UNPLUG 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 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 © 2021 SongwritingWith:Soldiers Music (ASCAP) / Will Kimbrough Music (BMI) / Middle Girl Music (ASCAP) / Connboy Music (SESAC)

The Little Things 03:13

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 © 2021 SongwritingWith:Soldiers Music (ASCAP) / Will Kimbrough Music (BMI)

Broken As We Are 02:38

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 © 2021 SongwritingWith:Soldiers Music (ASCAP) / Connboy Music (SESAC)

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 © 2021 SongwritingWith:Soldiers Music (ASCAP) / Middle Girl Music (ASCAP)

Home 02:42

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 © 2021 SongwritingWith:Soldiers Music (ASCAP) / Will Kimbrough Music (BMI)

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 © 2021 SongwritingWith:Soldiers Music (ASCAP) / Connboy Music (SESAC)

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 © 2021 SongwritingWith:Soldiers Music (ASCAP) / Middle Girl Music (ASCAP)
