Let me see, if I can explain some things to you
They’re hard to come by, but only life can bring them to you.
You don’t have to be who they think you are
You don’t have to be a star.
You don’t have to be who they want you to be
You just have to be who you are.
Chorus:
It’s not too late: let me see if I can explain
It’s not too late: let me see if I can explain
It’s not too late, not too late
When I was young, my mother she showed me what to do
I’m passing it on, the ageless baton, my love for you.
To listen and be wise
She opened up my eyes.
She taught me what to do
An now I’m showing you
Chorus:
Bridge:
Things I did not have the heart to share
No one cared, they were blind
Now the time has come to open up and pass the gift to you.
You are young. The whole world is there for you.
So much fun, people are there to care for you.
Find a place to start
Just open up your heart
Don’t be afraid to share
And find someone who cares.
Chorus and end.

Smile America
04:02
|
|||
If we don’t try to help each other solve this mystery
We won’t find out how very strong we are
The challenges well, they’re all great, we know we can’t be weak
Just put your helping hand in mind, we’ll see.
Chorus:
It’s time to Smile, Smile, Smile America
Holding onto what is dear and true.
And we will Smile, Smile, Smile America
For God has not forsaken me and you.
Bridge: Let all our tears and fears and sorrow just slip away
Don’t watch the ground; just hold your head up high.
Let’s do the very best we can and soon, we all will
Know.
Nothing can defeat our hearts
Because our faith is strong! 2X
If we don’t get this thing together, one by one we’ll see
You and I need each other to be strong.
Traveling this road together, from sea to shining sea
Open up to what we all can be
Chorus
It’s time to Smile, Smile, Smile America
Holding onto what is dear and true
And we will Smile, Smile, Smile America
For God has not forsaken me and you.
Chorus:
And we will Smile, Smile, Smile our whole way through
Holding onto what is dear and true
And we shall Stand Tall, Tall America
For God has not forsaken me and you.
For God has not forsaken me and you.
For God has not forsaken me and you.

Tomorrow Is Now
05:09
|
|||
Every day, she’d sit all alone in her room
With just the sound of her ticking clock.
She was afraid of her life and afraid of dying
She was afraid of her fears and afraid trying.
She was afraid to taste the sun and afraid of crying
And she never saw the sunrise at sunset.
Chorus:
But tomorrow is now and here is the day
When she wore her tears like a dress
Tomorrow is now and gone is the day
When she knows there are no regrets.
There’s no turning back, she’s letting it go,
It’s time to be free and she’s letting it show
There’s no turning back and there’s nowhere to hide
She’s starting it over, she’s ready to fly.
Everyday, she’d sit all alone in her gloom
Listening to the cold winter’s rain.
She was afraid to try again and afraid of losing
She was afraid to risk again and afraid of moving
She was afraid to act on faith and afraid of choosing
And she never saw the sunrise at sunset.
Chorus:
But tomorrow is now and here is the day
When she wore her tears like a dress
Tomorrow is now and gone is the day
When she knows there are no regrets.
There’s no turning back, she’s letting it go,
It’s time to be free and she’s letting it show.
There’s no turning back and there’s nowhere to hide
She’s starting it over, she’s ready to fly.
She’s starting it over,
She’s starting it over,
She’s starting it over, she’s ready to fly, fly fly.

I Know The Secrets
05:04
|
|||
I know the secrets of the mountains
Of the desert and the stars
I know the message of the valleys
And the fire that is ours, with you… with you.
I know the rhythm of the ocean
And the laughter that it brings,
The wind is dancing devotion
As across the world it sings, to you… to you.
You encircle the four corners
Of the universe
Swirling clouds across the open skies
Sending moonbeams with your soft hands
Chasing shadows that fly by.
I crossed the border and surpassed time
Stirred love loose for you and me
We’ll move together now in rainbow rhyme
As we sail the endless sea, to you…to you.
Instrumental then repeat chorus and verse

