Ready to be Found

Surrounded by walls that I built myself
It’s been so long since i loved someone else
My feet are light but my heart is heavy
Like ships in the night, all the almosts and maybes
Now my eyes are open
My walls are down
My heart is ready
Ready to be found
Don’t wanna be blind, I’m ready to see
I don’t wanna hide from what’s in front of me
I’m giving myself permission to dare
Ready to find somebody who cares
Now my eyes are open
My walls are down
My heart is ready
Ready to be found
I’m breaking the cycle, just find me my baby
The show must go on, no more almosts and maybes
So give me the hammer
Tear the walls down
I’m finally ready
Ready to be found
Ready to be found

I can’t help my heart
But actions play a part
Can’t control my reaction
To that physical attraction
I’ve been through a lot
Now I know what I got
Is too precious to give away
If you won’t stay
So let’s put it to the test, if you wanna have my best
Love is unconditional
But you gotta earn the rest
I don’t need to be first place
But you gotta save me space
I refuse to fight for the right
To stand by your side
So keep it on your mind, if you wanna be all mine
Love is unconditional
But you gotta earn my time
Baby i’m the real deal
You’ll always know how i feel
My love is never ending
But my heart needs protecting
My passion can’t be beat
But trust is a two-way street
As long as I know that you care
I’ll always be there
I told you from the start, if you wanna have my heart
Love is unconditional
But you gotta do your part
Yeah you gotta do your part
If you want to have my heart...
You gotta do your part...

Broken

Your scars tell a story that I wanna hear
But you won’t tell me
Your eyes they are on me when we are near
But you won’t see me
Yeah I know we’ve all been broken
We don’t need to try and hide it
But the only way to make it
Is to go on out and live your life despite it
You are what I want but I’m not what you need
Unless you want me
I’m a fire gone wild, I’m a voodoo child
But I love you
I see deep inside honey you don’t know your mind
Let me show you
Yeah I know we’ve all been broken
We don’t need to try and hide it
But the only way to make it
Is to go on out and live your life despite it
And now that I know how it’s gonna be
I wish you well dear
You’ll never be free till you see what I see
And love yourself dear
Yeah I know we’ve all been broken
We don’t need to try and hide it
But the only way to make it
Is to go on out, go on out and fight it
You are what I want but I’m not what you need
Unless you want me
Unless you want me

Lockdown Boogie Woogie

Hey everybody have you heard the news
Time to get rid of your lockdown blues
When everybody gotta stay inside
Suddenly the balconies come alive
Now let me tell you what it’s all about
The building’s jumping, the neighbors shout,
The lockdown boogie woogie
See the neighbor with the flower garden
Never had time to love and tend them
Now she’s out there every day
Just happy that he babies are okay
You gotta keep that lovin feeling
Soon her flowers will join the singing
Lockdown boogie woogie
An artist at heart but not profession
Finally has time to live her passion
The art supplies are out of the drawer
Paint is splattered all over the floor
No it don’t matter if she’s any good
Art will always lift her mood
Lockdown boogie woogie
Two young guys who share a home
Looking for girls to call their own
They see two neighbors who are might fine
Gotta find a way to give them a sign
Let’s pretend we’re noble lords
Fight with brooms just like they’re swords
Lockdown boogie woogie
Nothing will stand in the way of loving
The groom is proud, the bride is blushing
They can’t wait to say i do
So they call upon their neighbors’ crew
Some bring flowers, others watch,
One even plays the wedding march
Lockdown boogie woogie
Lockdown boogie woogie

Pieces of Me

Wake up again in the same place
Yesterday feels like today
How can I go about my business
When tomorrow will be just the same
There’s a room in my soul I don’t enter
The tears and the fears locked away
I pass by that door in the hurry
But i can’t run away from the pain
Pieces of me are scattered
Each one is held by a friend
I try to hold on to the echo of love
Until I can hold you again
Can’t keep on hiding these feelings
Can’t lock them away like before
Gotta open the door to the depth of my soul
I’m not running away anymore
Pieces of me are scattered
Each one is held by a friend
I try to hold on to the echo of love
Until I can hold you again
I know I don’t have to keep smiling
I know i don’t have to be strong
The tears and the fears have a purpose
They remind me that love isn’t gone
They remind me that love isn’t gone
