Love Is Greater Than

LOVE IS GREATER THAN
I’ve got a vision
That lives deep in my soul
Some days it’s bigness
Can make me feel small
Until I remember
All that I can hold
And the reason why I came
So I take a leap of faith
Trust that Love will catch me
Catch me if I fall
Cause I believe that Love
Is greater than it all
Love is greater than
Love is greater than it all
Love is greater than
Love is greater than it all
This life can be a mission
To heal until we’re whole
Some say “we’re only human”
We’re learning as we go
To feel our way through
All the pain we’ve known
But it’s really just a game
Might as well enjoy while we play
Trust that Love will catch us
Catch us if we fall
Cause who we are is Love
Is greater than it all
Love is greater than
Love is greater than it all
Love is greater than
Love is greater than it all
I don’t wanna wait any longer
And this war within me
Is getting stronger by the day
Now there’s only one way
Just show up and say:
“I love who I am, I love who i was
And who i’m becoming” because
Love is greater than
Love is greater than it all
Love is greater than
Love is greater than it all
Love is greater than
The pain and suffering i’ve known
Love is greater than the days
When I feel all alone
Love is greater than everything
Love is greater

For You

FOR YOU
I would climb the highest mountain
Just to see you smile
And I would find a hundred thousand
Ways to show my Love
For You… For You
For You… For You
I would tear down all the walls
That stand between our Hearts
I would search to the ends of the earth
There's no distance too far
For You… For You
For You… For You
Don't you worry about a thing my darlin'
Look up ahead there's only sunshine comin'
Here we go, we're gonna keep on growin'
Every step, we're gonna let more Love in
Let more Love in (Let more love in)
Let more Love in (Let more love in)
Let more Love in (Let more love in)
Let more Love in
We were chosen
For this moment
Gift to open
We get to live
We were given
This True Love and
It's enough
It's ours to give
And keep on growin’
I would wait as long as it takes
To see the clear blue sky
Til’ all the gray lifts away
And all the colours come to life
For You… For You
For You… For You
There's nothing I wouldn't do
For you… For you
There's nothing I wouldn't do
For you… For you
I love you so much
You don't even know, love
You don't even know how much
I love you so much
You don't even know, love
You don't even know how much

Listen

LISTEN
Have you heard a word I said?
Or are you all up in your head, now?
Thinking about what’s coming next
So we keep on disconnected
Can you let the feeling rise?
Without the need to run or hide
Just allow the bloody mess
Hold the space and take a breath
All I’m asking
Is for you to listen
Til’ there’s nothing left to say
And I don’t need to change a thing
I’ve been waiting my whole life
For you to wake up and realize
What loving really is
Embracing and accepting
I can understand your pain
And why you did what you did
Now i’m ready to forgive
So let’s start over again
All I’m asking
Is for you to listen
Til’ there’s nothing left to say
And I don’t need to change a thing
Won’t you listen, now?
Won’t you listen?
(Won’t you listen?)
(Won’t you listen?)
All I’m asking
Is for you to listen
Til’ there’s nothing left to say
And I don’t need to change
Won’t you listen?
Won’t you listen?
All I’m asking
Is for you to listen
Til’ there’s nothing left to say
And I don’t need to change

Pain

PAIN
Sometimes it’s hard
To open up my heart and let the love
All the way in, all the way out
But I know that’s what life’s all about
And right now it’s hard
And I just wish I could go back to being a kid
Cause no one wants to see a grown man cry
But I can’t hold it in, no I can’t lie
I’ve got this pain
Deep in my chest
It won’t go away
It won’t let me rest
Oh this pain, pain will be my death
Unless I learn, learn to accept
That sometimes it’s hard
And sometimes it brings us to our knees
Askin’ “Why?”
Beggin’ please
Let this pass
This hurt I feel inside
Cause I can’t run anymore
No, i can’t hide
From this pain
Deep in my chest
No matter how much I pray
It won’t let me rest, won’t let me rest
Oh Lord this pain, pain will be my death
Unless I choose, choose to accept
Sometimes it’s hard
And alll I need, all I need
Si the the courage to hold what’s achin’ in me
Let it be, until I’m free
Free from this pain
Deep in my chest
I’ve tried everything
Still I can’t, I can’t rest
Oh this pain, pain will be my death
Unless I learn, learn to accept
Let it burn, til there’s nothin’ left

GOLDEN
Sometimes I feel like I’m losing ground
On the life I thought I would have by now
There’s a place in me deep in my heart and bones
Where I ache to see what i’ve always know
Yeah that feeling like the birds are flying
High above the trees that fill the forest
And it’s bathed in light
Like the sun that’s coming up on a new moment
Heaven’t present and it’s golden
And there’s no time, just us and life
We’re One… One.
Sometimes it seems like we’re losing touch
With who we could be if we lead with love
Live from the place that exists in both of us
Where we never lose faith, where we never lose trust
Yeah that feeling like the butterflies
Are fluttering inside our love is flowin’
The tides are rising
The waves are crashing down and breaking
All the walls have fallen gates are open
And there’s no fight, just us and life
We’re One…
One…
We’re One…
One…
Sometimes I dream that we’re floating free
From the burdens that weigh us down and come between
Who we are in our deepest hearts
Who we’ve been since before the start
Yeah that feeling the heat inside
The center of the fire, flames are roaring
And the sparks ignite
From the ethers to the here and now
Through the ashes feel and hear the sound, behold it
Til there’s no plight, just us and life
We’re One… One.

