Breathe In Love ©2007 Dawnya Clarine & Tim Martin Let go of things that haunt you Let the past stay behind Let go of any anger or pain you might know Live today, and let it go CHORUS: Breathe in love, breathe out love Be here right now, now, now All we have is right now, now, now Live right now, now, now … right now Tomorrow is a day away Always out of reach Can’t control what happens … rain, shine or snow Live today, and let it go CHORUS: Breathe in love, breathe out love Be here right now, now, now All we have is right now, now, now Live right now, now, now … right now BRIDGE: If we have to hang onto something Look to peace, hope and love Want to talk about something Let’s share the good, the laughter, the fun The past is done, can’t get it back Future is still to be written Release control, go with the flow Yes live in the moment, and let the rest go CHORUS: Breathe in love, breathe out love Be here right now, now, now All we have is right now, now, now Live right now, now, now … right now

Why Am I ©2006 Tim Martin and Dawnya Clarine Inside I must have cried, no tears were ever shed Wasn’t really living, gray thoughts in my head Nothing, no one, mattered to me Why go on, I just couldn’t see CHORUS: Forgotten how to laugh, forgotten how to cry Floating along empty, watching life drift on by Asking why, why…why am I? You offered your hand, I was afraid Thought about running, but your strength made me stay You saw through to the one who is me Showed me life is more than I remembered it could be CHORUS: Forgotten how to laugh, forgotten how to cry Floating along empty, watching life drift on by Asking why, why…why am I? Bridge: Now my laughter and tears often mingle in a day Stepped out of the shadows, baby you led the way You helped me find passion, helped me risk pain Now I’m feeling, I’m loving, I’m living again FINAL CHORUS: I’d forgotten how to laugh, forgotten how to cry I’ve come back to life babe, I’m floating high Not asking why… why, why am I I’d forgotten how to laugh, forgotten how to cry You helped bring me back, now I know why Yeah I know why, why, why am I Yeah I know why… I know why …

Walking on Water Woke up this morning, went for a walk Surprised myself when I walked off the dock But even more surprised, I didn’t sink Not sure what happened, not sure what to think CHORUS: And now I’m walking on water, telling the truth I’m walking on water, turned my troubles loose yeah I’m walking on water, its sinking in I’m walking on water, I don’t have to swim Been in a rut, tried nothing new I was stuck in my ways, blind to all I could do That’s who I saw so I stepped off the dock Now I see I can do more than I thought CHORUS: And now I’m walking on water, I’m telling the truth I’m walking on water, turned all my troubles loose I’m walking on water, its sinking in I’m walking on water, I don’t have to swim BRIDGE: The current can’t take me where I don’t want to go Going my way, not with the flow Maybe after a day goes by I’ll run off the roof and learn how to fly … CHORUS: But now I’m walking on water, I’m telling the truth I’m walking on water, turned all my troubles loose I’m walking on water, its sinking in I’m walking on water, I don’t have to swim ©2006 Tim Martin & Dawnya Clarine

He’s Free ©2007 Dawnya Clarine & Tim Martin Whichever way the wind will blow Seems that’s where he will go Drifting on his secret sea Can’t stay in one place to long Or choose a favorite song Say who he is or who he wants to be CHORUS: I’m not complaining, he’s free Guess I’m complaining, he’s free No house, no car, no rings He lives a life of simpler things Doesn’t seem to take more than he needs Say’s he’ll never be tied down But when I need him he’s around Wonder which one matters more to me CHORUS: I’m not complaining, he’s free Guess I’m complaining, he’s free He’s right, I guess I’ve gotten numb No play, no having fun Wish I could be so much more like he is Yeah, his soul is kind and he laughs a lot Lives each day like it’s all he’s got Not afraid to be just who he is CHORUS: I’m not complaining, he’s free Guess I’m complaining, he’s free Guess I’m complaining he’s free Yeah I’m complaining ‘cause it’s not me Guess I’m complaining, he’s free Yeah I’m complaining, wish it was me … wish it was me… wish it was me

See their daughter, arms out free Twirling, dancing, laughing See their son, with his dog carefree Running, jumping, beaming At the moon CHORUS: Look forward, look back Look at yourself, who do you see?

