Once you held my eyes, I held my breath
And all was still and
I knew that until you said you loved me
Nothing in the world could break the spell that you had cast
And yet it couldn’t last another day
So now when you are far
Still I hear your call
But there are only walls
I can’t find the door that opens to you
You have taken half my heartbeat left behind a sigh, I
Sink into this bittersweet goodbye
Once you held your heart wide open
Courage in the wounds and
How I longed to sooth that sweet confusion
Nothing in the world could solve this reckless situation
Nothing for us but to bless the day
And even though we knew
What we’d have to do
The writing on the wall
Didn’t tell us how to be unbroken
You have taken half my heartbeat left behind a sigh, I
Sink into this bittersweet goodbye
That moment when you saw my soul
Has coloured all my life
I sink into this slow and golden
Bittersweet goodbye

Stronger Than You Know

There's another sun rising
So you're another day older too
Another path her for the choosing
Another day of watcha gonna do
It's not easy choosing
I know your roots are strong
But think of all you're losing
And everything that's wrong
There's no way to tell you
How your pain can make me cry
And wonder why
You are woman
You are beautiful
Inside, outside
Body and soul
You're a lover
You're a tiger
You are stronger
Stronger than you know
There's your reflection in the mirror
She’s someone you've been fighting a long, long time
Maybe today you'll choose to love her
‘Cause your fight's got a reason, but no rhyme
And there's no way of knowing
Just what it's like inside
These masks that we're all wearing
Because we need to hide
That we're all less than perfect
And or fears can make us cry
And wonder why
REFRAIN
(Instrumental)
Maybe it's the right thing
To stay along this road
And I will pray for healing
For your heart to be whole
There's no need to tell you
How your smile can make me cry
No wonder why
REFRAIN

What do you do with a broken heart?
Who was holding it when it slipped and shattered?
Look at this rainbow around my feet
Shards of the sum of the somethings that mattered.
In dreams you may dream of the dreams mislaid
I was making plans when the world shook and shifted
Glittering fragments await my brush
Picking the pieces apart and uplifted
Marvel of polish and patina
Time suspended now, this moment lingers
Sorting these pebbles of rain and rust
Holding this life in my uncertain fingers
In dreams you may dream of the dreams that stayed
I am holding space for my grief sweet and sacred
Glittering memories await my gaze
Shining like gems in the dark, still unfaded
solo
Palettes of pathos and empathy
Rearranging life in new paths and patterns
Drawing a lantern with every breath
Breathing new light into uncharted caverns
In dreams you may dream of the dreams to come
I am forging my fate in this life I’ve been gifted
Glittering moments await me still
Gathering glass into art, life unscripted

I'll make a little noise
Yeah make a little noise
I have a voice
Now is the time to be loud and proud
I'll make a little noise
Yeah make a little noise
Can't turn me down
I've got things to say
I spent too long being sweet, being nice
I said yes when I meant no
Now that I'm older and wiser I know
I can't accept the status quo
I'll make a little noise (drums)
Yeah, make a little noise (drums)
Don't tell me that
I'm being too loud
Just make a little noise
Yeah make a little noise
I'll have my say
Can't keep me down, you can't drown me out
I'll make a little noise
Yeah make a little noise
I'll break the rules
It's my turn today
I spent too long being tame, being good
I said no when I meant yes
I always did what they told me I should
It's time to be rebellious
I'll make a little noise (drums)
Just like one of the boys (drums)
Come stand with me
It's time to be loud

Gaslight

She says that you’re insincere
That you spin the world into lies
She says that you’re only here
For the payoff, for the prize
She says that you’re immature
That your mind is like a child’s
She says that you’re dangerous
That you’re devious, you’re wild.
She says so many things
That you go into a spin
You start to think like her
But just when you begin, you know it’s
Gaslight (gaslight)
Ohh, gaslight (gaslight)
Ohh, gaslight
She says you’re delusional
That you can’t tell fact from fable
She says that you’re frivolous
That you’re sneaky and unstable
She says you manipulate
All the people in your life
Falsely sweet and fiercely mean
With a tongue sharp as a knife
For a moment I can see her
Through her damaged soul and all
Sh’es talking to you but she’s looking
At the mirror on the wall

With You Love (Live)

Come dance with me
My heart never felt so free
But with you love is new
Now I see all the joy there can be
And when I'm with you
There is nothing I can't do
Darling, I know, every day is an adventure to share with you
Once I was lost in the darkness of shame
When you came with light
We were strangers to each other and to ourselves
Now I know how to love
Like I've never loved before
And to be loved, and to be loved
Now and forever

Show Me Your Heart

Show me your heart
All your joy and trouble
Show me your heart
Does it look like mine?
Can you really go it alone?
Could you use a hand up?
Show me your heart
And I’ll throw you a line
Did you ever feel you had the devil on your shoulders?
Did you ever feel your sins sink you like boulders?
If you want to start fresh again, you may not believe it
It’s never to late to get a reprieve
REFRAIN
Did you ever feel your web getting too tangled?
Did you ever feel your soul getting too mangled?
You can always call on my friend, I’ll show you compassion
Today’s a new day, the past is the past
REFRAIN

Dragonfly

I was a child
Down by the lakeshore
Dragonflies sailing
Shimmering wings
Gossamer fairies
So winsome and wild
Those magical mornings are ever engraved on my mind
Once I was lying
Face to the sun
Dragonfly landed
Close to my heart
Looked into my eyes
Straight into my soul
And suddenly shifted the sky so the whole world stood still
I never knew such
Primal elation
Luminous rapture that tenderly captured my soul
Then my eyes opened
And fancy had flown
Dragonfly, that was the moment I knew who I was
~ Instrumental ~
Sun and wind shifting
Water shines bright
Lake made of starlight
Calling my name
Solitude breathing
A prayer to the earth
Dragonflies dancing to worship the water and sky
Now in the winter
Water lies still
Tenderly shrouded
Under the snow
Sweet benediction
Of peaceful repose
Shadows of dragonflies flickering just out of sight
Fly away, fairy
Back to your homeland
Part of your essence remains in my presence and heart
Someday you'll find me
Or I will find you
Dragonfly, my sweetest wishes of love go with you
Dragonfly, my sweetest wishes of love go with you