Not My Job
05:49
|
|||
Everybody knows that you’re insane, it’s true
Everybody knows you’re not to blame, are you?
Everybody knows that no one’s there for you
Everybody knows that no one cares for you, but me.
I see your heart is heading for the fan.
And all the pieces they fall down.
And even though it’s set for free.
I am not about to stand around and
Chorus: It’s not my job. It’s not my job to watch you
It’s not my job to watch you falling
It’s not my job. It’s not my job to watch you
It’s not my job, to watch you crawling
I don’t want the pay. I don’t like the pay.
And I don’t want the pay today!
Chorus

Surrender
03:49
|
|||
You don’t have to feel alone, to run away and hide.
You may not see me always with you,
But I’ll be there at your side.
You gain nothing keeping separate staying to yourself
Love is lost until you find it to share with someone else.
Chorus:
Surrender (All your tears will fade away)
Together (Love is here for us to stay)
Surrender (I am yours and you are mine)
Forever (We are one in love’s design)
Surrender (That’s when we’ll know love is true)
Together (You in me and me in you)
Forever (We’ll find love)
Peace comes easy when we forfeit
Forcing what seems right.
Giving up what doesn’t count is a blessing in disguise.
You gain nothing keeping separate staying to yourself.
Love seems lost until you find it to share with someone else.

America Smiling
04:44
|
|||
Chorus:
I can see America smiling,
Left behind is that fearful frown.
I can feel a new day dawning,
Gone are the days of looking down.
The only chance she saw to make a life was in L.A.
Folding towels, cleaning rooms she worked hard day by day,
Then gave in to fear and doubt.
She was down, on the street, looked about everywhere,
To feed her kids, find a place to stay.
Met a friend, she caught a break, found a job she liked.
She works downtown near where she stays.
Chorus:
I can see America smiling,
Left behind is that fearful frown.
I can feel a new day dawning,
Gone are the days of looking down.
He left the gang, made a friend,
She was not from his world.
He knew this change was just what he needs.
They fell in love, head over heels, looking back no more, Free and clear from past mis-deeds.
Chorus:

Make Up Your Mind
03:38
|

Chorus:
Make up your mind, make up your mind, do what you want to.
Do what you want, do what you want, do what you want to.
Your dream is calling to you to catch it if you can.
I’ve seen it waiting for you exactly where you stand
Some will have advice to give you of what is best for you
Just listen to what you hear then you’ll know what’s true.
Chorus
Make up your mind, make up your mind, do what you want to
Do what you want to, do what you want, do what you want to.
Bridge:
Watch the man who’s giving all his love away,
He takes time for living, giving love each day.
See the children playing, Laughter fills the air
Look at how they love life, living without care –
Without care
Chorus

I Will Never Walk Alone
04:54
|

I will never walk alone, ‘cause I have finally found my home
Ahhhh, what peace and joy I’ve found
And I will always be around you.
My Father’s house is where I live
That’s where I find the love to give
Ahhhh, what happiness I’ve found
And I will always be around you.
Though I travel far and wide through distant lands
You always take me by the hand
Sometimes the clouds may try to hide my way
But through your eyes, I see the Light of day
I will never be afraid, ‘cause I am in His heart to stay
Ahhhh what peace and joy I’ve found
I will always be around you.
Never walk alone
Peace and joy I’ve found
In your heart to stay
Always be around

The Phoenix
08:46
|
|||
There are those in the world who hold to a view
That life is for love and living peace too.
But some of us don’t know the purpose we are here
So we fight and we war to hold onto our fear.
Chorus:
But the Phoenix will rise from its ashes and hope will spring from despair.
The love will rise to the surface and peace will rein everywhere….Ooooo oooooo
The signs all around say the time it is near,
For men to put aside their hate.
We can change, change our lives, and put aside fear
For love it is never, never too late
Chorus
Ooooo oooo
We hold these truths to be self-evident…That all men and women are created equal.
