Heart Song 03:48
Shaky starts Make the best beginnings Don't you think She was scribbling the story of her heart In red and pink She told me she'd decided And she knew where she would go I heard her dreaming from behind her door She sings La la la la la la From deep inside Where the stories hide And it seems there's nothing Standing in her way She's starting her life today Making all the lights change Red to green Because she's seen the end of everything Getting all her work done Under the last sun She knows that she will live on In the words of a heart song Steady hands Reaching for her notebook In the night With a cup of something warm To quench imagination fires She told me she hears echoes When the stars complete their fall I guess she's just a dreamer after all She sings La la la la la la From deep inside Where the stories hide And it seems there's nothing Standing in her way She's starting her life today Making all the lights change Red to green Because she's seen the end of everything Getting all her work done Under the last sun She knows that she will live on In the words of a heart song That girl was asleep for an age Lying dormant on an empty page Then time came in like a whirlwind An awakening began She was high up in her head But she's putting it all down She sings La la la la la la From deep inside Where the stories hide And it seems there's nothing Standing in her way She's starting her life today Making all the lights change Red to green Because she's seen the end of everything Getting all her work done Under the last sun She knows that she will live on In the words of a heart song

V 03:35
Do you ever look up And see the birds that fly in a V There's an arrow above That's sure to guide your footsteps to me Strong into the wind They beat their precious wings Feathers fall But you don't seem to notice Oh I hope you'll look up And see the V If there's ever a chance For you to run their shadow will lead If you're able to stand Amongst the fallen you will go free Deep into the day You steal yourself away Through the wire They won't even notice Oh I hope you will go And chase the V There are many stories to be told Stories young and old They cannot be prisoners forever They will fly free And fly in a V (Do you ever look up) Look up now Look up now (And see the birds that fly in a V There's an arrow above) Look up now Look up now (That's sure to guide your footsteps to me) Strong into the wind They beat their precious wings Feathers fall But you don't seem to notice Oh If you ever let go Or need a break from your harmony I just want you to know Your song is strong That voice never leaves me Just under the skin Their war will never win Steady hearts cannot be still forever Oh And home you will fly Amongst the V Oh And home you will fly Amongst the V

Falling 03:16
Distant dazes Nobody knows the world around them changes Ages We're growing up too fast to see the phases Any words you say Fly away I'm falling Falling Falling Falling And I'm Falling Falling Falling Falling Eyes swim Ears drown Nobody knows the healing that the old sound Brings round I wouldn't trade the feeling for this whole town Any words you say Make my day I'm falling Falling Falling Falling And I'm Falling Falling Falling Falling Don't know why I feel this way It must be something Beautifully bold Taking hold I'm falling Falling Falling Falling And I'm Falling Falling Falling Falling
