Clouds

When you look at the clouds

What do you see?

Can you even imagine

What they could be?

 

When you look at the clouds

What do you see?

And do you think those fluffy clouds see me?

 

When you look at the clouds

What do you see?

(I can see a spaceship)

Can you even imagine

What they could be?

(I can see a dove)

 

When you look at the clouds

What do you see

(I can see a butterfly)

And do you think those fluffy clouds see me?

 

Think of all the possibilities

Imagine, imagine

All the possibilities

Dream

 

When you look at the clouds

What do you see?

(I can see a lion)

Can you even imagine

What they could be?

(I can see a swan)

 

When you look at the clouds

What do you see?

(I can see a daffodil)

And do you think those fluffy clouds see me?

 

When you look in your heart

What do you see?

Can you even imagine

All you can be?

 

When you look in your heart

What do you see?

And can you think, imagine, dream

All the possibilities

What do you see?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Try Everything

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh (4xs)

 

I missed up tonight

I lost another fight

Lost to myself..but I’ll just start again

I keep falling down

I keep on hitting the ground

But I always get up, now, to see what’s next

 

Birds don’t just fly

They fall down..and get up

Nobody learns without getting it wrong

 

I won’t give up, no I won’t give in

Til I reach the end, and then I’ll start again

No, I won’t leave I want to try everything

I want to try even though I could fail       (2xs)

 

 

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Try everything (3xs)

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

 

Look how far you’ve come

You filled your heart with love

Baby you’ve done enough take a deep breath

Don’t beat yourself up

No need to run so fast

Sometimes we come last, but we did our best

 

I won’t give up, no I won’t give in

Til I reach the end, and then I’ll start again

No, I won’t leave I want to try everything

I want to try even though I could fail       (2xs)

 

I’ll keep on making those new mistakes

I’ll keep on making them everyday

Those new mistakes

 

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Try everything (3xs)

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

 

Try everything….

 

 

 

 

Rockstar

 There’s a girl in the backyard

Banging on her drum,

Sitting on the green grass

Laughing at the sun

Singing, “Ah, ha, ha, I just wanna be a rockstar.”

 

There’s a boy in the backseat

Singing to this song

Playing on the radio

Knowing he’s the one

Singing, “Ah, ha, ha, I just wanna be a rockstar.”

 

Singing, “Ah, ha, ha, I just wanna be a rockstar.”

There’s a girl on a treetop

Looking at the stars,

Waiting for a touchdown

Coming in from Mars

Thinking, “Is there anybody out there?”

 

There’s a boy in his bedroom

Playing his guitar

Searching for the answer

Buried in his heart,

Thinking, “Ah, ha, ha, is there anybody out there?”

 

Singing, “Ah, ha, ha, is there anybody out there?”

Ah, ha, ha, is there anybody out there?

 

If there’s a meaning, can you show me a sign?

The more I look, it just gets harder to find

The world is spinning, and I wanna know why

 

And we’re all getting older

Wishing we were young

Hanging on the memory of what we would become

Singing, “Ah, ha, ha, I was born to be a rockstar.”

Singing, “Ah, ha, ha, I was born to be a rockstar.”

Singing, “Ah, ha, ha, I was born to be a rockstar.”

    

If there’s a meaning, can you show me a sign?

The more I look, it just gets harder to find

The world is spinning, and I wanna know why

 

And maybe we will never figure it out

I got a feeling that’s what life’s all about

I’m learning anything is possible now

 

Take a ticket and get off the line

(4xs)

 

So take a ticket and get off the line

Take a ticket and get off the line

So take a ticket and get off the line

Take a ticket and get off the line

Take a ticket and get off the line

 

Take a ticket and get off the line

           (Ah, ha, ha I was born to be a rockstar)

Take a ticket and get off the line

Take a ticket and get off the line…BORN TO BE A ROCKSTAR!!!

I was born to be a rockstar!!!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For Good

I’ve heard it said

That people come into our lives

For a reason

Bringing something we must learn

And we are led

To those who help us most to grow

If we let them

And we help them in return

 

Well, I don’t know if I believe that’s true

But I know I’m who I am today

Because I knew you…

 

Like a comet pulled from orbit

As it passes a sun

Like a stream that meets a boulder

Halfway through the wood

Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better?

But because I knew you

I have been changed for good

 

It well may be

That we will never meet again

In this moment

So let me say before we part

So much of me

Is made of what I learned from you

You’ll be with me

Like a handprint on my heart

 

And now whatever way our stories end

I know you have re-written mine

By being my friend…

 

Like a ship blown from its mooring

By a wind off the sea

Like a seed dropped by a skybird

In a distant wood

Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better?

But because I knew you

Because I knew you

I have been changed for good

 

And just to clear the air

I ask forgiveness

For the things I’ve done, you blame me for

But then, I guess we know

There’s blame to share

And none of it seems to matter anymore

 

Like a comet pulled from orbit

As it passes the sun

Like a stream that meets a boulder

Halfway through the wood

 

Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better?

I do believe I have been changed for the better

And because I knew you…

Because I knew you…

I have been changed ….for good…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, How Lovely

Oh how lovely 

Is the evening

Is the evening

When the bells are sweetly ringing

Sweetly ringing

Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong

(4xs)

 

 

 

 

 

Take On the World

I've been waitin'
For a day like this to come
Struck like lightnin'
My heart's beatin' like a drum
On the edge of somethin' wonderful
Face to face with changes
What's it all about?
Life is crazy
But I know I can work it out
'Cause I got you to live it with me
I feel all right, I'm gonna take on the world
Light up the stars, I've got some pages to turn
I'm singin' oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I've got a ticket to the top of the sky
I'm comin' up, I'm on the ride of my life
I'm singin' oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Take on the world, take on the world
Take on the world
Take on the world, take on the world
Take on the world
Puzzle pieces
Throw them up into the air
Taking chances
Moments happen everywhere
And I got you to live them with me
I feel all right, I'm gonna take on the world
Light up the stars, I've got some pages to turn
I'm singin' oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

I've got a ticket to the top of the sky
I'm comin' up, I'm on the ride of my life
I'm singin' oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Take on the world, take on the world
Take on the world
Take on the world, take on the world

Flyin' high
I won't look down
Let my fears fall to the ground
I feel all right, I'm gonna take on the world
Light up the stars, I've got some pages to turn
I've got a ticket to the top of the sky
I'm comin' up, I'm on the ride of my life
I feel all right, I'm gonna take on the world
Light up the stars, I've got some pages to turn
I'm singin' oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I've got a ticket to the top of the sky
I'm comin' up, I'm on the ride of my life
I'm singin' oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Take on the world, take on the world
Take on the world
Take on the world, take on the world
Take on the world

A pretty little raven at the bird bandstand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
They started goin' steady and bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole

Hoppin' and a-boppin' and a-singin' his song
All the little birds on Jay Bird Street
