Christine 04:33
CHRISTINE (C.Morgan & S. Woodman) I know this girl. She really rocks my world. She feeds my addictions, strong drink and conversation. At the bottom of the sea is where you find all the pearls. I see her every day. She says, "Come back tomorrow kid and you don't have to pay." I leave a couple of bucks. She says, "Hey girl, good luck. I know I'm gonna see you on the TV one day." Christine. Your heart's an open window. What a beautiful scene. You're workin' in a bar. Don't think you're gettin' far. You don't even know that to me you are a star. She has a baby boy. A big white house full of hugs and full of toys. We all have a past. Some loves never last, but that's not gonna stop her from finding her joy. Christine. Your heart's an open window. What a beautiful scene. You're workin' in a bar. Don't think you're gettin' far. You don't even know that to me you are a star. Now when she finds the time to live her life, she's takin' pictures. She looks for shining stars to read her cards. She knows life's not bad, but does it have to be so hard. The wind blew my way. I took the first bus out of town. You decided to stay. You were following your heart. I was just getting my start. Our lives are different now, but our dreams are the same. Christine. Your heart's an open window. What a beautiful scene. You're workin' in a bar. Don't think you're gettin' far. You don't even know that to me you are a star.

Wednesday 03:15
WEDNESDAY (C.Morgan & S.Woodman) Wednesday is just another day, but it's the furthest day from my heart. It'll be the first time and the first place. The fear is only knowing you can stay or you can go. Go from your heart. Finally figured out what I had to do. Should have known right from the start. I got my ticket now and a list of things to do. I've been waiting for so long. Now it's time for me to finish my song. Wednesday is just another day, but it's the furthest day from my heart. It'll be the first time and the first place. The fear is only knowing you can stay or you can go. Go from your heart. I know I'm older now. I can barely move. Believe me when I say I'm a kid at heart. And when it's in your blood you've got nothing left to lose I've been waiting for so long. Now it's time for me to finish my song Wednesday is just another day, but it's the furthest day from my heart. It'll be the first time and the first place. The fear is only knowing you can stay or you can go. Go from your heart. It took a lot of time for me to give up on you. You took a lot of me, but you didn't know what else to do. I got a lot left in me and now I need something new. Wednesday is just another day.

WAKE FROM THE NIGHT (C.Morgan & S.Woodman) I try to learn something everyday It always comes to me in the strangest of ways Sometimes it’s live just for the day, Sometimes there’s always gonna be another day I try to do what I think is right I’d rather walk away then start a fight Don’t try to change those who do as they please Always say sorry, thank you, and please And as I lay on this hill with the sun shining oh so bright Can’t tell you how that I got here, but I know that it feels so right I am thankful, I am grateful For all that I’ve become a little bit of luck and a little bit of destiny and a whole lot of fun I am grateful, I am thankful That I finally overcame the fright The only thing that I want from you is to wake from the night I’ve been tryin to fight the make believe Trying to turn my joys into reality No sleep for those on the run No dreams for those getting it done I try to wake up when the sun does rise I know it doesn’t work for me every time But when i do i make a plan for the day yah,You gotta work if you wanna get paid I think of all I’ve become and I know that I’m winning the fight I know just how that I got here, and I know that it feels so right I am thankful, I am grateful For all that I’ve become With a little bit of luck and a little bit of destiny and a whole lot of fun I am grateful, I am thankful That I finally overcame the fright The only thing that I want from you is to wake from the night The seasons change, anticipation grows Enough with the blame, for only she knows The hands of time, they never lay to rest Life is to live and that’s your only test Ohhhh Ohhh Ohhh Ya yah yah yah You gotta wake when the sun does rise, You know it won’t work for you every time But when you do you make a plan for the day Yah you gotta work if you wanna get paid And when you find yourself there you’ll move on from all that was wrong You’ll see a smile on your face and you’ll know that you can sing along I am thankful, I am grateful For all that I’ve become With a little bit of luck and a little bit of destiny and a whole lot of fun I am grateful, I am thankful That I finally overcame the fright The only thing that I want from you is to wake from the night I am thankful, I am grateful For all that I’ve become With a little bit of luck and a little bit of destiny and a whole lot of fun I am grateful, I am thankful That I finally overcame the fright The only thing that I want from you is to wake from the night The only thing that I want from you is to wake from the night The only thing that I want from you is to wake from the night Wake from the night Wake from the night

