Beautiful View PRE-VERSE: My heart is in a sad song Nothing's going right Minor is my major key tonight These words are hard to form And my soul is bleeding through Let the melody, carry me to you 1st VERSE: It’s funny how The blackest cloud can fade back into the blue They only disappear when I'm with you On my darkest days When I'm seeing gray You know just what to do You take off my shades reveal sunny days Ohhhhh CHORUS: What a beautiful view(x3) Oh you’re beautiful Yes you’re beautiful Oh it’s beautiful Light, light This light flowing from your eyes Oh it's beautiful It’s a beautiful view (instrumental) 2ND VERSE: You flipped my wild world upside down Perspective’s turning new Now down is up and you and me equals two Getting lost inside, your big brown eyes There’s nothing I'd rather do I'm so hypnotized and mesmerized Ohhhhh CHORUS: What a beautiful view(x2) Honey looking at you Oh you’re beautiful Yes, you’re beautiful Oh it’s beautiful Light, light This light flowing from your eyes Oh it's beautiful It’s a beautiful view

Ruby Red Shoes Verse 1: Dancin’ with fireflies Under the starlit sky Up up, away it's true Just two clicks of my shiny shoes Pre chorus: I'm soarin’ higher, Just past cloud 9 Chorus: Get up, get out, get away Come on, fly with me Jump up, what's your fantasy? Sha--shake that sugar tree Do just what you wanna do, Just take a walk in my ruby red shoes Verse 2: Zoomed past the moon and stars Greetings from Jupiter and Mars Look for my “Land of Oz” Don’t care ‘bout that curtain cause The….. Pre chorus: Day breaks like thunder Bright rainbows under me Chorus Get up, get out, get away Come on, fly with me Jump up, what's your fantasy? Sha--shake that sugar tree Do just what you wanna do, Just take a walk in my ruby red shoes. (Instrumental) Chorus Get up, get out, get away Come on, fly with me Jump up, what's your fantasy? Shake, shake that sugar tree Do just what you wanna do, Just take a walk in my, Walk in my ruby red shoes.

Up in the Air (1st verse) It was hard to breathe Life was moving faster Trying to find my way Only finding after My feet had left the ground Now I’m soaring past All these old directions And I’m trying to see Beyond familiar action Don’t know where I’m going now... (pre-chorus) I’m excitedly scared All these changes, getting me prepared (Chorus) I’m all up in the air, from here Don’t know where this wind is gonna blow me Holding on to my prayers and tears Cause I know that in time, they’re gonna grow me Think I’m half way there Don’t know where there is I’m all up in the air… (Verse 2) Think it’s all control You got it figured out Maybe I need some change I need a turn around Could it be that I’m holdin’ me down Cause l’m beginning to find No matter how hard I try I’m not my journey’s master Let go of the timeline Learn to trust in the now (pre-chorus) I’m decidedly scared I’m hopeful, I’m getting somewhere (Chorus) Cause I’m all up in the air, from here Don’t know where this wind is gonna blow me Holding on to my prayers and tears Cause I know that in time, they’re gonna grow me Think I’m half way there Don’t know where there is I’m all up in the air. (Bridge) Just breath Free flyin now Letting go seems right somehow (Chorus) I’m all up in the air from here Don’t know where this wind is gonna blow me Holding onto my prayers and tears Cause I know that in time they’re gonna grow me Think I’m half way there Cause I’m all up in the air Think I’m almost there I’m all up in the air

Falling 03:49
Falling Verse 1 Wish I may, and wish I might Have this star I see tonight Laughing with me Feels like I’m dreaming Falling in his eyes Could this be the very start As something lovely captures my heart I’m drowning in this, beautiful bliss Under the night lit sky Chorus Falling in you Time moves slowly All that you do Draws me deeper down Caught in the rush Dreams are dancing All around us Life is changing now Don’t care if I trip Cause honey I’m slipping Just don’t catch me falling down Verse 2 Breathing in and breathing out This wonderful lift within me now No words exist to explain this Sweet love I’ve found inside And swaying to my strumming heart As music slowly begins to start Notes form a song, I’m singing along A romance lullaby Chorus Falling in you Time moves slowly All that you do Draws me deeper down Caught in the rush Dreams are dancing All around us Life is changing now Don’t care if I trip Cause honey I’m slipping Just don’t catch me falling (Bridge) Down in this wonderful spiral I never knew You’re the star that I wished on, my dream that is coming true Wish I may, wish I might, have this star I see tonight Chorus Caught in the rush Dreams are dancing All around us Life is changing now Don’t care if I trip Cause honey I’m slipping Just don’t catch me falling Just don’t catch me falling down

