Follow, Follow your heart.
Put your horse before your cart; fuel the passion from the start.
Follow, Follow your heart.
Follow, Follow your mind.
When you keep your head aligned, everything should turn out fine.
Follow, Follow your mind.
Don't let your love go down, it's tough to hold on to it.
Don't let your love go down, whatever it takes to get through it.
Just hold on to your dreams, sometimes it's harder than it seems.
Don't let your love go down, no matter what it means.
What it means…there's no in between. It's your carrot on a string. When it gets down to it, just put yourself into it - You know that you'll get through it….
Follow, Follow your soul.
Your heart & mind & soul, let your conscience keep you whole.
Follow, Follow your soul.
I Think I'll Fly
c.Robin
over & over i run on this treadmill chasing a target that's moving too fast.
dreaming of soaring of blue skies above me. reaching, i touch only glass.
but there's no stairway here to climb. no other way up, i think i'll fly.
inside & outside, a bus ride, a train ride & just when i'm going i'm coming again.
breathing air drained of all oxygen, I press my face to the glass.
but there's no ladder here to climb, no other way up, i think i'll fly.
no one can hold be down, just one hit more & I'll feel high. so high.
but there's no mountain here to climb. no other way up, i think i'll fly.
Blue Sky Down
c. Robin/Eveland
Your heart on a string, your eyes tell me everything.
This life's as sweet as honey, each drop worth more than money.
But you seem soat peace. Peace I can't find
I don't want to hear it - that the end is nearing.
Cry for me now
You've been a friend to the end.
Cry for me now
Just lay your heart in my hands
And tear my blue sky down.
Our plans for our garden
You won't be there to see them
I'm so mad you're leaving.
Hold your head high; hold your dreams tight
And pray when I die that we'll meet again.
Blue Bird
c. Robin
I'm a bluebird, Oh the debt I've yet to pay
If I laugh, if I sing, there's no one listening
I will pay the price for wings.
And I am soaring my wings take me high
And I am soaring the winds they sigh
Bluebird - Oh the debt I've yet to pay
For I cry all alone in a world hard as stone
And I'll pay the price for wings.
Bluebird, Oh - I will pay the price for wings
Promised Land
c. Robin/Hartman
If I told you my dreams would you think that I'd lost my mind,
Say it couldn't be so.
If I were down on my knees attempting to pray, would you laugh or join me ,
Travel my way
And walk a thousand miles to find my promised land….
Promised Land, could it be so far away?
Promised Land, I can pray I'll live there one day.
Where all would be safe & all would be free unbound from greed
And all would take care of the young & their old, the sick and the weak.
All would abide, stand side by side.
I would walk a thousand miles to find my promised land….
Year and a Day
c. Robin/Eveland
I find it so amazing, how lost I am to you. Honestly – I never saw it coming.
You've become obsession devouring heart & soul. It was not my intention, but now I'm too far gone. How can it be that you will leave?
Holding on here & gone, just a year and a day.
I cannot stop your changing, I cannot make you stay.
But I can say – That will not keep me from trying.
I press my face and breathe into your cast-off clothes, and go a little crazy -
The thought of letting you go.
But for me it never ends – no. Part of me is gone again, Oh always with you.
But when you go, take me with you…if just in your dreams.
Eye of the Storm
c. Pittel
Oh look...Just look at me, hear what I say
You can't go on living this way
You're just bringing everyone down, you know.
And hear-Just hear all you friends laugh at you
It's funny but that's nothing new, you know.
What makes you so fine, I just want to know
I don't need your lines or your silly show
All you ever do is just think of you
All you ever say is just let me play
In the eye of the storm
And you...
You're spending so much of your time
Just knocking back glasses of wine
And showing up just to be seen, I fear.
But look...
The world doesn't care what you do
And the only one watching is you
And nobody cares where you've been out here.