IN OUR VERY OWN WAYS (C. Morgan & S.Woodman) An old rocker once said to me “If you ain’t havin fun, well you might as well be done” and it’s always been strange to me cuz he’s the only one who’s been draggin it on on and on Well he’s been drinkin and moping and crying every day lettin everybody know it’s so hard to live this way I’ve been working and callin and doin all i can cuz that’s what it takes just to figure out a plan Who is wrong who is right working all the live long day Who is right who is wrong sleeping all the livelong day We all laugh, we all cry we all love, we all fight we all live, we all die in our very own ways My grandma once said to me “Dontcha worry bout the past...nothing ever lasts” and it’s always been strange to me cuz like a boat without a mast just one wave will make it crash one big crash Well she’s been kneeling and praying and preachin bout the man lettin everybody know if they don’t understand I’ve been saving and living and doin what is right just tryin to find a way to make it through the night Who is wrong who is right working all the live long day Who is right who is wrong sleeping all the livelong day We all laugh, we all cry we all love, we all fight we all live, we all die in our very own ways This big ol earth keeps spinnin round and round The sun keeps shinin on those underground The heavens are the dreams of those who are found and hell is just another word for when you’re down The cup stays full even if you ain’t thirsty enough to drink The mind ain’t empty if you take the time to think your life passes by as soon as ya blink so make your mind to float before you sink Who is wrong who is right working all the live long day Who is right who is wrong sleeping all the livelong day We all laugh, we all cry we all love, we all fight we all live, we all die in our very own ways

MORNING REVERIE (C. Morgan & S. Woodman) Woke up with the sunrise like any other day Just before the clock rang out to chase my dreams away I stayed in bed a minute more remembering where I’d been In my morning reverie and then the day began If you would have asked me what did the future hold Did I believe in knowing before the truth was told I would have answered truthfully, only god can see What waits beyond the moment past morning reveries Morning reveries distant memories They go on and on and on and on Morning reveries, the should and could have beens They go on and on and on and on The pages keep on turning and life’s forever changed You know we’re not so different we’re really just the same I’ll spare you all the details of the heartache and the pain Just take the saddest song you know and triple the refrain The hardest lessons learned break chains that bind the soul Like gold in the refiner’s fire the long less traveled road The choice is always ours to make not everyone will see That life is more than memories and morning reveries Morning reveries distant memories They go on and on and on and on Morning reveries, the should and could have beens They go on and on and on and on Ahhh Ahhh Ahhh Ahhh

FIX THAT JUKEBOX (C.Morgan & S. Woodman) There’s this one special song used to take me to that place A place I remember of happy times And it’s been so long since I held him in my arms Just one song For a nickle and two dimes Please fix that jukebox Just standin in the corner There’s just something about that sweet old song, my drink, and this place Please fix that jukebox He was my friend he was my lover I can hear that song on the radio I can hear it on my phone When I hear it on that box I see his face You don’t get much for charging a quarter That song brings back sweet memories I know you could use another beer cooler You should know how much that jukebox means to me Please fix that jukebox Just standin in the corner There’s just something about that sweet old song, my drink, and this place Please fix that jukebox he was my friend he was my lover I can hear that song on the radio I can hear it on my phone When I hear it on that box I see his face There’s this friend of mine that’s been known to fix a thing or two and I would love to write his number down There’s a song in there for me and I’m sure there’s one for you There’s a song for every heartbreak in this town. Please fix that jukebox Just standin in the corner There’s just something about that sweet old song, my drink, and this place Please fix that jukebox He was my friend he was my lover I can hear that song on the radio I can hear it on my phone When I hear it on that box I see his face I can hear that song on the radio I can hear it on my phone When I hear it on that box I see YOUR face

MY OLD FRIEND (C. Morgan & S. Woodman) Now we put the kettle on Chamomile tea As we settle in beside the fire. A cold december eve Shadows play within the light Caress with life’s embrace Incense of patchouli touches innocence and grace In the home of my old friend Music dances through the air Lingers on the flame We share a cup of nectar honey laughter’s sweet refrain Once again my spirit knows Serenity and rest Eternity of soul entwined with joyful happiness In the home of my old friend Not for us to know why The time and days between And if we knew If we knew We could not oh we would not change a thing We wouldn’t change a thing We would not change a thing And so I put the kettle on Chamomile tea Settled in beside the fire on a distant winter’s eve Memories return to me As day’s light fades away They’re with me now as I drink a cup on this this December’s day In the home of my old friend Mmmm

SIMPLE LOVE SONG (C. Morgan & S. Woodman) There are players and haters and liars and thieves. I don't want to be any of these. Big babies and maybes. Political greed taking away from those that need. And when you gave me that single rose, I didn't know just what to say, but you made the world a much better place to live for another day. And grandmas are dyin'. And babies are cryin'. And I am falling for you. There are gangsters and pranksters and bitches in heat, loving on a man wearing a ring Oh there are stoners and loners and boozers in need who don't see any good in a deed And when you gave me a diamond, you were there upon your knee, I knew that life could be a lovely place for you and for me. And the laws are failin'. And they keep on surveillin'. And I am so in love with you. And when you gave me your loving word for all the world to see, I knew I would wake up everyday with you right next to me. And the icebergs are floatin'. Oh the budget it bloatin'. And I will always love you. la dee da dee da la dee da dee da

“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent”
