My beautiful shadow angel
Protectively silent, ever faithful
Always by my side
Tucked away inside
Permanently linked
Perfectly synched
As close as a shadow can be
My angel is part of me
Just within reach
My shadow angel
My brilliant shadow angel
Magnetic, transparent, ever graceful
Like we’re sewn together
Light as a feather
Permanently linked
Perfectly synched
As close as a shadow can be
My angel is part of me
Just within reach
My shadow angel
My dazzling shadow angel
Absence of light, Ever grateful
Unison aligned
Stride for stride
Permanently linked
Perfectly synched
As close as a shadow can be
My angel is part of me
Just within reach
My shadow angel, angel
What is this feeling bursting inside?
As I knock on your door and it opens wide
My heart and brain are about to collide
I can’t decide if I should run or hide
Just look at me now, I’m petrified
Trying to act more posh and dignified!
This must be love
I always hoped someday it would come true
This must be love
Do you, do you, do you feel the way I do?
All the poets were right about this
It all begins with a kiss
Now I’m three feet off the ground
Don’t plan on ever coming down
This must be love
I always hoped someday it would come true
This must be love
Do you, do you, do you feel the way I do?
Timber, I’m falling so fast
Timber, watch out - I’m bound to crash
This must be love
I always hoped someday it would come true
This must be love
Do you, do you, do you feel the way I do?
Let there be no confusion
I’ve come to the conclusion
I’m certifiably head over heels
This must be love
I always hoped someday it would come true
This must be love
Do you feel the way I do?
Do you feel it?
Featuring Nick Hitchens on lead vocal
Will I ever get to see you again?
Will I get a second chance?
Could I wait until then?
I look for reassurance
That I will see you again
I fear the truth
I feel the pain
Nothing I can do
To stop this rain
from running down my face
Unbearable sadness
Desperately alone
Drowning in darkness
Broken hearted, on my own
So unfair!
What did we do wrong?
Would it be too much to ask
To have you back where you belong?
Will I ever get to see you again?
Will I get a second chance?
Could I wait until then?
I look for reassurance
That I will see you again
I fear the truth
I feel the pain
Nothing I can do
To stop this rain
from running down my face
Unbearable sadness
Desperately alone
Drowning in darkness
Broken hearted, on my own
Will I ever get to see you again?
Well I'ma goin' down to my favorite soda shop
They got this pretty little thing and I like her a lot
She’s sassy and she’s magical as a fairytale
She drives me crazy when she flips her ponytail
Can't get enough of that fluffy stuff
Slide me over a glass of that sody pop fizz
Shake me, bake me, rock me, squeeze me tight pretty miss
Whip me up some more of your delicious candy
Don’cha know it makes me feel a little bit randy
Can't get enough of that fluffy stuff
Cotton Candy Mama
Bring some home to Papa
Cotton Candy Woman
Keep your candy comin’
All night long!
Instrumental
So pink, so soft, so fluffy
Makes my lips feel puffy
Tastes like candy, smells like roses
Cotton candy stickin’ to our noses
Put my coins on the counter and leave a big tip
All you can eat for twenty-five cent
Baby, baby, baby, you know just what i need
I gotta have your candy, please don’t make me plead
Can't get enough of that fluffy stuff
Cotton Candy Mama
Bring some home to Papa
Cotton Candy woman
Keep your candy comin’
All night long!
Keep it comin’
All night long!
The songwriter turns Tears into Tunes
Pulls Melody from Misery
The songwriter pulls Poetry from Pain
Turns loss into gain
And all we have to do is sing
I write these songs for you and me
A portrait of harmony
A snapshot for eternity
And all we have to do is sing
We sing for Joy
We sing for Life
A celebration of Spirit
A declaration of Pride
I need to write one more song
for the two of us
It won’t take too long
In music we trust
We sing of Hope
We sing of Peace
We sing of a meaningful life
Or an honest one at least
The songwriter turns Grief into Grace
Anguish to Anthems
Sorrow to Ballads
Suffering into Hymns
And all we have to do is sing
We sing for Friends
We sing for Cheer
We sing for the World
We sing for all the
World to hear
Let me show you somethin' that I know you can dig
Talkin’ `bout a cat who got the craziest gig
Dancin’ for the folk down at the neighborhood joint
People came for miles around and that was the point
Everybody needed fun they all could enjoy
So let me introduce you now to Shuffle Boy
Shuffle Boy, the real McCoy, watch him glide – go, Shuffle, go!
