MEAN IT
Dan and Sharon Barr / Jay Clementi
Look at our Love, it keeps getting better
The good times and bad we grew up together
I fly off the handle and you bring me down earth
You lift me up so high, above the hurt
This big old world is such a scary place
You give everything to keep us safe
I’ll always be the one that you can trust
Beauty that’s what you deserve
I said I’ll never give up on us
and baby I meant every word
I meant every word
even when my compass, is dusty and broken
It always points to you with a truth that goes unspoken
We’re two halves meant to be whole
Forever heart to heart connected soul to soul
This big old world, is such a scary place
But I’m not afraid, cause you’re my saving grace
I’ll always be the one that you can trust
Beauty that’s what you deserve
I said I’ll never give up on us
And baby I meant every word
I am who I am because of you
I can’t count all the times your love pulled me through
I’ll always be the one that you can trust
Beauty that’s what you deserve
I said I’ll never give up on us
And baby, I meant every word
I meant every word
I meant every word
I mean every word

PLANTING SEEDS
John and Lilliana Massimo / Trent Willmon
A little while back we decided we needed a brand new start
So we moved out of the mountains, bought ourselves a little farm
Raising fresh tomatoes, and a bunch of kids and big ol patch green beans
Who’d have thought you and me would be here now…. Planting seeds
We’ve both seen our share of loss and struggle but we’re thankful for the hard times
Took livin a lot o what we didn’t want, to find what we really wanted in life
Everyday we try to be an example of what we want our kids to be
It’s a whole lot like a garden… Planting seeds
How to be strong, how to be calm, how show respect to each other and listen
How To be careful with the words we’re sewing , cuz you’re gonna get it back and then some
They’re putting down roots & growing, they’re looking up to you and me,
It’s a whole lotta work but it sure is worth it, planting seeds
Now to some it might seem outdated, it’s not what the world teaches these days
Like opening a door for a lady, or standing up for what you believe
Hard work and honesty, and trust and empathy, a little bit o’ chivalry
We hope our kids will pass on it to theirs someday, so we’re planting seeds
How to be strong, how to be calm, how show respect to each other and listen
How To be careful with the words we’re sewing , cuz you’re gonna get it back and then some
They’re putting down roots & growing, but they’re looking up to you and me,
And it’s a whole lotta work but it sure is worth it, planting these seeds
How to be strong, how to be calm, how show respect to each other and listen
How To be careful with the words we’re sewing , cuz you’re gonna get it back and then some
They’re putting down roots & growing, but they’re looking up to you and me,
And it’s a whole lotta work but it sure is worth it, planting seeds
Yeah they’re growing like weeds so it’s up to you and me, to keep on planting seeds! I’ll give you my all till the day I fall, baby planting seeds

REAL LOVE
David and Aspen Drewry / Trent Willmon
Baby you don’t understand what you brought to man who’s always been Colorblind
Your my every hue of spring, Red’s and blues and greens, and sunshine
Baby when you’re around I’m not afraid be who I am unapologetically
You’re my Roller coaster ride, rollin through all the lows and highs,
Like a Bonfire in dark, a safe house for my broken heart
You’re the only soul I trust, here’s to the future us
Baby who’d a thought there was such a thing as real love
Through all the lemon cars and lemon houses made of cards, we’re still makin lemonade
Even on my darkest days it might be the only thing that I don’t overthink
Instead of sayin “I do” we said “I reckon”
I still love you as much as I love bacon
You’re my Roller coaster ride, rollin through all the lows and highs,
Like a Bonfire in dark, a safe house for my broken heart
You’re the only soul I trust, here’s to the future us
Who’d a thought there was such a thing as real love
It’s unconditional, and guilt free, baby we might of fooled around and found the recipe
Cause you’re my Roller coaster ride, rollin through all the lows and highs,
You’re like a Bonfire in dark, a safe house for my broken heart
You’re the only soul I trust, and here’s to the future us
Baby who’d a thought there was such a thing as real love
Baby who’d a thought there was such a thing as real love

NEVER BEEN SO SURE
Wes and Rachel Woodward / Terry Radigan
Every heartache
Every mistake
Every single tear
Every misstep
Every regret
All those wasted years
Led me to your door
And I’ve never been so sure
This is what love is for
To walk beside you
Always guide you
Keep your dreams with mine
Above the clouds
Far from the crowds
Baby how you shine
I couldn’t love you more
And I’ve never been so sure
This is what life is for
Cause every time
I look at you
I still have to catch
Have to catch my breath
And I just wanna spend
My life
Making you glad as I am
That you said yes
And forever i’ll be yours
Cause I’ve never been so sure
You are what it’s all for
Every heartache
Every mistake
Led me to your door

