I don’t pretend to know
All the answers life will show,
And I don’t believe I’ll go,
Quite as far as I could.
You can lean on me if you want to,
But I’m not as strong as you think I am,
I can help you a little longer,
And I’ll stay the whole night through,
But if you’re looking for someone,
Who [...]

Lullaby, lullaby,
Stars are singing their lullaby,
But I’m not ready to say goodnight to you.
Moonbeams sigh, whispers shy,
Moon wants me to say goodnight.
But there’s a lot left to say and I haven’t got through.
Like how much you mean to me,
And how we were meant to be,
Two of the greatest friends in our life’s history,
How [...]

I guess this isn’t meant so much of an apology as an affirmation that I’m not…perfect, but I didn’t mean to screw certain things up. And I’m so, so sorry I did.
Watch the butterflies go by,
Listen to the wind as it sighs,
Don’t believe any lies -
I’ll always love you.
Maybe I’ve said awful things,
Left [...]

So I’m going to this music camp at my music school, and I’m a voice major – aka I’m singing. All. Day. Long. And it’s both a blessing and a curse because I enjoy the singing, but I get so tired of it… and I have hardly a say at all in a lot of [...]

Piano’s sleeping centerstage,
Baby’s nestled in the left wing.
Mama’s getting ready for her solo,
Waiting to make her voice sing.
She closes her eyes, wanting to soar,
Hearing the imaginary crowds all roar,
But the daydream’s split by a baby’s cry,
Showgirl mama’s wondering why,
Wondering why, wondering why,
Baby’s crying, baby’s crying.
Someday baby will grow up,
Asking questions ’bout what Mama [...]

You say you’re going crazy,
But I think you’re just having one of those days,
Where everything’s wrong,
And you can’t find your song,
And you keep on stumbling.
I know you’re not listening
When I tell you that you’re perfect.
And maybe we fight,
But don’t you think twice,
I don’t want you to give up on life.
Your life’s still got [...]

She’s waiting at the door;
Doesn’t want to hold on anymore.
It’s been so long,
Since someone’s been there for her.
She had no choice,
No one listened to her beautiful voice,
Now she believes
That her importance has gone on leave.
It’s raining up, and the sky is green,
The voices in her head paint a brand new scene.
A haven away [...]

Look at the world around you,
Look at the crime and the hate -
Watch for the signs of apolcolypse,
Don’t be surprised by fate.
Open your eyes to the terror,
Open your hearts to the cries.
We could all do a little bit more,
Y’know it’s never too hard to try.
We need a new beginning,
We need an answered prayer,
We [...]

I thought I loved you
Guess I wanted someone to love me too.
I thought we had it all,
Didn’t think you’d go and let me fall.
You left me behind in a thunder storm
And Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
Oh I knew the day that you gave her a ring,
That you never knew how to step [...]

I could think of a dozen ways
To say that I love you,
But they’re all cliché.
So maybe I’ll sing you a love song, baby
Maybe I’ll sing you a love song.
I’d give you a dozen kisses each day,
And even more at night,
Oh you know that I’m right.
Or I could just sing you a love song, [...]
