Lyrics for our original songs

I'M LETTING GO

Couldn’t sleep

Caught me thinking of you again 

What it's like when you lose a friend

You thought would always be there


Lost my way

Trying to find what we left behind

Trying to find me some peace of mind

Since the day you disappeared


You were a part of my heart, I held on tight

I'm not holding on anymore

Growing brighter each day,

Finding my way with love and laughter

The Sun's starting to show, it's time to grow

Letting go, I’m letting go


Fooled myself

Pretended that we weren’t thru

Never wanted to face the truth

Told myself so many lies


I hung on

Stuck around you for far too long

Watched your back as you shut the door

While I just shut my eyes


You were a part of my heart, I held on tight

I'm not holding on anymore

Growing brighter each day,

Finding my way with love and laughter

The Sun's starting to show, it's time to grow

I’m letting go, Yes, I’m letting go


I remember the laughter

All the times we spent together

I'm tired of fighting

For what we once knew


You were a part of my heart, I held on tight

I'm not holding on anymore

Growing brighter each day,

Finding my way with love and laughter

The Sun's starting to show, it's time to grow

I’m letting go (with love and laughter, whoa...)

I’m letting, I'm letting

I'm letting go

Letting go

With love and laughter

I'm letting go

THROUGH IT

The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, and you know you can do it,

The only way through it, is through it.


There’s been times in my life, I was lost

There’s been times in my life, I was found

There’s been times in my life, I didn’t know how

To make another sound


Sometimes it feels like, moving backwards

Sometimes it feels like, you will drown

When will I learn to swim these waters

These waves are crashing all around


The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, and you know you can do it,

The only way through it, is through it.


When I was looking for, a shoulder to cry on

When I was looking for a friend, to be there

When I was needing someone else to rely on

Finding there was nobody near


Sometimes it feels like, moving backwards

Sometimes it feels like, you will drown

When will I learn to swim these waters

These waves are crashing all around


The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, and you know you can do it,

The only way through it, is through it.


The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, and you know you can do it,

The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, is through it.

The only way through it, is through it.

VOICES IN THE DARK

These voices in the dark

Say I’m not worthy or deserving

These voices in the dark

Taunt me with their hurtful ways

These voices in the dark

Repeating what I fear most

These voices in the dark

Say I will never be the one


When the lights go out, I hear you

When the lights go out the comparisons start

My mind gets filled with thoughts I can’t control

As the outside world recedes


Now I’ve made my list and I’ve checked it twice

I’ve counted every last breathe I’ve taken

Did I do this wrong, did I get that right

Will I find the strength I’m needing


These voices in the dark

Say I’m not worthy or deserving

These voices in the dark

Taunt me with their hurtful ways

These voices in the dark

Repeating what I fear most

These voices in the dark

Say I will never be the one


The wickedness I’ve witnessed

Find it’s target like a dart

The words become my own now

As they pierce my broken heart

As they pierce my broken heart


These voices in the dark

Say I’m not worthy or deserving

These voices in the dark

Taunt me with their hurtful ways

These voices in the dark

Repeating what I fear most

These voices in the dark

Say I will never be the one


These voices in the dark

I’m not worthy or deserving

These voices in the dark

Oh they taunt me with their hurtful ways

These voices in the dark

Repeating what I fear most

These voices in the dark, say I will never

Never be the one

Never be the one

Never be the one

REFLECTIONS

The phone call came this morning

Now I climb the attic stairs

In search of old reminders

In search of souvenirs

I wonder what is left there of

Seasons long departed

Stashed away until this moment

When my heart was left unguarded

My heart was left unguarded


Reflections of who you were

Of who you dreamt to be

Reflections in my heart

Flowing back as memories

Reflections when I look back

At the life that we once knew

Reflections never showing

What was true


My knees could not support me

When she told me of the news

The struggles you were hiding

She said that no one knew

Now I find myself once more

With those letters in my hand

As the tears flow down my face

As I try to understand


Reflections of who you were

Of who you dreamt to be

Reflections in my heart

Flowing back as memories

Reflections when I look back

At the life that we once knew

Reflections never showing

What was true


Keepsakes I collected

(There's no easy way to tell you)

Stories from our youth

(what he did to end his pain)

