A Song's Song
02:38

Well a song can make you happy when you’re sad
Oh, a song can make things better when things are bad
A song can help you say all the things you’re feeling deep inside
Oh a song can be your friend when you’re feeling along
A song can help you learn when it’s time to grow
There’s a little song for every feeling that you might know
If there’s a song on your mind just sing it out loud
If there’s a song in your heart just sing it out proud
Oh there’s a little song that we can all gather around
Well a song can bring joy, yeah, a song can bring peace
Oh a song can say I’m sorry, do you forgive?
A song can be a lifeline that you send a friend
I believe in the power of a song to help us learn to be ourselves.
And I believe for every person there’s a song
Lets get yours up off the shelf
And when the road is bumpy a song might be all you need
And when the road is winding you just come along and sing with me

Attention!
02:21
|

I need your attention
I need your attention right now, please!
Look! I said please…
I need your attention
I need you to watch what I am doing
Why aren’t you looking?
You said just a minute,
But how longs a minute, I don’t know
You said just a minute
Feels like forever ago
I need your attention, oh pay me attention
I’m begging, please!
Oh, I’m begging you on my knees
I need your attention, oh why won’t you pay me attention
I’m asking, please
Oh, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty please
But you’re on the telephone
Talking to somebody that I don’t know
But how longs a minute, feels like forever ago
I need you now!

You Can Ask Me Anything
02:29
|
|||
My baby, you can ask me anything
Anything that comes to your mind
Like why does the rain fall down from up above?
Tell me why, I gotta know why
My darling, you can ask me anything
Anything that comes to your mind
Lik how does a flower bloom on late July?
Tell me why, I gotta know why
Together we’ll make a safe space
For all of your questions and concerns
And I’ll do my best to give answers unless
I don’t have the answer to a specific question you’ve asked
In which case we’ll find out together
Cause you can ask me anything
Absolutely anything, my dear.
Take it away trumpets

The Light of the Sun
03:11
|
|||
(Chorus)I’ll help you find the light of the sun
Oh my child, oh my child (2x)
When you are down and in the blues
I’ll lift you up, I’ll carry you (2x)
(Chorus)
In times of sorrow in times of pain
I’ll lift you up I’ll be listening (2x)
(Chorus)
And when the night falls we’ll find the moon
And we’ll sing to it a little moon tune (2x)
(Chorus)

Oh, To Be A Bird
03:21
|
|||
Oh, to be a bird that lives in a tree
I’d build my house out of sticks and string
And I’d sing a little song a twee-dilly-dee
And I’d bring a worm to my babies three
And when they were grown they would fly away free
And then come the winter you wouldn’t see m
Cause I’d flit and I’d flap and fly o’er the see
But oh come the Spring I’d return on a breeze
And I’d sing my little song a twee-dilly-dee
Oh to be a bird, Oh to be a bird, Oh to be a bird who lives in a tree

Seasons of Green
02:57
|

(Chorus)Green green the seasons of green
If you had a song, what would it be?
I’m listening
In Spring green comes in like a whisper
A soft little song that it sings from the trees
In Spring green unfurls upon the forest floor
A chorus that’s carried by the mosses and ferns
By Summer green’s song is a booming
A loud and thunderous cry
But then comes the Fall and green’s not so strong
It fades as it slowly retreats with a sigh
(Chorus)
In Fall green sings songs of surrender
To the ember leaves of the trees up above
But Fall doesn’t stay, it’s a rapid decay
That leads us to Winter, just a few breaths away
In Winter green’s song is a deep one
That’s sung by the needles of pines
They sway as they sing a sweet little ring
But listen, here come the whispers of Spring
(Chorus)

Good Night, Sleep Tight
02:49
|

Good night, good night
My darling, good night
May you dream, by the light of the moon
My darling, sleep tight
Sleep tight, Sleep tight
My darling, sleep tight
May you dream, by the light of the moon
My darling, sleep tight
My darling, good night
And close your eyes
And dream by the light of the moon

Little Moon Tune
04:20
|
|||
Oh, thank you moon I see you
Spinning your silver thread
Moving through your phases
As we lay down our tired heads
Oh, a little moon tune
Oh, thank you for your gravity
As you’re pulling waves at the shore
And thank you for the light you reflect
As you’re knocking at nighttime’s door
Oh, a little moon tune
All of your secrets kept
We’ll guess but never know
We’ll sleep all through the night
Beneath your tender glow
Magic and mystery
Your deep and starry friends
Your mirror is the sea
As ripples find the edge
A little moon tune