Don’t Write a Song About Me Verse 1 Things were good, Things looked right Never saw the sun set before it was night Guess I was taken by surprise How could you do this to me? You led me on like a dog to a bone But in the end, I was really alone The whole time I thought you would be mine But I guess I was wrong Pre-chorus Can’t believe I could be this naïve You seemed so sweet, but were merely a tease Opened my heart, left it fully exposed And so the storyline goes…. Chorus I took your lies And your silly little games Mixed in a beat I could tap my feet to Threw in my heart and a couple of strings Now take a look at what we got You played me good, You played me really well Now it’s time you danced to my new sound In the end I guess you should never say Just don’t write a song about me Verse 2 Should’ a known you’d get scared Like a bird that was startled you took to the air Fear was seared within your eyes Nesting was never your thing Guess it was clear, all along That with you the word “future” don’t measure so long Now it’s time to say goodbye Bye, bye, bye…..Go fly Pre-chorus Can’t believe I could be this naïve You seemed so sweet and troublesome free Opened my heart, left it fully exposed And so the storyline goes…. Chorus I took your lies And your silly little games Mixed in a beat I could tap my feet to Threw in my heart and a couple of strings Now take a look at what we got You played me good, You played me really well Now it’s time you danced to my new sound In the end, I guess I you should never say Just don’t write a song about….. Bridge/Rap Listen Listen closely Do you hear that sound? It’s pounding slowly It’s my heart beat And it’s breaking But would you ever know How much it’s aching Cause you smashed what love I had for you Because your heart It proved untrue And now I’m lost with words for you My thoughts are merely dust because they burned down too With us, our walls came tumbling And now I’m left here fumbling Around…..but I got news for you Your words won’t go unheard This song’s a tribute…. Chorus I took your lies And your silly little games Mixed in a beat I could tap my feet to Threw in my heart and a couple of strings Now take a look at what we got You played me good, You played me really well Now it’s time you danced to my new sound Cause in the end, I guess I you should never say…. In the end, I guess you should never say…. (tag) Don’t write a song about my cheating heart Don’t write a song about my wicked games Don’t write a song about my bad romance Don’t write a song that makes the whole world sing

Naive 04:43
Naive 1 verse My heart is waiting for the break I knew this day would come But I never fully pictured myself When all was said and done From months of time and energy I put toward me and you You took that hope And you took that trust And you went for something new Pre-chorus Oh….What can I say Why did you do me that way? Chorus And now… Why did I ever trust you Your words were just a lure To hook my naïve heart And how… Could you just easily turn away Without an ounce of apology I guess I really had you wrong So long, so long 2nd verse My world was finally making sense My heart was moving on The pain had slowly melted away I thought I had you gone But then I saw the two of you Your hands were intertwined I wrote my heart, then ripped up the page And the hurt was underlined Pre-chorus Oh….What can I say Why did you do me that way? Chorus And now… Why did I ever trust you Your words were just a lure To hook my naive heart And how…. Could you just easily turn away Without an ounce of apology I guess I really had you wrong So long, so long Bridge You took my heart and you threw it away Just like a sorry in a bad cliché I try to fight it, but my thoughts always betray me I try to go to a sunnier place, and get a little bit of inner space, But then, you got me crying again….crying, crying… Chorus And now… Why did I ever trust you Your words were just a lure To hook my naive heart And how… Could you just easily turn away Without an ounce of apology I guess I really had you wrong

