STAY AWHILE back to top
There's got to be a better way, she said to me
All these feelings inside of me, what do they mean
What it is like on the outside looking in
Where do I end and you begin
Saying goodbye never solved a thing
C'mon girl won't you stay awhile
Promise me you will stay awhile
Sometimes we change from who we are
into what we will become
What we want isn't always how we end up
What does it mean?
What it is like on the outside looking in
Where do I end and you begin
Saying goodbye never solved a thing
C'mon girl won't you stay awhile
Promise me you will stay awhile
FOLLOW YOUR HEART back to top
She is searching for the meaning, the meaning of her life
Where she looks there are no answers
and she is left feeling so empty inside
So she gathers all her reasons
Figures out the steps she will take
and as things around her seem to fall apart
But they are falling in just the right place
It doesn't matter where you go
It doesn't matter where you are
There is not a path you can falter
You must follow your heart
Oh you can cry, oh you can give up now
Oh you'll get by, oh it's inevitable
She gathers all her reasons
Figures out the chances she will take
It seems she is so far behind
But she is just in the right place
CAN BE FOUND back to top
What if this was all that there would ever be
Would you be satisfied
What if true love comes once in your life
Would you make it last this time
I want the answers quickly
Just give them to me now
I want the answers quickly; give them to me now
What if this was all just shades of gray
No colors to get in the way
What if truth was all that you could speak
What would you begin to say
It's not the how, it's not the why
It's the path we take to get there
And that is where I can be found
It's not the strength or lack of
It's the path we choose to rise above
And that is where I can be found
What if forgiveness came easily
Who would you call to say you're sorry
What if we could not survive with pain
How many of us would be here today
REALLY DOES MATTER back to top
I give you light and you give me all your shadows
I give you my love and you shoot me
with your bow and arrow
Oh I treat you with kindness
And how you treat me like a little girl
And it don't matter to me -I tell you
It doesn't matter anymore
More and more I need you
and needing more than words
I feel so vulnerable to your actions
That cannot be heard
Just hold me close now
I can feel your heart inside
I'm not as fearless as I seem on the outside
If you're scared, well I will be right there
along with you
I give you pictures that you hang up as scenery
I write you poems hoping someday
you'll believe in me
You see it really does matter to me
IMPORTANT TO ME back to top
If the sun should set before I get
to say these things to you
It's important to me that you know
I wanted only the best
If the happiness should leave your heart
Loneliness and desperate thoughts
It's important to me that you know
You were always more to me
If we could change all those things
If we could wish for just one thing, what would it be
It's important to me, what would it be
What we thought was on our way
Partly what we needed to say
It's important to me that you know
I would have chosen you either way
If the moon should dim before I give
All myself away to you
It's important to me that you realize
I have changed forever, feel from inside
HOW DO I KNOW back to top
My thoughts are getting reckless
and my dreams I squint to see
All these walls surround me
and I can't break free
My love is feeling scattered
and my life is not what I think it should be
All these doubts surround me
Please don't let them take over me
Tell me how do I know
If I'm on the right road, the right track
headed in the right direction
Tell me how do I know
Is it in my heart, my soul
Tell me will I ever be whole
How do I know
My family doesn't understand me
I never realized I was so complex
All these walls surround me
I'm unprepared for what comes next |
