Good Thing
Little sister you are not forgotten
I will always listen every time
Take my hand, I’m not always certain
But I know the worth, just to try
I think the world should know
The brilliance you could show
For sure I’m not alone
My grief gets no reply
Too many standing by
I’ll live while I’m alive
Try to say it right
Another good thing gone
Not gonna let you be
Another good thing gone again
Politicians desert and the water
Will you take your sons and daughters out to sea
Wildflower springing up in winter
Long before their hour
Just to freeze
Is this the place I live
Not what I thought it is
The ground is giving way
Too many standing by
I’ll live while I’m alive
Just to say it right
Another good thing gone
Not gonna let it be
Another good thing gone again
One life
Are you gonna go my way
Do you feel the same
Another good thing gone
Tell me how it went wrong
Another good thing gone again

Don’t You Worry
Lost your hope your time your place and your name
To yourself you keep
A friend in need needs no reason why
To put out their hand and reach
When it all comes down
Don’t you worry I'll stay
There’s no way I can leave you behind
You won’t be all alone
My voice stands in your place
Until we all find our way
Follow you all the way back home
To what should be yours to keep
Then somebody tells you
That you don’t belong
So you run circles in your sleep
When it all comes down
Don’t you worry I'll stay
There’s no way I can leave you behind
You won’t be all alone
My voice stands in your place
Until we all find our way
From the sky down to the sea
You are not forgotten
When the world won’t let you breathe
You have still got me

Strange Loop
Life can be such a strange loop
As much as we can do
The needle still jumps the groove
Baby it’s a hot house
Let me help you break out
Find the wild ways that make you feel right
I know you
Like it like I do
Let’s get it down to the letter
Love’s gonna make it better
Love’s gonna bring us back alive
Let’s get it down to the letter
Love’s gonna make it better
Gonna make it take your time
Everyday now
Everybody’s got their something
Their something to prove
Waiting on the world
To spin the way the do
Baby it’s a hot house
Let me help you break out
Find the wild ways that make you feel right
I know you
Like it like I do
Let’s get it down to the letter
Love’s gonna make it better
Love’s gonna bring us back alive
Let’s get it down to the letter
Love’s gonna make it better
Gonna make you take you’re time
Everyday now

Count the Stars
Long before I ever wake up
I think I hear myself say, it’s time to get along now
For all the things I could be missing
The words that might get written they’d show me how
One day turns right into another
I’m not so sure I’ve got to wonder
If I haven’t had it right all this time
Life the way it goes
Does anyone really know
Realize my eyes are open
That moment I’m still hoping
I can make it right
For everything I am expecting
Never should be less than those dreams at night
One day turns right into another
I’m, not so sure I’ve got to wonder
If I haven’t had it right all this time
Life the way it goes
Does anyone really know
One day turns right into another
I’m not so sure I’ve got to wonder
If I haven’t had it right all this time
Life the way goes
Does anyone really know
When you need to know why
Count the stars up in the sky

High Time
Lovely looked America
Walking hand in hand with that special someone
But she tripped up before daylight
Stuffed her panties in her pocket and was out of sight
Sea to shining sea isn’t what it used to be
High times we start to think this over
High times we sent those letters home
High time it ain’t over ‘til it’s over
Hey baby don’t cry now, change is in the room
She’s falling through the looking glass
Doing all she can just to hold on fast
Liberty is on the move
Trying to get a look at something that is new
Never did really want to hear
Anything so loud and clear
High times we start to think this over
High times we sent those letters home
High time it ain’t over ‘til it’s over
Hey baby look out now, change is in the room
She’s a little Dorian Gray
One look in the mirror (gotta turn away) (America turns her face)
Simple though as it may be
Never too late
To be free
Nothing is beyond repair
Spacious skies way out there

Big Life
Everybody wants their everything
So why sit around and wait for life to bring what it brings
Feels like we’ve so little choice in the matter
But the truth is we seem to figure it out after it’s too late
So I’m looking for the golden me
Gonna take this hope and fly across the sea
Little birdie on my shoulder
Come and sing to me
This big life
Keeps rolling on
Ready or not it’s calling
Could be the sweetest song
This big life
Keeps rolling on
Ready or not it’s calling
Could be the sweetest song
It goes on and on and on
Let it go on and on and on
Every now and then I am amazed
Just how much we get in our own way
Freedom really has gone under ground
Making it so hard for us to dig out
But look the whole world is in bloom
Listen for the ones who carry the tune
Little birdie on my shoulder
Come and sing to me
This big life
Keeps rolling on
Ready or not it’s calling
Could be the sweetest song
This big life
Keeps rolling on
Ready or not it’s calling
Could be the sweetest song
It goes on and on and on
Let it go on and on and on

Starshine
Come to me starshine
Cast off the world tonight
There’s only you and I
And all that we might find
Come to me starshine
When words fail to make it right
In you there is no lie
Constant and watching over
Crowded by the details of
What it means to be enough
I see myself in your design
Every hour, every place
Where I am is where you stay
Miles never can divide
Come to me starshine
You never let me down
In you I’m always found
Sometimes I don’t know how
I don’t need a reason why
I don’t need to hear goodbye
You’ve got it all burning bright
And if I mess up today
Come to me, make your way
Gravity you can defy
Starshine

Walk This World
Unwind
You and I are so right
Relax it couldn’t be better if we tried
We have got a way
When it’s gone to far
People show just who they are
Walk this world with me
From the earth up to the sky
Entwined
We’re looking at the bright side
Sure enough we are of one mind
Now isn’t that the way
When you lose hold
Try and spin that fear to gold
Walk this world with me
From the earth up to the sky
Everywhere we are, everything we find
Nothing ever will take me from your side
Love lost
What if we had been caught
Forever our stars would have been crossed
But love it finds a way
Recognize
This truth can’t be undermined
Walk this world with me
From the earth up to the sky
Everywhere we are, everything we find
Nothing ever will take me from your side

Whirlwind
You and I begin
To try and make sense of the whole thing
It should be easy
At the speed of light
Everything goes by in a whirlwind
And did we see it
No need to let it get away
When we all really feel the same
Life gone by
Come try, stay a little longer
Life gone by
Come home, let it make you stronger
Nothing in front of us
Only ourselves, only us
We feel what we believe
We are the words we read
We try and separate
From all the things we cannot take
Somehow we go our own way
But in the end we all feel the same
Life gone by
Come try, stay a little longer
Life gone by
Come home, let it make you stronger
If yesterday makes it here in time
If everything we look for is everything we find
One step closer I’m by your side
Here comes the way to make it right

Burn the House
How do I make it right
The disappointment in your eyes
I have more left inside
But don’t wanna face the killing kind
Miracles when we dream
I just can’t get to sleep
I see how you lose yourself
In a beautiful flash like nobody else
I am not what you are
Never too high so I don’t fall far
Won’t burn the house just to find the ground
But maybe more of you is all I need now
Love my way to a higher ground
Forgiveness if I can’t figure it out
Feel like I lost my chance
So I never show my hand
Miracles when we dream
I just can’t get to sleep
I see how you lose yourself
In a beautiful flash like nobody else
I am not what you are
Never too high so I don’t fall far
Won’t burn the house just to find the ground
But maybe more of you is all I need now
I see how you lose yourself
In a beautiful flash like nobody else
Unafraid to take the leap
Even when the drop is steep
I am not what you are
Never too high so I don’t fall far
But maybe more of you is all I need now
Won’t burn the house just to find the ground