Faded, torn and tattered

Leave me drowning in thoughts of you


Reflections of who you were

Of who you dreamt to be

Reflections in my heart

Flowing back as memories

Reflections when I look back

At the life that we once knew

Reflections never showing

What was true

Reflections never showing

What was true

A CRACK IN THE WALL

I can see, the crack beginning

Though I never said the words

Two hearts that were connected

Now the seams are getting blurred


I wonder if you see it

Though I’m guessing that you can’t

Now the picture's losing focus

And you'll never get the chance


How, could I ever, find a man like you

Why, would I want to, start with someone new

Loving you, hurt me, tore me into little pieces

Why do I stay here, I can not recall the reasons

Anymore, Anymore


We talked and talked for hours

Never getting anywhere

Realizing what the truth was

Love we never could repair


How, could I ever, find a man like you

Why, would I want to, start with someone new

Loving you, hurt me, tore me into little pieces

Why do I stay here, I can not recall the reasons

Anymore, Anymore


We danced around the wreckage

As we spun out of control

Round this wall that held us both in

And the fault began to grow


How, could I ever, find a man like you

Why, would I want to, start with someone new

Loving you, hurt me, tore me into little pieces

Why do I stay here, I can not recall the reasons

Anymore, Anymore

Anymore, Anymore


I can see the crack beginning

Though I never said the words

A CHRISTMAS MOON

Three thousand miles away

Yet I felt it every day

Your breath flowed out my body

Your heart beat through my veins

And your presence, overwhelmed me


So many days we walked together

So many nights we had to hide

Those memories flowed through me

As I slowly walked outside

And your presence, overwhelmed me, once again


That Christmas moon burned strong

As the stars they danced along

The darkness held me close just like a lover


Submerged in time and drowning

I thought of you that night

So very far away,

Yet burning in that same moonlight

And your presence, overwhelmed me


All those letters that were written

Are they stashed inside some drawer

A mirror of two lovers

Forever wanting more

And your presence, overwhelmed me, once again


That Christmas moon burned strong

As the stars they danced along

The darkness held me close just like a lover


Why do I long for what was never mine

Why do I yearn to feel your body

Why do I ache for a love I’ll never own

I don't know how to stop me

(I don’t know how to stop me)

No I don’t know how to stop me

(I don’t know how to stop me)