Man on the Corner Man on the corner Ancient guitar Playing and singing for those passing by Played with a passion Pried from his soul Always a look of peace in his eyes He sang Ba, da,n, da, da lend a helping hand Ba, da,n, da, da la lemme see you smile Ba, da,n, da, da, la, la listen Ba, da, da, da, n, da, da, da, da, da Week after week Month after month There on his corner, rain or shine I felt comfort in his music Heard the wisdom in his words And saw the look of peace in his eyes He sang Ba, da,n, da, da love the little children Da da la love what you’re doing Ba, da,n, da, da la, la listen Ba, da, da, da, n, da, da, da, da, da Coins in his case Fortunes came and went Stranger touched as we passed by Small price to pay For his insights every day And to share the look of peace in his eyes He sang La, da, dad a, da do unto others Ba, da, as you would have them do La la n la la, love them like a brother Ba, da, da, da, n, da, da, da, da, da Never knew his name But I felt empty inside The day his corner went quiet Had few possessions But he had it all I knew he knew the secret by the peace in his eyes I’ll always hear his La, da, da, da da little words of wisdom, yes I will Da, da, do, da, da his lines of love Na, da, da, da, da, da singing on the corner Da, da, da he was sharing through his songs Ba, da, da he was teaching through his songs La, da, da, he was loving through his songs There was a man On the corner With a guitar, and a song, and peace in his eyes ©2007 Dawnya Clarine & Tim Martin

Opposites Attract Cool and Blue, thru and thru, baby that’s your plan Red and hot, all the things you’re not, make me who I am You take it easy all the way, never take a chance I jump off the flying jet and ask the clouds to dance CHORUS: Can’t explain it Together we’re more and that’s a fact Like Yang and Yin, like saint and sin Our opposites attract Step in time don’t break the line, that’s what you’re living for I gotta jump and jive, to stay alive, the rest is just a bore You’re wrapped up in the basic stuff, every day’s the same I need to have some highs and lows to keep me on my game CHORUS: Can’t explain it Together we’re more and that’s a fact Like Yang and Yin, like lose and win We're opposites and we attract Opposites and we attract Our opposites attract Time to unwind, come down from my high, ready to take it slow Then you're on fire, colors gone wild, changing stop to go Yeah, our roles flip flop, you’re still who I’m not, and I’m not at all like you We may change, one thing stays the same, your push pulls me close to you CHORUS: Can’t explain it Together we’re more and that’s a fact Like Yang and Yin, like out and in We're opposites and we attract Opposites and we attract Our opposites attract ©2007 Tim Martin & Dawnya Clarine

Little Girl Blue A father’s warm smile, a mother’s tender touch Things she never knew A parent’s love just fantasy and dreams, no love for Little Girl Blue A young love that meant everything to her Stolen passion for him, then he flew So love’s not love, it’s just loneliness and shame, no love for Little Girl Blue CHORUS: Little Girl Blue, she’s not little any more But she’s blue, through and through, just the same She keeps to herself, where no one can reach her, afraid of any more pain She hears your sweet words, wants to believe Longs for a love that’s true Yet she steels herself and walks away, no love for Little Girl Blue No love for Little Girl Blue, no love for Little Girl Blue, no love, no love for Little Girl Blue Don’t give up on Little Girl Blue, please believe in Little Girl Blue Don’t give up on Little Girl Blue, please believe in Little Girl Blue ‘cause love can win and maybe in time, she’ll leave behind, Little Girl Blue ‘Yes love can win and maybe in time, she’ll leave behind, Little Girl Blue Love can win, love can win, love can win ©2006 Tim Martin and Dawnya Clarine

Beautiful Eyes The look you give … plays tricks on my heart Plucks my strings and pulls me apart Never knew the windows to your soul Would take my life and make me whole CHORUS: Beautiful eyes, see to the heart of me Beautiful eyes see to the soul of me Beautiful eyes, find only the good in me Your beautiful eyes, see me Your gaze cuts through my fog like a light Seeing the spectrum not just my black and white Don’t know what you saw, but you didn’t blink Those beautiful eyes, took me in, in a wink CHORUS: Beautiful eyes, see to the heart of me Beautiful eyes see to the soul of me Beautiful eyes, find only the good in me Your beautiful eyes, see me Glance back and you’ll see on my face The look of love you’ll never replace Your eyes took me in, looked straight into my heart Now I’m looking ahead hoping we’ll never part CHORUS: Beautiful eyes, see to the heart of me Beautiful eyes see to the soul of me Beautiful eyes, find only the good in me Your beautiful eyes see me, free me, to be me © 2006 Tim Martin & Dawnya Clarine
