Original Songs

"Where Is Love?"

"Where is Love?"

I'm askin' all my friends.

Perhaps they'd recommend someone

Who's kind of funny, not so bad with money. 

​

"Where is Love?"

Is it so much to ask...

Is it too great a task...to find

Someone who's kind, not so hard of mind?

​

The lonely hours of long nights

Put blindin' tears in my eyes.

For I can't be the only one 

Who dreams of being loved.

Who longs to share the sunrise, 

And stars fading above. 

​

It's not that I can't stay here 

All by myself, let's be clear.

But I have love to share 

For nor and all eternity...

Surely there is someone

Who can share it with me?

​

"Where is Love?",

I quiz folks on the street.

Could they help me to meet 

Someone from my dreams?

Make It Real

Throw out your day dreamin', 

Start up your life schemin'. 

Throw our your hearts breakin', 

Life's made on chances taken. 

​

See that the sun's rising, 

No time for just cryin'. 

Go on and be the proof, 

Make no doubt Love's the truth.

​

Hold up your head higher

Reaching although tired.

You choose how you will feel, 

Go on and Make It Real. 

​

See that the sun's rising, 

No time for just cryin'. 

Go on and be the proof, 

Make no doubt Love's the truth.

No Broken Hearts (written with Shane Savala)

I rise...
Bird song comes to greet my ears,
But it's your voice
That I long to hear
While I lie here all alone...
No broken hearts at home.

To think,
We've been friends for all these years.
And you've shared with me
Each of your fears.
But you still fight them alone...
No broken hearts at home.

Oh, do you see me?
Oh, could it be me?
I can't fight this feeling anymore,
Oh please set me free.

It's no secret even if I tried,
I'm stuck loving you
Until I die.
So I'll stay here all alone...
No broken hearts at home.
No broken hearts at home.

Could It Be

Could it be 

That you were loving me

Long before I turned my eyes on you?

Hesitating, and then waiting

For your time?

​

From the first day

That we ever met, 

I was resolved that no one would get

Not the slightest, nor the brightest

Of my heart. 

​

But then you sweetly came to me, 

And you asked, "Could It Ever Be?...

That you would let me spend my life

Lovin' you, adoring you?"

​

And I asked, "Could It Ever Be?

That you see something in me.

And you would want to spend your life

Lovin' me, adoring me?"

​

If a cold heart can be woken, 

Even "smart rules" may be broken. 

Stir the fire of desire, 

Could It Be 

That you are teaching me...

To use my heart?

Shape Your Light

Can't wait to see your smile
Light up on this next Sunday morn.
You're not the only one
Who tries to be good all week long.

Right now you're so young in life,
And there's so many things to show you.

Can't wait tohold your books
As you walk up the steps to school.
The friends you'll make, the risks you'll take
Are all are yours for the making.

Right now you're so young in life,
And there's so many things to show you.

If I can help Shape Your Light
And teach you to do what's right,
Then the beauty and joy of life
Are yours.

Can't wait to share your joys,
And shield you from the heartbreaks too.
It won't be long 'til you're full grown
And I'm not near to you.

Sometimes I wish I
Could pause time and hold...
Onto each grain of sand,
Take my hand and we'll go.

If I can help Shape Your Light
And teach you to do what's right...

If I can help Shape Your Light
And teach you to do what's right,
Then the beauty and joy of life
Are yours.

"Get Up And Go"

Okay, you're ready

To stop goin' steady. 

So glad I was here

To help make it clear

​

That you:

Don't want a partner

You just want a lover

To call up at night

When you're alone.

​

Don't tell me you're jealous

Of the one who will wed me,

That they'll be a lucky so-and-so!

​

I don't wanna hear it!

How "wonderful" I am, 

Yet you cannot take my hand, no.

I don't wanna hear it!

It's okay for you to go, 

These compliments are just for show.

 

So Get Up And Go!

Get Up And Go!

​

Breathe (written with Shane Savala)

Change comes to be by my side, 

I try to buy a little more time. 

Is this the best that I have?

Thoughts like that 

Fade to black. 

​

When I dream of gold, sweetest melodies 

Lift my eyes so I can see...

And breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

​

It may not always come free,

But try to see with clarity. 

True though there's time for spending, 

You cannot choose the ending. 

Holding on to the need 

To know all that will be...won't do.

​

When I dream of gold, sweetest melodies 

Lift my eyes so I can see...

And breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

A Chance To Make You Mine

A stroll with you on Friday 'eve

Is all I need. 

A stroll with you would be divine. 

​

If you would only grant me 

Just an hour of your time, 

Then I would have 

A Chance to Make You Mine. 

​

For I've been waiting for you, 

Longing for you each night and every day. 

You never look my way

Like I dream.

​

And if you'd only see me, 

We two could be the ones 

To rule the world. 

I'm here to be your girl

For the rest of my days. 

​

If you would only grant me 

Just an hour of your time, 

Then I would have 

A Chance to Make You Mine. 

Echoes (written with Shane Savala)

Views, views of the hills and of the trees
Flow, flow to me nightly in my dreams.
And I hear your voice calling
Across the waves
That crash to the shore.

But they're just echoes
of the voice you have no more,
And I know you're gone,
But still your song goes on.

Left to me
Is the ghost of you...
Go on and live
Like you want me to...

But they're just echoes
of the voice you have no more,
And I know you're gone,
But still your song goes on.