WORTHY
It’s time to let go
Open to receive
I welcome more flow
Each time I release
I am worthy of it all
Whatever I do
I’m capable
I am worthy of it all
Whatever I choose
Is possible
I’m ready to give
These gifts of mine
Let love in
And let my light shine
I am worthy of it all
Whatever I do
I’m capable
I am worthy of it all
Whatever I choose
Is possible

UNLEASH
I’ll suspend my disbelief
As long as you lead
I’ll trust a little deeper
If you open my eyes to see
I’ve been carryin’ this grief
Does it even belong to me?
I’m ready to open wide
Ready to release
So much of what I feel
All the ways that I be
I was taught to hide away
Felt like I couldn’t breathe
Now i’ve got to take a chance
Bettin’ it all on me
This time I’mma let it ride
Settin’ myself free
Who am i trying to please?
It’s either you or me
I’d rather tell the truth
And let myself unleash
Hey hey
Who am I trying to be?
What permission do I need?
Nothin’ else really matters now
As long as I believe
I believe
I believe
I pretended all this time
That I’m some kind of weak
But i’ve got the power
My own electricity
I kept all inside
Can they really handle me?
I’m ready to stoke the fire
Full intensity
It’s a force of nature
Like a wild untamed beast
A hunger I can’t deny
Famine to feast
Comin’ home to my desire
No apologies
Time to take what’s mine
Settin’ myself free, hey hey
Who am i trying to please?
It’s either you or me
I’d rather tell the truth
And let myself unleash
Hey hey
Who am I trying to be?
What permission do I need?
Nothin’ else really matters now
As long as I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
(Ooooh… hit me with the truth)
(Singin Ooooh’.... You can hit me with it)
(Ooooh… hit me with the truth)
(Singin Ooooh’.... You can hit me with it)
Show me who you are
I wanna know
What is real
And what’s for show
Listenin’, listenin’
Once and for all
Listenin’, listenin’
Once and for all
(Ooooh… hit me with the truth)
(Singin Ooooh’.... You can hit me with it)
(Ooooh… hit me with the truth)
(Singin oooh’.... You can hit me with it)
Hit me with, hit me with (Ooooh)
Hit with me with the truth (Hit me with the truth)
Hit me with, hit me with (Singin Oooh’...)
Hit with me with the truth (You can hit me with it)
(Ooooh… hit me with the truth)
(Singin Ooooh’.... You can hit me with it)
(Ooooh… hit me with the truth)
(Singin oooh’.... You can hit me with it)

BACK TO LOVE
We’ve had our differences
Arguing, pointing fingers, oh the blamin’
The name callin’
But deep down underneath it all
You and me who we really are, the same
So let’s make peace and remember
It all comes back
It all comes back to Love
To love
We can keep our distances
Keep on judging, holding grudges, separatin’
Unless we break the silence
Get down to the heart of the matter
We’re connected, true reflections, no escapin’
So let’s face each other come together
It all comes back
It all comes back to Love
To love
I don’t know about you
But I don’t want to be two
I would rather be One
Imagine what we could become
I would rather not fight, no
I don’t need to be right, so
Let’s let nothing divide us
Instead let’s amplify Love
It all comes back
It all comes back to Love
To love
In our hearts the more we listen
Learn to practice forgiveness
Here it comes again division
Nothin’s stopping our mission
Yeah, we’re gonna go the distance
Cause in truth we’ve got no limits
Guided by our intuition
We’re the new rebel resistance
It all comes back
Oh It all comes back to Love
To love
It all comes back
It all comes back to Love
To love

IN JOY
Well, this seems like one of those days
Where everything’s gonna be amazing
What could possibly go wrong?
If we keep on rollin’ along
And just let it flow like the waves
Dancin’ on the shore as they break
I imagine that they’re celebrating
If they had a voice they would sing
Let’s just enjoy this moment
While we have it, we’ve still got it
Whether we’re coming or we’re going
Let’s just breathe in and believe it
Cause there’s magic and miracles all around
Just take one look up at the stars and feel the ground
Beneath our feet, we’re so lucky
We’re a part of these true mysteries
There’s a rainbow of colours that comes from the clouds
After the rain and the golden rays keep shinin’ down on us
No matter what we do we’re loved
There’s no way, not one, we could mess this up so…
Let’s just enjoy this moment
While we have it, we’ve still got it
Whether we’re coming or we’re going
Let’s just breathe in and believe it
And there’s nothing impossible unless we say it is
And if we can think of it, we can create it
So what kind of world are we gonna make?
I dream of one where Love is King
And Queen, I’m gonna treat you
The very best I can, I’ll give my all use my two hands
Whatever you need, you can count on me
I’ll be there by your side so come now let’s go for a ride
Let’s just enjoy this moment
While we have it, we’ve still got it
Whether we’re coming or we’re going
Let’s just breathe in and believe it
Oh does it really have to end?
I wish this could last forever
Oh I’ve got so many more questions
Where do we go to next and what comes after?
How do we ever really know?
How do we love and let go?
So let’s sing
Hey hey
Hey, hey
Let’s just enjoy this moment
While we have it, we’ve still got it
Whether we’re coming or we’re going
Let’s just breathe in and believe it
