03:05
|

So happy to have you here I’m so glad you made it
So happy to hold you near I’m so glad you made it
Could have taken too many moons but it happened soon
And yes you finally made it home to me
Ooooo
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
So happy to see your face I’m so glad you made it
So happy to see you smile I’m so glad you made it
Could have taken far too long I wished it all along
That you would make it home to me
Ooooo
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
Counting down the days I was
Wishing time would pass
Counting down the days I was
So glad it happened fast
Could have taken boats and planes
Taken cars and trains
But you finally made it
Could have taken far too long I wished it all along
That you would make it home to me
Oooooo
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
Home to me
Home to me

Wake up happy cause you’re lying by my side
And I know that everything, everything will be alright
And I know that everything, everything will be alright
And I know that everything, everything will be alright
Little things show me how you feel
All the little things you do let me know your love is real
All the little things you do let me know your love is real
All the little things you do let me know your love is real
And I can’t hide a love this true
Love so strong and binding, love that feels like new
Everyday with you
I wake up happy cause you’re lying by my side
And I know that everything, everything will be alright
And I know that everything, everything will be alright
And I know that everything, everything will be alright
And I know that everything, everything will be alright

The Night
04:05
|
|||
The mood of the night surrounds me
And I no longer fear the night
At last I am sleeping soundly
Guided by the light of your might, of your might
The moon in the sky so brightly
Shines through my window pane
How peaceful and gentle is your sweet embrace
And all of the fears that I hold on to so dearly
Slowly begin to fade
Because I know that the sound of your voice is around
Guiding my way
Far from the city noises
I dive into my own dream land
Where sweetly my heart rejoices
In the peaceful and gentle waters of your love
Of your love, of your love, of your love

Will They Forget
04:16
|
|||
Sometimes it overcomes me
And I just feel so clumsy
Drowning in the waves
And the currents overriding me
And the feeling is so daunting
It makes me feel so lonely
I try to keep my cool
But loose my power like a fool
And the color of the water as it flows
And the lovely smell of spring as winter goes
And these tiny specs of light in the dark night above my head
And this pile of dusty leaves as my warm bed
Will they forget?
Will they forget?
Will they forget?
Will they forget?
ooooooooo
Come on I hear them calling
The sand is quickly falling
The ticking of the clock
Is about to stop
And in my heart a whisper
Tells me not to resist her
Tells me to fall in love
To lose myself in love
And the color of the water as it flows
And the lovely smell of spring as winter goes
And these tiny specs of light in the dark night above my head
And this pile of dusty leaves as my warm bed
Will they forget?
Will they forget?
Will they forget?
Will they forget?
ooooooooo
