Fall Down
04:09

|

wearily it is time it is time to close your mind
they don’t know you like I do like I do and you are mine
you are mine you are mine you are mine
listen now listen to me closely life is never very easy
so fall down fall down gently down gently down gently
hopefully you will see you will see it was meant to be
take your hands off let it go let it go let it go
let it go let it go let it go let it go
listen now listen to me closely life is never very easy
so fall down fall down gently down gently down
gently

If Not Now
04:45

sometimes there’s an emptiness and I wonder if it’s you I miss
you’re a stranger ever near a smile in the mirror
I see your hands in mine I feel your rhythm in my life
Father is it too late?
Is it too late?
Father is it too late?
sometimes there’s a buried need a treasure chest inside of me
you found the map a long time ago when you told me I was your babygirl
but you traded it in you traded it in for fools gold chased the dragon with a cloud of smoke
Father is it too late?
Is it too late?
Father is it too late?
sometimes there’s a quiet prayer a hopeful thought that I’ll see you there
I know a man who can get you in all you gotta do is ask for him
sometimes there’s an emptiness…

This Skin
03:30
|
|

you say you don’t know, just wait and see don’t let myself go, while you steal all of me
babe I don’t know but I’ve always believed that something for nothing is what they call free
but I’m not mad at you I’m just mad at myself for letting you see somebody else
I opened the door invited you in still you never asked for more than this
sin this skin this flesh this dress this sin this skin this flesh this dress this sin
mama says I’m beautiful and daddy says I’m his babygirl
but mama don’t make me beautiful and daddy left along time ago
I see you look at me when I walk away my sway you say it makes you wanna
it makes you wanna and I’m so beautiful
but I’m not mad at you I’m just mad at myself I knew all along I was somebody else
I opened the door invited you in still you never asked for more than this
sin this skin this flesh this dress this sin this skin this flesh this dress…
charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting it’s fleeting it’s fleeting it’s fleeting it’s fleeting…

Maybe
03:38
|
|||
Jesus friend of the weak won’t you step down from that cross and have a drink with me
when tomorrow morning comes with the stale air will you bring me coffee black and bare
stand by the window hold back the light help me forget what I did last night
creator author of life have you seen my baby I’ve been under the knife
and the doctors reached deep inside and delivered me from the story you were trying to write
savior what does that mean I mean I ain’t got nothing that needs saving
I ain’t got nothing that needs saving
I ain’t got nothing
maybe if I just believe just believe just believe
maybe if I just believe just believe just believe
maybe if I just believe just believe just believe
maybe…

Walk Away
03:04
|
|||
with a smile as sweet as love you hold me for a while
I feel the shove you told me to stay
so I stay as you walk away you walk away
oh the things that you say things that you say
oh the things that you say things that you say
oh the things that you say things that you say
you walk away
so I’m still here dreaming eyes wide open
this is real you’re screaming words unspoken
things you say things you say as you walk away
you walk away
oh the things that you say things that you say
oh the things that you say things that you say
oh the things that you say things that you say
you walk away
away away away
walk away walk away walk away
oh the things that you say things that you say

Emily Ann
07:14
|

Emily Ann hold out your hands don’t be ashamed of them
Emily Ann take off your shoes don’t be confused
blessed are the feet that bring good news
blessed are your feet that bring me you Emily
Emily Ann lend me your clothes you’ve got style like no one I know
and you’re a beautiful secret I intend to expose Emily
God made you meek you find yourself weak
God made you pure you feel unsure
God made you love you don’t feel good enough
but God made you God made you Emily Ann
Emily Ann things can never be the same the great expectation can only be change
I’m here your there there’s no one to blame but I miss you
Emily Ann my apologies will never amount to the grace you’ve shown me
see I once was lost but you’ve always been free Emily
God make you meek you find yourself weak
God made you pure you feel unsure
God made you love you don’t feel good enough
but God made you God made you Emily
Emily Ann come to the ocean with me we’ll let the waves carry us away
we’ll let the waves carry us away then we’ll find our identities
Emily Ann meet me by the sea…

She's Daisies
06:04
|
|||
my mama she’s daisies she bends down low
you can cover her in concrete she’ll find a way to grow
in between the cracks the gray and the black is where she loves to go
my mama she’s daisies she bends down low
my mama she’s daisies she dances with the wind
no matter if it’s raining she moves like a sacred hymn
yellow white and wild she’s His love child and she walks down the aisle again
my mama she’s daisies she dances with the wind
my mama she’s daisies a weed by some she’s pruned
they look for ways to keep her out afraid of being consumed
but there’s no defense ’gainst the innocence of a flower in bloom
my mama she’s daisies she’s the bright light of June!

In the Country
03:56
|
|||
for you I’ll buy some land in the country and there we’ll be beneath your willow tree
on our land in the country
for you I’ll build a house made of maple and there we’ll live with our labrador and 4 kids
in our house made of maple
for you I’ll grow a field of gardenias and the air will breath your childhood purity
as you walk through your field of gardenias
for you I’ll learn to play the piano and you can sing strong and sweet along with me
on the piano
for you I’ll pray to our Father up in heaven that we’ll become like the setting sun
falling from heaven

When Morning Comes
04:42
|
|||
when morning comes I’ll find you lying next to me
your heart and mine will be together you and me
I won’t go back to the things that kept me from you
I can’t explain how you want to be mine forever
you took my life turned it around now I won’t ever leave you leave you
don’t you leave me
oh no I’m never gonna leave you
oh no I’m never gonna leave you

Make it Sing
03:48
|
|||
I have nothing but a bleeding heart that needs your truth
I have nothing but a bleeding heart that needs your truth
search my heart O God search my heart O God
search my heart O God search my heart O God
you call nothing to be something
you make art of ugly things
you take my life and you make it sing
you make it sing you make it sing
praise praise God praise God O praise Him…
