TRY TO LOVE
 

LOVE HIM ALWAYS 

His light is dimming 
it cannot burn 
he might not make it 
one more day 
his heart is breaking 
his bones are longing 
to be held 

Love him always 
Love him always 
Hold him, don’t let go 
I’m your voice inside 
Saying don’t lose hope 
Just believe in love 

No one knows how much he hurts 
he acts like nothing is wrong 
most days he can survive 
by himself 
it is the nights that ruin him

Love him always  
Love him always  
Hold him, don’t let go  
I’m your voice inside  
Saying don’t lose hope  
Just believe in love 

It kills him not being with her 
he knows fighting will not help 
it really could be beautiful 
if they only fell in love 

Love him always   
Love him always   
Hold him, don’t let go   
I’m your voice inside   
Saying don’t lose hope   
Just believe in love 

 

CRY KNOWING HE’S GONE 

He gave his word 
She quietly jumped inside 
Very happy, so in love 
Thought it would last 

She cries at night 
Donning her cries like sin 
Knowing he’s gone 
Never to return again 

Her biggest fear 
Is being alone 
Now she cannot breathe 
She has no air 

She cries at night  
Donning her cries like sin  
Knowing he’s gone  
Never to return again 

No one can take her life 
She is dying underneath 

She cries at night   
Donning her cries like sin   
Knowing he’s gone   
Never to return again 

ONE 

He does beautiful dancing 
He sings just like my heart 
He is my muse 
He is always on my mind 
He is always on my mind
 
And I want everyone to know 
That I like him 
I want everyone to know 
That he is my… 

One try 
One hope 
One love 

He has a song in his heart 
He hides the pain in his eyes 
He is so like me 
He is so like me 
It’s pretty simple 
It’s pretty easy 

One try 
One hope 
One love
 
One try 
One hope 
One love 

LOVE LASTS SO LONG  

What love takes away 
life gives it back. 
Love leaves you longing for life. 
You pick lovely flowers 
on top of a hill that 
always is picking you up. 

Love lasts so long. 
Love lasts so long. 
Love lasts so long. 

People no longer long for love. 
Opposites at least love each other. 
You know as each day passes, 
a little love lights up your way. 
Longing for love is putting people 
at love’s ready life. 

Love lasts so long.  
Love lasts so long.  
Love lasts so long. 
 

LET LOVE IN 

I never thought I might feel this love 
It seemed impossible 
I waited for you to come take me away 
But you never appeared 
I begged you not to forget me 
Please tell me you remember 
Now make sure remember to... 

Let love in 
Open your heart 
Let love in 
You might never know love 
Let it in 

Let your own heart live 
In your own time 
Let it pour out from inside 
I wanted to be the one 
Who never cried 
But rest assured 
I just get by 
I only want the best for you 
Will you save really good thoughts for me too? 

I begged you not to forget me  
Please tell me you remember  
Now make sure remember to...  

Let love in  
Open your heart  
Let love in  
You might never know love  
Let it in

I LOVE YOU MORE EACH DAY 

I am so strong, I am so proud. 
I am so quiet, I am so loud. 
I am your daughter, I am your friend. 
I will love you until the end. 

I love you, I love you 
And you love me too. 
I love you, I love you 
And we know it's true. 
Yes, we know it's true. 

I see you love me and I see 
The way you kiss my face each day. 
I see the way you are with me. 
I see the person and know you're free. 

I love you, I love you  
And you love me too.  
I love you, I love you  
And we know it's true.  
Yes, we know it's true. 

I love you, I love you  
And you love me too.  
I love you, I love you  
And we know it's true.  
Yes, we know it's true. 

I MISS YOU 

I hate you 
I love you 
I want you to hold me very badly 
My heart is broken 
I’m playing with you 
I want to go back to the boy who knew so well 
how to hold my face in his hands 
in his hands 

I miss you and 
I hope that you miss me too 
I miss you and 
I hope that you miss me too 
you miss me too you miss me too 

I played you like a game 
I hope you treat your new girl the same 
as you treated my heart 
my heart, my heart 

I miss you and  
I hope that you miss me too  
I miss you and  
I hope that you miss me too  
you miss me too you miss me too

I miss you and  
I hope that you miss me too  
I miss you and  
I hope that you miss me too  
you miss me too you miss me too

MY FRIEND 

Little girl is playing all alone 
Little boy is not for he is bright 
Little girl thinks she’s never going to be 
No, it’s little boy who might 

Be the friend 
be the light 
Make it better 
make it right 
Be everything she needs tonight 

In little girl’s world she is in good hands 
She’s surrounded by people that care 
In little boy’s world he is trying to be strong 
Just trying to be her someone 

Be the friend  
be the light  
Make it better  
make it right  
Be everything she needs tonight

In little girl’s life there is so much to pray for 
There is hope, pain, and joy 
In little boy’s life there is love for her 
He didn’t know it was there 

Be the friend  
be the light  
Make it better  
make it right  
Be everything she needs tonight

TODAY, NOT TOMORROW 

Can you not lie? 
Can you be ever true? 
Can you try? 
Can I try too? 

