1: No Such Thing written by danielle vaughn | copyright 2012 (ascap) Run past the old, worn barn / Break into a run ‘cause I heard it’s haunted / Run fast, the ghosts mean harm / They love a thrill and my sanity’s wanted / It feels dark in the middle of the day / when the old womans laughing at me from the oth- er side / If you’re stone cold dead / Why’m I listening to you anyway / Run down the creaky old stairs / Cellar of my past, hurry find what / I’m looking for / Brush past memories that last / Shivers up my spine I forge what I’m looking for / Some- thing in the corner is laughing at me Shadows shifting with a wicked grin Want to follow me around / Like they know something, know where I’ve been If you’re only in my head / Why’ve you got this hold on me / I’ve gotta shake this underlying dread / Was there ever any such thing... / There’s no such thing as you I don’t look at the scary scare-crowe When I walk by, I swear I hear a sound / Corn field rows and spiders on my toes / But I’m gonna burn you to the ground / Instead of flight, I’m ready for a fight / Fear only has the power I give it, I’m learning / Light the flame, you are just a game / I claim victory while I’m watching you burning / You’d think that by getting older / I could stop looking over my shoulder / Makes me blind to what lies ahead / When you’re hanging onto reason by a very thin thread

Rocketship 03:49
written by danielle vaughn | copyright 2012 (ascap) 2: ROCKETSHIP YOU’RE IN A ROCKETSHIP AND I CLIMBED ABOARD / I FELT THE THRILL OF YOUR KISS AND WANTED MORE / SOMEHOW, I CONVINCED YOU THAT I CAN BE BRAVE TOO / THAT I KNOW WHAT I’M DOING BUT I’M ONLY A FOOL. / I MIGHT CRASH, I MIGHT BURN, AND I STILL HAVE SCARS FROM THE LAST TIME / I’VE NEVER BEEN THIS HIGH, THIS FAST, BEFORE / THERE’LL BE NO MISSION CONTROL, IF I’M LEFT FLOATING OUT THERE ALL ALONE / NO PARACHUTE LANDING FOR ME, AND I DON’T HAVE WINGS OF MY OWN / I COULD STAY ON THE GROUND SAFE AND SOUND / AND HOPE THIS FEELING SUBSIDES / OR START THE COUNTDOWN AND BUCKLE UP / FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE RIDE. / THIS TRIP UN-STEADIES MY HAND / I’M FINDING MY COURAGE, DON’T WANNA LAND / NOW WE’VE PASSED UP THE MOON / WON’T BE COMING BACK DOWN ANYTIME SOON / ALL I SEE IS STAR-LIT FACES / AND I LOVE HOW YOUR LOVE ERASES / ANY WORRIES I MIGHT FEEL / WAY UP HERE WITH YOU, TIME STANDS STILL...

Pruning Time 04:15
written by danielle vaughn | copyright 2012 (ascap) 3: what a rose would say at Pruning Time It happens fast, the agony / cutting deep inside of me / Until I find myself completely shaken. / I lose my balance, I hold my breath It doesn’t stop, all I can think is this’ll be the death, this’ll be the death of me. / Na na Na na Na na Na na Na na – Here we go again / La la La la La la La la La la – It doesn’t ever end Na na Na na Na na – There’s nothing left / When it hurts so deep I wonder how I’ll ever make it through / I wanna run, I wanna hide but I’ve got to think about my pride / and deep deep down I know this’ll make me stronger. / Underneath this messy mess / It hurts like hell, I do confess Time to dig in my heels, if it kills me, and stand my ground. / And finally I see it, eyes change their point of view / To the landscape as a whole, forest, trees, and flowers too / And finally I see it, a garden always growing Seeds are sowing, winds are blowing, clouds are snowing, rivers are flowing...

