When Morning Comes (WMC)
I can see new horizons with you What I feel can't be described but
it's true Hold me close this feeling is deeper than any sea Wrap you
up in a gentle embrace and together we fall asleep When morning comes
I'll watch the sun rise with you I'll celebrate a brand new day with
you I can see the morning breeze playing with your hair Tell me places
you'd like to see and I'll take you there Looking in your eyes I love
you even more Another day with you is something to be thankful for
When morning comes I’ll watch the sun rise with you I’ll celebrate
a brand new day with you When morning comes...when morning comes I’ll
watch the sun rise with you When morning comes...when morning comes
I’ll watch the sun rise and celebrate a brand new day with you Ah
with you...with you, you, you, you...ah with you
Tropical Travellin' (TT)
Well, I could never change the way I feel inside of me I see your
smile starin’ back at me And a part of you it’s a part of me You’re
in my blood oh, can’t ya see ‘cause Well, I’ve been travellin’ down
this road Don’t know what I’m gonna do But, I sure do wish I could
have someone like you And I won’t let those people haunt me I won’t
let that money taunt me But, I’ve got so far to go So far to go…so
far to go, yeah And every place we play and every face that I see
I love ya girl more everyday And a part of you is a part of me You’re
in my blood oh, can’t ya see ‘cause Well, I’ve been travellin’ down

Not 4 You (N4U)
I used to wish day after day Some alien ship would come and take me
away I'd touch the moon, taste the milky way I'd send a letter to
you from outer space I ain't never been there...That may be true Some
things are worth the wait...I don't know about you You never know
until ya do I used to dream 'bout, 'bout bein' a star I'd sign a million
dollar deal at a local bar Take a ride home in my stretch limo car
Maybe I'd think of you, but, chances are Dreams come true but not
for you x 3 You never know until ya do! I used to think I would never
die But, now I lay here sick, and I wonder why Just lift me up to
take one last look at the sky Well, it wasn’t much but, ya know I
gave it a try...c’mon Dreams…come true…but, not for you…Not for you
Rap: Dreams come true but not for you Because you’re tellin’ other
people Whatcha thinkin’ they should do Until ya walk a mile in another
man’s shoes Keep your dreams to yourself and make ‘em come true! Dreams
come true but not for you Dreams come true but not for you Keep your
dreams to yourself and make ‘em come true!
God is Green (GIG)
A little lady who lived down the road She lost her house and all that
she knows Her old man, he just passed away Took it all straight to
the grave Took it all straight to the grave Too many payments to go
on the house The bank foreclosed and it through the lady out Well,
it’s a cold and heartless machine They’re the Gods of Green, oh Gods
of Green…mmmmmm A young man as he was walking through a park He was
assaulted by strangers in the dark They beat him bloody, took his
wallet and ran A dozen roses lay trampled down by his lifeless hand
He had a long day at work He couldn’t wait to get home But, the demons
of green left two kids fatherless And his young wife a widow Whoa,
his young wife became a widow Ooh, ooh, ooh God is green – it’s so
obscene So get on your knees if YOUR God is green Ooh, ooh, whoa,
yeah, mmm One day as I was walking in the woods My source of serenity
I noticed I was surrounded by so many shades of green And I thought
God IS green Paints a beautiful scene I got on my knees and I thanked
God for green
Change ( C )
Lately, lately, lately, lately, lately it ain't seemed the same Well
I can't recall how we got to be strangers And I can't remember your
name I lay down over here Shut my eyes to fall asleep dreaming and
dreaming can make you aware of the change Truth is a beacon and shining
so brightly But, we have been blinded by faith Open your eyes and
maybe you'll see That this world is the hell that we've made I lay
down over here Shut my eyes to fall asleep dreaming and dreaming can
make you aware if you'll change Ah Oh yeah Ah Oh yeah All things are
carried away Flying upon the wings of change Lately, lately, lately,
lately, lately it's harder to breathe This great world of ours well
it keeps getting smaller So, now we can't have all we need...Come
lay down over here Shut your eyes you can fall asleep dreaming and
dreaming will take you away Make you aware...take us away from the
change
Need (N)
’m the one you want I’m the one you need I’m what makes you cry in
need Be with me Don’t let us be apart Come to me Fill my loving arms
Love can be strange Sweet and bitter pain Now that I’ve crossed the
line I find you on my mind nearly all the time You came to me all
through the summer And secretly you became my lover I woke from the
dead to find you in my head Looking back it seems you were always
there Only in my dreams, sayin’ I’m the one you want I’m the one you
need I’m what makes you cry in need I’m what makes you cry in need
I’m what makes you cry...