Certain moments have no beauty 
nothing but hurt and sorrow 
You see just what you want 
Today and not tomorrow 

Can you be yourself 
in the red car you drive? 
Have until tomorrow, 
you have tomorrow to hold to. 

Certain moments have no beauty  
nothing but hurt and sorrow  
You see just what you want  
Today and not tomorrow 

Do you hear your heart beating? 
Do you fear your ghosts seeing who you are?
Who you are? 

Certain moments have no beauty  
nothing but hurt and sorrow  
You see just what you want  
Today and not tomorrow 

THE LOVE YOU TAKE 

Today it has been so long 
since I saw you. 
It doesn’t hurt the way it did last June. 
I hardly notice anymore 
but days pass by when I’m not sure, 
did you care or was it in my head? 

If you take my love 
you need to give a little back. 
If you feel you owe nothing 
you were wrong. 
I feel we have so much left to give. 
Try to remember 
the love you take comes from me. 

I don’t offer my love either way. 
I love each perfect little moment we shared. 
I love really knowing someone, 
knowing how to love someone like you. 

If you take my love  
you need to give a little back.  
If you feel you owe nothing  
you were wrong.  
I feel we have so much left to give.  
Try to remember  
the love you take comes from me. 

I may one day see you but you 
may not know. 
I will hold you close to my heart. 
I quit waiting to hear 
“I love you”. 
I need you to remember. 

If you take my love  
you need to give a little back.  
If you feel you owe nothing  
you were wrong.  
I feel we have so much left to give.  
Try to remember  
the love you take comes from me. 

THE MAN I KNEW 

There was a man 
I knew inside and out. 
I knew his awful sadness 
I knew his pain and doubt. 

I knew a girl 
who laughed always. 
I knew a girl 
who held his heart. 

The man I knew was handsome. 
The girl I knew sang do re mi. 
They were so divided. 
Even then, they were so in love. 

I knew a man 
who played great piano. 
I knew a girl 
she loved to dance. 

I knew a man 
who knew each moment 
he was lucky 
to have this girl in his life.

The man I knew was handsome.  
The girl I knew sang do re mi.  
They were so divided.  
Even then, they were so in love. (repeat)

LOVE SARAH 

Certainly, certainly you. 
Certainly, certainly you. 

Like an unchanged rose, 
Your beauty stays. 
It touches people wherever 
Your love for me goes. 
You hear my love for you, 
It takes your breath away. 

Certainly, certainly you.  
Certainly, certainly you. 

You're an old soul, 
Whose heart loves all. 
Look into your beingness, 
And love our bond. 
Love our bond, 
And really possess motherly love. 

Certainly, certainly you.  
Certainly, certainly you. 

I love you Mommy, 
I love you. 
I love you Mommy, 
I love you. 
You love me more than 
Everyone else in the world. 

Certainly, certainly you.  
Certainly, certainly you. 

HOPE DOES AS WE WISH 

Pointing towards love, our destinies have found,
how special each radiant beam can be. 
The beam of love, the beam of laughter,
is radiated between us. 

You are my sister; I am your courage.
You are my light; I am your pride.
A hopeful wish will keep us together as many miles keep us apart. We will always be together in our hearts.
And if we keep hope in our hearts, hope will be our guiding star. Wish upon a hopeful star wherever you are. 

You came to me with your open soul. 
I came right in with a cherished gift. 
You made it real, 
my dreams came true, 
and then we set sail to the stars. 

You are my sister; I am your courage. 
You are my light; I am your pride. 
A hopeful wish will keep us together as many miles keep us apart. We will always be together in our hearts. 
And if we keep hope in our hearts, hope will be our guiding star. Wish upon a hopeful star wherever you are. 

 Our bond is never to be broken as we have our songs. 
And as the chapter of our dreams change our music carries on. We’ll inspire, we’ll give hope, we’ll wish upon our stars, to radiate to one another from oh so afar. 

You are my sister; I am your courage. 
You are my light; I am your pride. 
A hopeful wish will keep us together as many miles keep us apart. We will always be together in our hearts. 
And if we keep hope in our hearts, hope will be our guiding star. Wish upon a hopeful star wherever you are. 

We are sisters; we are courageous. 
We are the light amongst the dark. 
Hope keeps our flicker going miles and miles apart.

Q: What is this song about? A: I eventually would like to make someone happy. Only downside is I can’t type to him.  Q: Who is the “you” you wrote about?  A: Father.

I wrote it mostly about my dad. It seems like it could be about my dad or some boy I liked or a lost friend. It is about all of those things.