FOUND
Angel and Jennifer Cruz / Terry Radigan
A mother who was barely grown
A father who was never home
No one looking out for me
Had to learn it on the streets
I drank it down and smoked it up
But I could never get enough
Get enough to ease the pain
Till I had enough
And broke those chains
And I dared to dream
For something I had never seen
A flash of hope
When everything was up in smoke
I picked myself up and learned to rise above
and for the first time in my life
I believed I could be loved
And when I could finally trust my heart
the missing piece the place to start
He showed up at my door
And something I ain’t ever felt before
Now we both walked that broken road
But that’s not how our story goes
We write it each and every day
When we fight for love
And don’t walk away
Yes I dared to dream
For something I had never seen
a flash of hope
when everything was up in smoke
I picked myself up and I learned to rise above
And for the first time in my life
I am truly loved
I am truly loved

AFRAID OF THE TRUTH
Kirby and Barbara Johnson / Jay Clementi
There’s a wall between us so high, we built with fear, guilt and shame and pride
We tried by ourselves, and we failed to tear it down
We need to come together to knock it to the ground
I want to know about your hurt
I want to share your pain
I know I can help you come out of the rain
I’m in chains watching you drown
In the darkness of the past
Sometimes to move forward, we need to take a look back
I’m here for you, I’m not afraid of the truth
You are my heart, you can’t brake it, You are my strength baby I can take it
Let’s walk together to that healing place
I’ll be right here to wipe the tears from your face
I want to know about your hurt
I want to share your pain
I know I can help you come out of the rain
I’m in chains watching you drown
In the darkness of your past
Sometimes to move forward, we need to take a look back
I’m here for you, I’m not afraid of the truth
Tell me tell me that I’m not scared to know
So we can take on what the future holds
Tell me tell me I believe in you
I’m not afraid, Not afraid of the truth
I’m in chains watching you drown
In the darkness of the past
Sometimes to move forward, we need to take a look back
I’m here for you, I’m not afraid, not afraid of the truth
I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid of the truth

ALL WE GOT
Dan and Sharon Barr / Angel and Jennifer Cruz / David and Aspen Drewry / Kirby and Barbara Johnson / John and Lilliana Massimo / Wes and Rachel Woodward
Jay Clementi / Terry Radigan / Trent Willmon
Wanna wake up every day
And celebrate the life we’re living
I’m thankful for each breath
And the gift that we’ve been given
Choose our words with love and care
And really learn to listen
Been a long long road
We got a long way to go…. we both know
We ain’t giving up hope.. gonna dance through
Life with a brand new light
Nothing on earth gonna stop us
Love each other with all we got
Gonna go to bed each night
Satisfied we made a difference
Press your lips to mine
Just like it’s our first time kissing
No plan can be our plan
We’ll make it hand in hand
Down this long long road
We got a long way to go…. we both know
We ain’t giving up hope.. gonna dance through
Life with a brand new light
Nothing on earth gonna stop us
Love each other with all we got
Never let the sunset
On anything left unsaid
Down this long long road
We got a long way to go…. we both know
We ain’t giving up hope.. gonna dance through
Life with a brand new light
Nothing on earth gonna stop us
Love each other with all we go

CALM TO MY STORM
Dan and Sharon Barr / Angel and Jennifer Cruz / David and Aspen Drewry / Kirby and Barbara Johnson / John and Lilliana Massimo / Wes and Rachel Woodward
Jay Clementi / Terry Radigan / Trent Willmon
When we’re apart, Baby I’m a mess
I toss and turn, Honey I can’t get no rest
You know what I’m thinking
Without saying a thing
Baby you’re my refuge
The calm to my storm , Calm to my storm
I’m at peace when I’m with you
Your the calm to my storm
The blanket of your love keeps me warm
You’re the calm to my storm
You’re my sunshine, breaking through clouds
You’re my shelter, when that thunder gets too loud
You're the stillness in the sea and everything to me
Baby you’re my refuge
The calm to my storm , Calm to my storm
I’m at peace when I’m with you
Your the calm to my storm
The blanket of your love keeps me warm
You’re the calm to my storm
I wanna be wanna that for you
I wanna be wanna be that for you
wanna be wanna be that for you
Baby you’re my refuge
The calm to my storm , Calm to my storm
I’m at peace when I’m with you
Your the calm to my storm
The blanket of your love keeps me warm
You’re the calm to my storm
