UNPLUG

It’s not such a mystery
This vulnerability
Feeling guilty spending all my time with you
Away from reality
Focusing on you and me
This precious time is long overdue
So let’s unplug from the world
Fill up the tank, head for the hills
Find some peace, reconnect
Take the time we haven’t yet
Let the music set us free
Remember who we’re meant to be
That’s the quickest way to fall back into love
Unplug
Memories we sacrificed
Lonely days and sleepless nights
It’s hard to know just where the time has gone
Life is moving way too fast
Let’s slow it down and make it last
Show them all that we can be that strong
And unplug from the world
Fill up the tank, head for the hills
Find some peace, reconnect
Take the time we haven’t yet
Let the music set us free
Remember who we’re meant to be
That’s the quickest way to fall back into love
Unplug
Let the music set us free
Remember who we’re meant to be
That’s the quickest way to fall back into love
Unplug

The Little Things

THE LITTLE THINGS
Stephanie Sabin / Austin Sabin / Will Kimbrough
I’m just trying to find the little things
The things that make her happy
All the other stuff just pays the bills
Spending time together, in the car and on the water
Trying to leave this flat land for the hills
She says I’m her best friend
And she’d follow me anywhere
I go - it’s the same for me, I’d say
It’s always been the two of us
And now we’ve got the kid
It’s the three of us together all the way
High up on a mountain
Shenandoah or Mt Fuji
Fishing on the ocean or the lake
Anywhere that we can go
Where no one else will be
I will do whatever it takes
To find all of the little things
The things that make us happy
Leaving all those drama queens back home
We’ve been blessed by monks in Thailand
Played hockey in Japan
It’s the best of times wherever we may roam
Rafting on whitewater, she was pregnant with the kid
Thrown overboard but that turned out okay
You could say we’re crazy or we’re lucky, maybe both
Tell us where to go and we’ll be on our way
We’ll be looking for the little things
The things that make us happy
Although we never really said I do
It’s been fifteen years now since we said you wanna
And no matter what this world may put us through
There’s still everywhere I want to go with you
China, India, New Zealand, Kathmandu
Just the three of us, the kid and me and you
I’m looking for the little things
The things that make her happy

BROKEN AS WE ARE
Dana Jolman / Dustin Jolman / Gary Burr
Not sure all our drama is worthy of a song
Most days things go right
But try with all our might
Some things still go wrong
We don’t like to talk about it
We don’t like to show our scars
So our friends have no idea
That it’s amazing we’re still here
Broken as we are
Our next chapter may be
Rocky and rough
We we’ll get through it all
And stay stupid in love
I get sad you get to go
I get mad I have to stay
That’s how it’s always been
Just as we settle in
Uncle Sam takes you away
We’re awfully good at hiding
The damage done so far
And it must seem quite unfair
That the passion is still there
Broken as we are
We know the time is coming
When no dream will seem too far
And baby you and me… we’ll no longer be
Broken as we are
Baby you and me… we’ll no longer be
Broken as we are

THAT CHANCE
Kristina Clancy / John Clancy / Georgia Middleman
If I got close to you
I was afraid that I might lose you
I was afraid that you might see
How imperfect I can be
If I got close to you
What if I was not enough for you
And everything we built
Just crumbled at our feet
And oh, most people just won’t go there
But they ain’t they you and me
Choosing to be brave
When we didn’t have to be
I was taught to keep it in
Don’t show your heart to anybody
But you weren’t just anybody
And I couldn’t take that chance
You see, I just wanna hold you
Baby, I just need to see you
And I just wanna to hear you
Tell me everything’s okay
And oh, most people just won’t go there
But they ain’t they you and me
Choosing to be brave
When we didn’t have to be
We didn’t have to stick around
We didn’t have to tell the truth
We didn’t have to fight so hard
But that’s just what we do
And oh, most people just won’t go there
But they ain’t they you and me
Choosing to be brave
When we didn’t have to be