Deep Voices 03:55
copyright 2012 (ascap) 4: DEEP VOICES Once there was this passage across the great ocean / Then there were the chains and fields and muddy rivers flowin’ Now listen to the breeze just past the fields / Listen to the breeze just past the trees and up those hills / They sing in deep voices, Singing deeper than the words They sing in deep voices, the saddest songs I’ve ever heard / Once there was a black crowe, he tells the red bird / Then the red bird tells the robin what he heard / Now the robin tells her babies sto- ries from the fields / Now the robin tells her babies what strange fruit those fields yield / I have dreams of better days when I look into my baby’s eyes / Those eyes, those cries, that’s where my courage lies, So I’ll do anything – to stay alive. / First you feel your beating heart pushing through the skin / Then you hear the music rising from within Now listen to your soul, sing with meaning, every word / Sing your songs like prayers as though it’s your last words / Sing in deep voices, Sing deeper than the words/ Sing in deep voices, sing as though it’s your last words

5 : fallen for you Written by Danielle Vaughn, William Shakespeare and Emily Dickinson copyright 2012 (ASCAP), Public Domain You can doubt the stars are fire / You can doubt truth to be a liar / but never doubt this / feel it when we kiss / how I have fall- en for you / You can doubt the mountains will stand / You can doubt the oceans to be land but never doubt this / feel it in my kiss / how I have fallen for you / When even the daffo- dils unveil themselves of the morning dew / I will never fall out of love with you / You can doubt there’s salt in the sea / You can doubt the force of gravity / but never doubt this / everytime we kiss / how I have fallen for you

Sing To Me 03:21
(with Dustin Christensen) Written by Danielle Vaughn | copyright 2012 (ASCAP) 6: Sing to Me I know a handsome man, who, when he’s on a stage / It’s as if my heart is freed from it’s cage / When he sings and really makes that joyful noise / He’s not like all the rest, all the other silly boys / I can not explain it, how my head starts spinning ‘round / You won’t hear me complain once my feet barely touch the ground Sing to me, sing to me / Ba da da ba ba , Ba da da ba dee So sweet! / When he sings to me / He puts the girls to fren- zy with his swingin’ style / I’m not the only one seeing a wedding aisle / To be his blushing bride to be / All the pretty girls thinking romantically / Here I go again, how he sets my heart to dance / Don’t want to just be friends now that I’ve found my true romance / It’s irrational – (don’t make no sense) / It’s unfashionable – (but in my own defense) / He’s irresistible - ( profoundly intense) / I mean no offense to the better senses of the highly sensible... it’s just that when he...

7: The Balloon Song All the smiles and all the laughter, Little kids and their happy ever afters / And a balloon set free with it’s invisible wings / The candle glow and lit up faces, Make a wish and see the places we’ll go / The dreams we dream are such precious little things..... / Never knew how fast it goes, Never knew how the darkness closes in Until the time comes to let go / Someone standing there with a pin, something causes the air to grow thin, / The dreams we dream are such fragile little things..... Clouds float by slow and lazy / Birds chirping back and forth in song / These clouds could really make you crazy / But I could stay up here all day long / The wreckage of feeling lost, Failure comes at such a cost / Mine have been like poison and medicine / But there’s no way I’d ever trade, lessons learned for an easier way / The dreams we dream are such perilous little things..... / Promise me you won’t forget, Dreams don’t fly among regret / Once you set it free, it has invisible wings Made of triumph and setbacks and sorrows, Full of promise for tomorrow / The dreams we dream are such precious little things.....

8: Old Man Moses Written by Danielle Vaughn copyright 2012 (ASCAP) Old man Moses, no one listens to you / Even though a burning bush told you to / Ido what I do / Just like you / Because He asked me to / He asked me too / The bur-dens on my back / weigh me down / Giving me cause to sorrow and frown / Rocky terrain and rugged ground / But He’s leading me / glory bound / When people ask, / “who made you so smart” / I don’t know what to say / to a hard hard heart / I feel like I’m playing your part / in the same old play / with no end and no start / Forty years wandering / in a foreign place / Fleeing from an enemy / searching for grace / Weary, forlorn / keeping up with this pace / Looking forward to gazing / on His sweet face / Old man Moses, no one listens to you / Even though a burning bush told you to / I do what I do / Just like you / Because He asked me to / He asked me too

Many years ago he got down on his knees / with nothing but stars in his eyes / He promised her roses and a white picket fence / In his hand was a silver surprise. / A chocolate confection / A gift of perfection ‘Twas all the poor man had to give / Exchanging their vows / Saving for a dream house.... / But for now, all he has to give: / are Chocolate kisses / for the Mrs. / Mmmm, but the man, he’s / more handy than the candy / A little kiss goes a long, long way / At the end of a weary day / Chocolate kisses for the Mrs. / Mmmm, the candy reminds her of how he’s / far better than diamonds / or even a glass slipper / It’s the little things that make / for happy ever afters
