The Voice on Wind
04:00
|

|
The flowers show me lots of things / they bring beauty and pollen for the bees / they teach me to rise up from the ground / to coax my heart back around
i learn so much from the trees / how to stand tall but still move with ease / they hold the secrets of the land / deeply connected where they stand
*listen to the voice on wind / listen to the rain / watch the smoke drift away / can you feel the change
i hear the whisper of the rain / the downpours always bring the change / running in rivers through my heart / cleaning so i know where to start
*listen to the voice on wind / listen to the rain / watch the smoke drift away / can you feel the change

Back to the Heart
05:00
|
|||
|
There’s an ocean inside of me / waves of emotion move like the sea
rolling, flowing, like water through my veins / misery and darkness got a hold of my brain
*I gotta get back to my heart, to my heart
There’s a current underneath / below that ocean, it’s steady
I dip my toes in / take a look within / I find my home
I see the flowers and all the crystals, I’m not alone
*and I am back to my heart, to my heart
~We’re hear to play / love / dream / build
*Get back to my heart, to my heart

Life is Teaching
03:31
|
|||
|
Who is teaching / life is teaching / how are we learning / we are living
every being you are are seeing / shines a light on what you’re freeing
*find your teacher here in life / find your teacher there in death
we are saying yes to our pain / feeling is healing / the catalyst for change / so feel it all / hear the ancient call
*find your teacher here in life / find your teacher there in death

Be Set Free
04:11
|
|||
|
It’s delicate, this thing inside of me / runs through my blood, goes as deep as the sea
so I will let go of this thing inside of me / I’ll give it wings so it can be set free
saying goodbye is sometimes hard / but I must cut the cords so I can fall apart
and come together just as I was meant to be / as my own person, i am sovereign and free
*and I am free

Just Be Yourself
05:06
|
|||
|
There’s no one quite like you / you are one of a kind / in a field of flowers / you’re the one that caught my eye
*just be yourself
Your unique expression / is what makes you into you / stay on your own path / and always stick to your truth
*just be yourself
There’s no right and no wrong / for how you should live your life / follow your own heart and be your own guide
*just be yourself
~There’s no one / quite like you / there’s no one / who can save you / it’s you
*just be yourself

Dreaming into Being
05:01
|
|||
|
Who are you / never mind / nevermind
you are beyond / your mind / your mind
surrender to the flow / to the flow
release your fears / let go / let go
*you are dreaming your self into being / so let your visions take you where you want to go
your heart is your best guide / your best guide
when you feel confused / look inside / look inside
don’t doubt yourself believe / just believe
in your power to receive / to receive
*you are dreaming your self into being / so let your visions take you where you want to go

Just Cause
04:00
|
|||
|
Just ‘cause I haven’t written / does that mean I can’t write / just ‘cause I don’t have wings / does that mean I can’t fly
*oooo
Just ‘cause I don’t have it all / does that mean I never will / or am I just in waiting / keeping quiet and still
*oooo
If I don’t bare my soul / does that mean I don’t exist / or am I in your constellation / invisibly connected
*ooo
~keep on staying open / with room inside / room for all your wishes / for when they arrive

Now You're Here
04:49
|
|||
|
I’ve been waiting for you / I was searching for you / now you’re here and I’m here in the now / we found each other somehow
our lives intwine in the best way / and we drink from the vine / it’s how we pray / now you’re here and I’m here in the now / we found each other somehow
the way you accept all of me / reminds me that I am free / our ship sails strong on the sea / woven from threads of peace / now you’re here and I’m here in the now / we found each other somehow

Like a River Over Us
03:42
|
|||
|
How do we know that time has passed / is it moving slow or fast
I can see the plants have grown / and how our house became a home
The moon changes every night / moving from the dark to light
I can feel it in my womb / I can see it from our bedroom
*passing like a river over us / spreading out like roots below us / but now is where we exist / and now is all there is
My own hands are looking older / with each year gone I’m feeling bolder
Learning who I really am / underneath all the programs
*passing like a river over us / spreading out like roots below us / but now is where we exist / and now is all there is

There’s a place just behind everything you thought was real
Will you step inside and see truth revealed?
*and it’s dark and it’s light and it’s day and it’s night
it’s the everything, it’s the nothing, at the same time, it’s beyond time
We all feel like we’re alone swimming in our separate seas
We’re just searching for our home, somewhere we can feel at peace
*and it’s dark and it’s light and it’s day and it’s night
~look around, you’re not alone
take a hand, let’s go home
*and it’s dark and it’s light and it’s day and it’s night