And that Christmas moon burned strong

As the stars they danced along

The darkness held me close just like a lover

Just like a lover

Just like a lover

And the darkness held me close just like a lover

BECOMING A FAMILY

Sitting here and thinking ‘bout, these years we’ve spent together

What a blessing you have brought into my life

I thought I’d nearly lost you, watched you slowly fall to pieces

Til with time and work your laughter came alive


But it wasn’t only your life, that you changed as time went by

I’ve been standing right beside you everyday

We have worked so hard, We have learned so much

How to talk, How to trust, You and me

Starting our life together, Becoming a family


Opening our hearts, was just the start of what we needed

As we slowly figured out just what to say

I’ve watched your world expanding, Seen the sorrow disappearing

As our home filled up with laughter and love


But it wasn’t only your life, that you changed as time went by

I’ve been standing right beside you everyday

We have worked so hard, We have learned so much

How to talk, How to trust, You and me

Starting our life together, Tell me what you see

What a life we’ve built together, Loving our family

ANGELS

Do you remember, how you dreamed them

Living high up in the clouds

Drifting down to guard us children

All that heaven would allow


Glancing round now my spirits different

I see angels all anew

Exotic lines and curves so supple

Heavens changed a little too


Am I too old, for angels

Am I too old, to watch them fly

Am I too old, for angels

Will I see them if I try


Have I learned, to show my daughter

Who she is, can never be wrong

Can I share with her, these new angels

Can I share with her my song


Am I too old, for angels

Am I too old, to watch them fly

Am I too old, for angels

Will I see them if I try


Shall she gaze upon the woman

That her mother hides inside

Will it change her life to know this

Part of me I always hide


Am I too old, for angels

Am I too old, to watch them fly

Am I too old, for angels

Will I see them if I try


Am I too old, for angels

Breaking free oh I feel them fly

Flying now, with angels

Taking me for one more ride

Taking me for one more ride

WHAT I WISH FOR US

Through this mirror, I can see you,

In the room, right down the hall

Reflecting, the love I’m feeling

As the mirror, frames it all

You didn’t notice, as I came towards you

Headphones on, guitar in hand

The music growing, the rhythm beating

And I thank god, that you’re my man


This is what I wish for us

My prayer said in the morning

This is what I wish for us

As I'm opening my eyes

Let life be healthy,

Let us grow old with love and laughter

Let life be happy

To find the dreams we thought were lost

Let life be plenty

And share time with those who love us

All this and more, is what I wish for us


Your cheek, feels warm, beneath my fingers

A smile that starts, from deep inside

My heart, lets go into that moment

Where trust, and fear collide


This is what I wish for us

My prayer said in the daylight

This is what I wish for us

As I'm reaching for your hand

Let life be healthy,

Let us grow old with love and laughter

Let life be happy

To find the dreams we thought were lost

Let life be plenty

And share time with those who love us

All this and more, is what I wish for us


This is what I wish for us

My prayer said in the evening

This is what I wish for us

As I’m drifting off to sleep

Let life be healthy,

Let us grow old with love and laughter

Let life be happy

To find the dreams we thought were lost

Let life be plenty

And share time with those who love us

All this and more, is what I wish for us

All this and more, is what I

I wish for us

TONIGHT I WANNA SIT HERE ON MY OWN

Close the door, I need time to repair me

Home alone, I can just let go

I’m so tired, so drained and empty

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own

Tonight I’m on my own


The night has played out, the moonlight is fading

Laughter’s echoes ring soft in my ears

No smiles needed, got nothing to say now

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own


Does it make a difference if I don't have the answers

Does it make a difference if I shut out the world

Does it make a difference if I bury it, deny it, hide it

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own


Shoes discarded dirty clothes on the carpet

Please don’t ask, cause I’ve got nothing to give

It’s just the sounds of my own breathing

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own


Does it make a difference if I don't have the answers

Does it make a difference if I shut out the world

Does it make a difference if I bury it, deny it, hide it

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own

Tonight I wanna sit here on my own

Tomorrow, I'll be ready to face the dawn

But, tonight I wanna sit here on my own

Woo woo woo woo, oh on my own

CAMPFIRE NIGHT

A campfire night, like ones long passed, like ones still yet unknown

It brought me back, as songs can do, to timeless nights long gone

So close your eyes, and drift away, a smile upon your face

That same guitar, that same soft glow, and voices interlaced


The hopes were all brand new those days, the aches much more skin deep

With firelight and melodies, a beautiful release

So give yourself into the night, into another dream

For firelight and melodies, are more than what they seem


I’ll listen to the tale you tell, and hope for still one more

Don’t end this night, by firelight, It’s what we’ve come here for

A friend to share this nighttime with, another one to see

That times we’ve grown, and times we’ve known, give way to memories


The hopes were all brand new those days, the aches much more skin deep

With firelight and melodies, a beautiful release

So give yourself into the night, into another dream

For firelight and melodies, are more than what they seem

It's more than what they seem


A campfire night, like ones long passed, like ones still yet to come

It brought me back, as songs can do, to timeless nights long gone

So close your eyes, and drift away, but pull today along

For firelight, and timeless nights, add life to one more song


The hopes were all brand new those days, the aches much more skin deep

With firelight and melodies, a beautiful release

So give yourself into the night, into another dream

For firelight and melodies, are more than what they seem

For firelight and melodies, are more than what they seem

CONTRADICTION

I am a contradiction, I’m arrogant and sure

Immodest and seductive, I’m humble and demure

I’m starry eyed and cheerful, a friend to all I see

Disheartened, disillusioned, awash in misery


I’m starry eyed and cheerful. Watch me now as I move on

Will you follow where I lead you

Will this sadness soon be gone

Will you follow where I lead you

Will this sadness soon be gone


I see you, will I let you know I noticed

I reach you, as the walls come tumbling down

What I feel, and what, I show you

Collided when, you said my name


I’ll boldly walk into your life, assertive through and through

And cautiously I’ll watch you, as you move across the room

I am a contradiction, dominant and strong

I’ll submit without resistance, If you’ll only play along


Out of ammo and courageous. Never flinching as I go

Too shocked and scared to move on

From that very first hello

Too shocked and scared to move on

From that very first hello


I see you, will I let you know I noticed

I reach you, as the walls come tumbling down

What I feel, and what, I show you

Collided when, you said my name


Do you really want to meet me

Take me home and lay me down

Will I scratch your back and bite you

Will I come without a sound

Will I scratch your back and bite you

Will I come without a sound

WHEN APRIL COMES NEXT YEAR

Every year, I believe

Maybe I should go away

Leave him alone, to grieve on his own

Let the healing begin without me near

But I stay


When April comes next year, I'll be ready

When April comes next year, I won't be walkin' out the door

He grows stronger every year, drowning less in waves of tears

We’re in this, together, When April comes next year

Yeah, We’re in this, together, When April comes next year


A spark inside, his heart had died

When she took her life that day

Emotions flood above him, all I can do is love him

And be a guiding hand along the way

So I stay


When April comes next year, I'll be ready

When April comes next year, I won't be walkin' out the door

He grows stronger every year, drowning less in waves of tears

We’re in this, together, When April comes next year

Yeah, We’re in this, together, When April comes next year


And I don't understand, why you act the way you do

Your temper starts, it catches me off-guard

It comes as a surprise, until I realize

It's April again


When April comes next year, I'll be ready

When April comes next year, You won't find me walkin' out the door

He grows stronger every year, drowning less in waves of tears

Oh we’re in this, together, When April comes next year

Yeah we’re in this, together, When April comes next year

I'M NOT HERE TO SAVE YOU

When the weight has got too heavy

And your tears are pouring down

You can call me anytime girl, I’ll be there


When you feel the highway calling

And that itch to run away

Put those car keys on the table, I’ll be there


You make me proud, watching you growing

You make me smile, watching you try

You make me cry, knowing your struggles

Wishing my love, could ease your pain


But I’m not here to save you, I’m not the one who can

I’m just a hand to hold, a loving smile

Cause I’m not here to save you, I’m not the one who can

My strength can only shield you for awhile


I can listen to your fears girl

I can listen to your dreams

But the one who makes it happen, it’s only you


You make me proud, watching you growing

You make me smile, watching you try

You make me cry, knowing your struggles

Wishing my love, could ease your pain


But I’m not here to save you, I’m not the one who can

I’m just a hand to hold, a loving smile

Cause I’m not here to save you, I’m not the one who can

My strength can only shield you for awhile


Cause I’m not here to save you

Cause I’m not here to save you

Cause I’m not here to save you

Cause I’m not here to save you

Cause I’m not here to save you, I’m not the one who can

I know you might feel like you're on your own

But you're not alone