When Pigs Fly Verse 1 So I’d dream about me and you Coming back and starting a new You saying, “I was dishonest and wrong, Sorry baby you were right all along.” Hoping for some change in your soul Promising not to let me go Perfect, like a princess Hey, hey Pre-chorus The clock ticked on My patience had gone I’m thinking to myself….. Chorus You’re like trying to teach a pig to fly Up in that ba-loo-loo sky You’re never gonna happen, but hey Why not try? You’re like waiting for the sunshine In the darkest time of night Twelve o’clock to be exact You’re never gonna happen It’s just fact Just a fact(2x) Oh, oh, but I still keep on dreamin’ Verse 2 So I’m guessing it’s all over and done Although running back to me would be fun So I’m gonna have to let you go, But my heart is saying no, no, no Why is this so hard to do? Cause all I’d get is the same old you Erasing all your dumb ol’ games Yay, yay Pre-chorus Time moves on I’m glad you’re gone Fixing you is like Chorus Trying to teach a pig to fly Up in that ba-loo-loo sky You’re never gonna happen, but hey Why not try? You’re like waiting for the sunshine In the darkest time of night Twelve o’clock to be exact You’re never gonna happen It’s just fact Just a fact(2x) But I still keep on dreamin’ Bridge Now I never said, that dreams didn’t come true Because they do, just not with you And fantasy can become reality It’s all about what prince you chose and the shoes you use (Chorus) I’m trying to teach a pig to fly In the blue sky….Oh, oh It’s like waiting for the sunshine In the darkest time of night Twelve o’clock to be exact… It’s just a fact, just a fact…Oh, oh… You’re never coming back (2x) Oh, oh Boy you’re never coming back

Talking to the Sky (Chorus) Show me something to lift me Out of this empty atmosphere Take me somewhere that frees me So all this doubt can disappear Give me a sign (1st verse) Talking to the sky Searching for an answer Silence in my life Are you even there? Waiting for a sign Help with second guessing Feeling unaligned Do you even care? (Chorus) Show me something to lift me Out of this empty atmosphere Take me somewhere that frees me So all this doubt can disappear Give me a sign I’m not talking to the sky Can you hear me? (2nd Verse) Tell me what I see Questioning this beating Heart inside of me Does it bleed the truth? Please help me to believe Sinking but still breathing Gotta hold on me And I'm dying to break free, break free….. (Chorus) Show me something to lift me Out of this empty atmosphere Take me somewhere that frees me So all this doubt can disappear Give me a sign I'm not talking to the sky (Bridge) Got a feeling, there’s another side Close to empty (Chorus) Show me something to lift me Out of this empty atmosphere Take me somewhere that frees me So all this doubt can disappear Give me a sign I’m not talking to the sky Can you hear me?

Calendar 03:36
Calendar- Written by Kelsey Lewis (1st verse) You got me sitting here thinking about What could be on your mind Then of course I’m wondering to myself Why you gotta be so stuck to mine My heart has never been One to jump or skip from its steady line So I guess it’s obvious to everyone else How knee deep I am this time (pre-chorus) Well it’s new and true I finally found someone to walk with And it’s you, yes it’s you Darling (Chorus) I miss those brown eyes The way they talk And whisper into mine I miss those starlit skies Where we spin our dreams And secrets, side by side ooooooOoooOoooo I miss your laugh and your smile Why couldn’t you stay for a while? You got me counting off the days (2nd verse) So I guess this is how it works The waiting game becomes your new best friend And finally you find yourself Daydreaming about How everything will hopefully end These memories keep floodin back Replaying themselves As if a cinema is in my head I’m hanging on your every word Like lines to a script Because this movie is no longer pretend (pre-chorus) Well it’s new and true Finally found someone to laugh with And it’s you, yes it’s you Darling (Chorus) I miss those brown eyes The way they talk And whisper into mine I miss those starlit skies Where we spin our dreams And secrets, side by side ooooooOoooOoooo I miss your laugh and your smile Why couldn’t you stay for a while? You got me counting off the days *….instrumental….* (bridge) I’m livin’ in lullabies As you sing me to sleep Over phone calls Late at night My heart stops when I hear you sigh And say “I miss you too Hope things are alright” OooooOooooOooo I miss your laugh and your smile Why couldn’t you stay for a while Why must you be so far away You got me counting off the days(3x)