Heartless Love
c. Robin/Keefner
Whispers & wine, ignoring signs,
I hoped the sun might always shine.
But you don't play fair. Cheat at solitaire, not in truth or dare.
And all of the lies
Now that I'm aware
Fall into despair.
How can you call this
Heartless war - Holy Love
Heartless love - Holy War
Out of blinded rage, turn another page
Of this war that we now wage.
As tensions grow, I hear the voice below
And watch the fires grow.
Now all of the time
Bullets go astray,
Fallen every day.
Undone
c. Robin/Eveland
Fall into the landslide, surrender flesh & bone.
Land into my heartache, feel my faith break.
Never look back, never look back now
Never own what you can denounce
What's done can't be undone.
Never look back it'll take you down
Never steal my hope, never hold me down
Your truth has come undone.
Touch my desperation, then wash your hands clean.
Lead me into your transgression, I'll be your confession.
Too late to live, too late to give, too late to drown myself in holy water
Too late to learn, too late to burn. Too late to learn to be my father's daughter
Believing in a higher order, turn a blind eye, turn the other cheek.
Pray for my salvation. I'll be your damnation.
Little Stars
c. Robin/Eveland
Long ago & far away I was all alone.
I kissed a lot of slimy frogs, then found a prince to call my own.
These castle walls echoed with too much silence inside -
Longing for the sound of laughter, filled these walls with joy & pride.
Twinkle twinkle little star how I've prayed for all you are.
Up above the world so high, you're the love that lights my nights.
Then I had my little lamb her little heart as pure as gold
Everywhere that I went that little lamb was sure to go.
Even though she's all we wished for, all we could have hoped
It would make my heart so sad my little lamb was all alone.
Hi ho the merry O & so it goes. Hi ho the merry O on & on it goes …
Touch down in Neverland.
1 and1 is 2, and 2plus 2 makes 4. 1-2-3-4…..
And we all lived happily ever after!
Medicine Ball
c. Robin/Ferrara
Live your life full of elegant sin; nice girls won't ever let you in.
They all know just where you've been. Boy, you're such a drag.
The bigger you are the harder you fall, you carry yourself like a medicine ball
When you're gone I'm nothing at all. Boy, you're such a drag.
Ah, you're gonna pick me up,
You're the only one who could ever pick me up.
No..You're gonna let me down,
You're the only one who could keep me comin' round.
Balancing worlds of shadow & grace, you lift your head & show your face.
You put the mighty in their place. Boy, you're such a drag.
The bigger you are the harder you fall, you carry yourself like a medicine ball
And work me down to nothing at all. Boy, you're such a drag.
All around the world nations know you.
They buy & sell your soul, but no one owns you.
But what you do to me is ecstasy.
Will You Be There
c. Robin
When you stand in this darkened room and you see the lights
Will you be there soon?
When you hear the music start, do you feel the beat
Does it drive you heart?
Turn around, oh just turn away.
Once you dream, you'll be there to stay.
Do you want to be there, do you really see it there?
Do you want to be there, will you be there?
Never show what you feel inside, in the light there's a place to hide
So you try to make it real somehow, living only for the here and now.
You are here but not here to stay
Just like me -You may fade away
When you're falling, falling -You're falling apart
When you're singing, singing -You sing from the heart.
I Bleed
c. Robin
Calling -Can she hear me? I will never know her name.
Can she hear me as I cry, I will remember always.
Can she hear, and does she know I will not be whole.
And I bleed all alone. I will not be whole, for a child I'll never know I bleed.
Falling - Into silence, it wraps me sorrow. Its cool water salted with tears -
If ever I emerge, I will remember always.
It's so quiet here. In the gray light where I know her spirit rests
She'll find her way home to me.
Until I die, I will miss everything I would have had.
I will never know all that she would mean to me. But I will remember always.
There are times I can feel, almost feel her spirit next to me.
There are so many things I will never know.
But I know that I will never be whole again.
