Let It Go

Last night,
Stayed awake until I could see daylight
Figuring I could do right
If I could set myself free...

Now,
I'm sitting here with a ticket to nowhere,
Wondering why I still care what you’re thinking of me.

Cut the ties that bind me,
Put the past behind me
And let it go

Wasted time,
Trying to make some sense from disaster
Wishing my life would go faster
.......If I could only believe

Puzzle pieces scrambled
Picture me unravelled
Just let it go

It is what it is.....
So, let it go

Shadow~ Wendy's Tale

Shadow
Frustration mounts as she tries to relate to his shadow once again.
Hollow and unyielding, he darts the truth.
Hope keeps her needle threaded.
Expensive!
Shadows are expensive.

For No Other Reason

Pre-Verse: (Rubato)

Someone may wonder why I say the things I do

Wonder if I’m true

Tell me, do I wonder you?


Don’t let the circumstances change the way you feel

It’s really no big deal-

relax let go____and soon you’ll know


For No Other Reason
Than you want to

For No Other Reason

Than you can


For some silly reason

I might join you there

Let you take me anywhere


For No Other Reason

Than you’re hoping

For No Other Reason

Than... I’m there


Soon we’ll be in the season

Where we’ll know beyond a doubt

That’s___ what this was all about

For No Other Reason

Than love


Instrumental Break


For No Other Reason
Than you want to

For No Other Reason

Than you can


Soon we’ll be in the season

Where we’ll know beyond a doubt

That’s what this was all about


For No Other Reason

For Knowing the Reason

There’s No Other Reason

Than love

You Can’t Shine It

You can see it

You can touch it

Maybe play all night in the dark with it


You can use it to write your letter

You can hope it will make you feel all better


Leave what you have just to be with it,

But, baby, You Can’t Shine It



You can take it

On vacation

You can make it a dinner reservation


Pretend that

It has devotion

Maybe think it’s your special magic potion (Make it think it’s your special magic potion)


You can dance your feet all around it

But, baby, You Can’t Shine It


Instrumental Break


You can spend a

Month of Sundays

Dressing it up in some fancy undies


You can drive it

To Seattle ( all the way to Seattle)

Try to make it think it’s worth the battle


Lookin’ back, I’m sure you’ll regret it

Cause, baby, You Can’t Shine It


Cause, baby,

You Can’t Shine It