Stuck in My Shell (SIMS)
What do ya see when you look at me Do ya see a man full of hopes and
dreams Well, can you read between the lines Flowing over this face
of mine Can you look at me Really look at me Tell me what you see
How many times do I have to ex-plain I'm not afraid to feel the pain
Makes me feel so alive To live out here on the edge of time Nobody
knows Nobody cares I'm all alone here Stuck in my shell And noone
can break me I've been through hell Stuck in my shell Shadows grow
so long out here Lend me your ear I’ll tell you something Something
you will never You will never forget- Oh I'm all alone here Stuck
in my shell And noone can break me I've been through hell Stuck in
my shell We’re all alone here stuck in our shells And noone can break
free we’ve got to go through hell stuck in our shell stuck in our
shells
Three Weeks (3W)
In the beginning it was perfection But, angry winds came and blew
it all away Now, no words could ever change your mind And no pill
can ease my pain I believed in you Even though somewhere along the
line We lost faith in each other And I'm slowly losing my mind Over
these three weeks without you Three weeks without your love Three
weeks without you...oh Now, day to day never seemed so long As these
days without you Nothing left but an empty space And a lonely dream
of you Now that it's gone you'll see what you mean to me But, for
now all that's left is three weeks of loneliness Three Weeks without
you three weeks without your love three weeks without you Are you
ever coming home Three Weeks without you
Karmic Blue (KB)
You know I didn't mean to hurt you But that's the nature of this game
Nobody said it would be easy And you've got noone left to blame I
think it's alright to be free And it's alright to be me...You know
I didn't mean to hurt you But, now I really just don't care Under
these Karmic circumstances that led us here I hear ya screamin' it
ain't fair I really don't think that you know me And you haven't looked
at yourself But, let me tell ya baby Ya know I didn't mean to hurt
you You know I didn't mean to hurt you You know I didn't mean to hurt
you You know I didn't mean to hurt you
Reborn ( R )
I’ve got this beautiful room sharing it with myself You with a beautiful
face out smilin’ with someone else I’ve got this wonderful view it’s
clouded up with tears And you’re out there, it’s tearing me down Alone
I face my fears Christmas eve I wished you were here Christmas day
I was alone New Years Eve you should’ve been with me New Years Day
I was Reborn Baby, I know I did you wrong But, doing me wrong won’t
make things right You wanted to think that you are better than me
Your actions speak so loudly “set you free” Christmas eve I wished
you were here Christmas day I spent alone New Years Eve you should’ve
been with me New Years Day I was Reborn Does it make you happy Are
ya feelin’ kinda high So, where will ya go now for the thrill of the
kill Ya can’t kill me ‘cause I’ve already died
Broken Heart Diet (BHD)
I’m on a broken heart diet losing weight Gettin’ real skinny some
say I look great But, I’m losing you...I think I’d rather be fat!!!
I Really can’t sleep and I don’t want to eat Feelin’ kinda blue so
I shuffle my feet All through the day and even all night, that’s right
I’ve been wondering baby, how do ya feel Does the guy you’re seein’
just give you the thrill That ya used to get when you were with me
Aw, won’t ya tell me? We had lots of good times and we could shake
n bake But, I really feel bad since I burned the cake Oh, baby...won’t
ya please forgive me? Oh, please forgive me... What I’m trying to
say girl is that I want you back And if ya don’t come soon it’s a
heart attack Oh, baby, baby, ba-baby come back to me Cause I’m missing
you and if you’re missing me The kitchen’s still open so c’mon let’s
eat Call me Hungry Jack...I’m hungry for your love I’m on a broken
heart diet and losing weight Gettin’ real skinny don’t feel so great
I’m starving baby for your love
Breathe (B)
Bye bye wipe the tears from your eyes Maybe it's better this way I
never wanted to let you go Now I’ve got to let you know Oh, baby,
baby you know it ain't that bad The words I said to you I said when
I was mad Why does it have to be over when all we really need Is a
little space to sit back and breathe Lonely lonely oh, so lonely nights
without you Are ya thinking of me now Or are you busy with someone
new Oh, baby, baby why does it have to end Just forgive and forget
the bad I miss my friend Why does it have to be over when all we really
need Is a little space to sit back and breathe Hello again Been so
long since I've seen your face around here How has life been treating
you Sometimes at night I see your face in a dream of you Why does
it have to be over when all we really need Is a little space a little
time To sit back and free our minds Why does it have to be over when
all we really need Is a little space to sit back and breathe
DESTINY (D)
I went right to it…It took me through the sea of time Into the ageless
realm of knowing The road is winding…Running through me like a snake
Took me to the Mountainside One voice said climb it…Another voice
said don't you dare I won't give in to this fear…keeps me down, keeps
me here So I journey to the light Can't see nothing in the darkness
of this night Stars are hiding, the moon is crying To me the message
is clear Dogs are barking I'll share my journey with the pack They
can run ahead to see, still they cry to be free I'll swim the river
Hold my breath, touch the sand Break the surface, breathe again! Still
I'm moving...Stopping only when I die Dreams begin and never end...So
I let my spirit fly So I journey to the light Played the game of life
and so I've earned this flight Climbing higher, ever higher Reaching
out to touch the sun Now I know you Fragile shell with shaman soul
Nothing left to do Nothing left to say Nothing left to see Nothing
left except my destiny My destiny Oh, destiny