HOME
Laura Dearing / Mark Dearing / Will Kimbrough
You opened up your eyes for the first time
And we heard that sweet little cry
A baby boy so perfect, soft and warm
Born to be strong, to keep moving on
Welcome home to your family
Welcome to the place where you belong
Welcome home
As the days and weeks went passing by
The doctors say there’s things that we can try
To keep you here as long as we can
You look our way and I can almost hear you say
Take me home to my family
Take me to the place where I belong
Take me to my mother, my father and my brother
Days are short we only have so long
Take me home
We want to make each moment last forever
Hold on to the ones we love so tight
Always keep the memories we made
Beautiful and bright
Bring me home to my family
Where we can be together once again
We only have one life to live
So let’s all make the best of it
No one knows what’s around the bend
Take me home
Bring me home
Welcome home
I am Home

My Braver Face

MY BRAVER FACE
Lauren McPeak / Robert McPeak / Gary Burr
Will I lose myself?
Will I have regret?
Will I always feel my children’s arms around my neck?
Will I be enough?
Will I make a home?
Thanks to love I don’t have to do this on my own
Fear won’t be the end of me
Fear won’t be my enemy
I will fight day and night to stay in this state of grace
I’ll stare it down and when I’m done
I’ll feel content and peace will come
I’ll face the demons one by one
And put on my braver face
Take my hand
I’ll make the leap
I have to learn to trust a love that runs this deep
Cause I was the broken one
But I put the pieces back
Now life puts a mountain in my way and I just laugh and say
Fear won’t be the end of me
Fear won’t be my enemy
I will fight day and night to stay in this state of grace
I’ll stare it down and when I’m done
I’ll feel content and peace will come
I’ll face the demons one by one
And put on my braver face
So take your best shot
Give it all that you’ve got
You think you gonna win but you’re not
Fear won’t be the end of me
Fear won’t be my enemy
I will fight day and night to stay in this state of grace
I’ll stare it down and when I’m done
I’ll feel content and peace will come
I’ll face the demons one by one
And put on my braver face

PARENTS AND SOLDIERS
Alisha Cotner / Scott Cotner / Georgia Middleman
A couple dumb kids who after two months
Decided we were going to marry
You said you didn’t want a soldier but now the joke is on you
Cause this life is nothing short of legendary
Two beautiful kids that we can be proud of
After all that we’ve been through
I’m so proud of this love
Parents and soldiers
Lovers and friends
It’s been really nice
Getting to know you again
38 years old, 15 years together
And now we’re finding out we kind a like each other
And that we’re so much more
Than parents and soldiers
I was a military wife a stay at home mom
But now I get live the life I wanted
I was a body in armor, an instrument of war
But I’m slowly finding I’m no longer haunted
We’ve lost so many friends cause their war never did end
Let’s make sure that that’s not us
That’s why we’re learning how to bend
Parents and soldiers
Lovers and friends
It’s been really nice
Getting to know you again
38 years old, 15 years together
And now we’re finding out we kind a like each other
And that we’re so much more
Than parents and soldiers

TAKE IT HOME
Kristina Clancy / John Clancy / Laura Dearing / Mark Dearing / Alisha Cotner / Scott Cotner / Dana Jolman / Dustin Jolman / Lauren McPeak / Rob McPeak / Stephanie Sabin / Austin Sabin / Gary Burr / Georgia Middleman / Will Kimbrough
You can start with a paper and a pen
You can start with MySpace adding a friend
You can watch her putting groceries in a paper bag
Or you can check her out in biology lab
That may be the way love starts
But here’s the most the important part
I choose you every day
And you choose me that’s why we stay
It’s good to not feel so alone
I wanna wrap this up and take it home
I wanna wrap this up and take it home
I wanna take this moment here and now
I hope we laugh, show each other how
To put on our song and dance in the rain
Remember the love, forget all the pain
Life gets crazy, yes, it’s true
Here’s the one thing we can do
I choose you every day
And you choose me that’s why we stay
It’s good to not feel so alone
I wanna wrap this up and take it home
I wanna wrap this up and take it home
If we treat each day like the day we met
That’s the way we won’t forget
I choose you every day
And you choose me that’s why we stay
It’s good to not feel so alone
I wanna wrap this up and take it home
I wanna wrap this up and take it home
