What has happened to mankind Chasing money for sensations Building cities in the skies As we search for peace through our desires Let’s love each other and find peace from all the pain Let’s be a little kinder and maybe then we’ll see the change So be careful what you wish for Envy, anger, misery That is not what makes us stronger In this race to reach the top, what’s become of our true nature To love each other and find peace from all the pain To be a little kinder, maybe then you’ll see the change So be careful what you wish for Be careful what you wish for We always want what we can’t have Just let go of expectations Be forgiving of yourself, just believe The things we seek are deep within us To love each other and find peace from all the pain To be a little kinder, maybe then you’ll see the change So be careful what you wish for Be careful what you wish for Ooooh Ooooh Be careful what you wish for Ooooh Ooooh Be careful what you wish for

Let Me Go 03:25
Lying by my side The love in your eyes How can I explain that it’s time to break away Let me go, give me time To be alone To find out who I am And you should know I hope you understand We’re on a broken road So it’s time to let me go Please don’t ask why No, you won’t understand I simply have to try to live while I still can So let me go, give me time To be alone To find out who I am And you should know I hope you understand We’re on a broken road So it’s time to let me go I leave you now to escape this darkness How could you not see We were finished before we started, started to be real Let me go, so clear that now’s the time To be alone, to find out who I am And you should know, I hope you undertstand We’re on a broken road So it’s time to let me go

Late at night when I’m all alone Memories oh they haunt me I’ll break the spell, because I know too well I’m stronger living without you Out of my head, let’s not pretend that we found love You are erased, you’re not a memory, lost love Out of my head it’s not the end of me, you’ll see I may be hurting now but you won’t get the better of me Go away, you’re too little too late I know you never meant to hurt me My hearts black and blue, now I don’t want you Please don’t call me again Out of my head, let’s not pretend that we found love You are erased, you’re not a memory, lost love Out of my head it’s not the end of me, you’ll see I may be hurting now but you won’t get the better of me If only, you would just disappear out of my mind If only, letting go could be easier tonight Oh Oh Oh Oh Out of my head, let’s not pretend that we found love You are erased, you’re not a memory, lost love Out of my head it’s not the end of me, you’ll see I may be hurting now but you won’t get the better of me The better of me The better of me The better of me

Seems like only yesterday we were forever How we let it slip away so carelessly Oh what might have been, had we known We would never be like this again Ever again Have you ever wondered why we didn’t make it It isn’t like we didn’t try, God knows we tried Oh what might have been, you and I But we were both so young back then Too young to know oh Fair is fair, truth or dare First it’s there, then it’s gone Fair is fair, truth or dare First it’s there, then it’s gone While you’re busy making other plans Life just happens Building castles in the sand with the tide rolling in Oh what might have been, we’ll never know If we could do it all again Oh would it change, I just don’t know Oh what might have been We’ll never know If we could do it all again Oh would it change, I just don’t know

Walk With Me 02:51
I have a dream that one day when I close my eyes all that I will see is you Every day will be brand new, you’d touch my skin I’d melt within to be with you Walk with me, I’ll dance if you will lead You’re the one, baby be mine Oh how I long to stroke my fingers through your hair Tell you that I’ve cared all this time I hope you’ll let my heart begin To feel the love I know is within, always Walk with me, I’ll dance if you will lead You’re the one, baby be mine Baby be mine

There once was a girl, her name was Grace She lived her life defined by her mistakes She’d look up and all she’d see were stormy skies Or at least that’s what it felt like through her eyes The world around her ashen gray From bridges she burnt along the way Waking up from a dream can be harder than it seems When she’s not strong enough, all that can bring her back is love Help her see the silver lining above Deeper and deeper she goes Sitting at rock bottom before she knows To look up and see the sky is clear again And her journey through dark days may soon end Will you be there to take her hand? Lifting the vail you help her stand Waking up from a dream can be harder than it seems When you’re not strong enough, what can bring you back is love When I’m not strong enough Will you bring me back with love? When I’m not strong enough Will you bring me back with love? Help me see the silver lining above

Fingerprints 03:16
All these people living in their pain, become lost in time I was searching, now it’s making sense The time is now, the time is now Felt the fall, heard the call, saw the signs Shimmering lights all over me A work of art that’s what we are shining bright Fingerprints all over me What you give is what you get you see Share your heart, share your love There are reasons for everyone we meet All a part of who we are Felt the fall, heard the call, saw the signs Shimmering lights all over me A work of art that’s what we are shining bright With this love surrounding me Me, Me Saved me, forgave me You can see the signs if you open up your eyes Saved me forgave me Help me live between the lines, between the lines I had to fall to hear the call, feel the light This light of love all over me A work of art is what we are shining bright With this grace surrounding me I had to fall to hear the call, feel the light This light of love all over me A work of art is what we are With this love surrounding me

As I stand here and I look into your eyes There’s no reason to disquise this love that we share You’re my future, you’re my strength my heart and soul And I give to you my hand to hold With this ring I am yours and forever I will hold you Keep you safe from the tears and I’ll love you ‘til the end of time I will love you ‘til the stars fall from the sky This dream will never die, baby it’s true You’re the answer to a prayer I’ve always known And I’ll never be alone with you by my side With this ring I am yours and forever I will hold you Keep you safe from the tears and I’ll love you ‘til the end of time You and I will always be the sun touching the sea You know it now, somewhere, somehow God brought you to me With this ring I am yours and forever I will hold you Keep you safe from the tears and I’ll love you ‘til the end of time With this ring I am yours and forever I will hold you Keep you safe from the tears and I’ll love you ‘til the end of time I will love you forever

Serenity 03:58
Will we be set free when all our time done? Is this one big dream that we wake up from? Use your time wisely, be kind to those you love and those you don’t Accept the things you can not change Life’s full of twists and turns, you’ll never know... Dangerous game, choosing our way With every breath we take None of us have a long stay Use your time wisely, be kind to those you love and those you don’t Don’t forget to love yourself, fight your fears and let them go Let life surprise you and you will realise you’re not alone Let your heart guide you If you listen close, then you will know

Have a little faith, it’s all you can do Sometimes a miracle can come your way when you need it to Open the door and let it in, see it through ‘Cause I have faith in you I have faith in you Oh we all love and we all lose Sometimes the ones who leave us behind, they send us clues So at night when you feel like dying and the tears won’t stop falling Catch a breath, say a prayer and know your love is standing there And they’re listening and they’re whispering I have faith in you Oh Oh Something was stolen, there’s a war breaking out But stay in this moment and we will figure it out ‘Cause the sun will keep on rising and the world will keep on turning They’ll be walking right beside you Think of them, they’re thinking of you Over time you will get stronger Let your pain be your teacher and each day they’ll be there whispering I have faith in you I have faith in you Open the door, let it in, see it through ‘Cause I have faith in you I have faith in you Oh I have faith in you I have faith in you

about

What I initially thought would be a pipe dream of working with Fred Mollin has finally become a reality. After that very first day where I met Fred over a fried chicken and brazenly asked him if he’d produce my next cd, to our next coffee encounter the following day where I insisted on singing for him in the parking lot of a Nashville strip mall, a special friendship was formed and arrangements were made for us to work together. What a journey this in itself has been.

There were times over the last year when I thought I may have to say ‘no’ to doing this album due to funding…but in those many moments of uncertainty, I had an overwhelming surety that somehow the money would come. And if by pure chance and serendipity, it did come. And in miraculous ways, the album got made. This record wouldn’t have been possible without all of the beautiful souls who contributed so much to it. So many tiny little pieces came together, and each little step, inching slowly forward, became a path. I hope that the music inspires you in times of darkness and light.