Shuffle Boy, playboy, slide to the side - slide, Shuffle, slide!
Proper poise is paramount to positive appearance
Watch out, make room, give him a lotta clearance
Shuffle Shuffle, Shuffle Shuffle Boy
Demonstration, pay attention, listen up, yo
Exposition, Exhibition, follow the flow
Scintillating, oscillating, calling all Youth
The real deal, the whole truth, & nothing but the truth
So help me Chubby, the real Chubby Checker!
Shuffle Boy’s the new trend setter
Shuffle Boy, the real McCoy, watch him glide – go, Shuffle, go!
Shuffle Boy, playboy, slide to the side - slide, Shuffle, slide!
Proper poise is paramount to positive appearance
Watch out, make room, give him a lotta clearance
Shuffle Shuffle, Shuffle Shuffle Boy
Dooby dooby dooby dooby dooby doo wah!
Dooby dooby dooby dooby dooby doo wah!
Dooby dooby dooby dooby dooby doo wah!
Dooby Doo wah wah wah!
Shuffle Boy, the real McCoy, watch him glide – go, Shuffle, go!
Shuffle Boy, playboy, slide to the side - slide, Shuffle, slide!
Proper poise is paramount to positive appearance
Watch out, make room, give him a lotta clearance
Shuffle Shuffle, Shuffle Shuffle Boy, Shuffle Boy
Take my eyes, I don't need `em
Now that you’re gone
Nothing left to see (anyway)
Take my hands, what are they good for?
Now that you’re gone
There's nothing I need to feel
But don't take my memories
They mean more to me
Than all the histories
In the world
Don’t make this hard
Don’t take my heart
Take my ears, I don’t need `em
Now that you’re gone
I can’t hear your voice (anymore)
Take my lips, no one else I want to kiss
Now that you’re gone
You were my only choice
But don't take my memories
They mean more to me
Than all the histories
In the world
Don’t make this hard
Don’t take my heart
Take my arms and legs
My skin and bones
You can do your worst
With sticks and stones
But don't take my memories
They mean more to me
Than all the histories
In the world
Don’t make this hard
Don’t take my heart
Don’t take my heart
I miss you
I miss you so much
I stare at your photo all day
Hoping to meet you halfway
I know that you’re up there somewhere
I search for you prayer after prayer
I’ve only one heart to break
I miss you
I miss you so much
So much more I wanted to say
I still have some hope there’s a way
Is this just a really bad dream?
Or maybe a nightmare extreme?
I’ve only one heart to break
Part of me cried
And part of me died
There must be some terrible mistake
Tragedy magnified
The truth is I’m terrified
I’ve only one heart to break
I miss you
I miss you so much
It’s all so insanely tragic
I sure could use some magic
It’s rough being all on my own
So, please won’t you come back home?
I miss you
Take me with you
I really, really do miss you
What makes me think of you?
Only everything
How often do I think of you?
From morning 'til morning
I may be naive
But I still believe
I’ll see you soon
For everything reminds me of you
Sometimes it’s like you never left
In my heart there’s been a terrible theft
Still I love you even more
There’s only you I adore
I may be naive
But I still believe
I’ll see you soon
For everything reminds me of you
Everything I see, every single day
Reminds me of you in so many ways
All I have are memories
They compose my realities
Solitude is the best I can do
Seems to suit me if I can’t have you
I may be naive
But I still believe
I’ll see you soon
For everything reminds me
And nothing makes sense without you
Life goes on day after day
Hearts torn in every way
So, ferry cross the Mersey
'Cause this land's the place I love
And here I'll stay
People they rush everywhere
Each with their own secret care
So, ferry cross the Mersey
And always take me there
The place I love
People around every corner
They seem to smile and say
We don't care what your name is, boy
We'll never turn you away
So I'll continue to say
Here I always will stay
So ferry, cross the Mersey
'Cause this land's the place I love
And here I'll stay
And here I'll stay
Here I'll stay
Ferry Cross the Mersey written by Gerry Marsden
Lyrics ©1964 Pacermusic Ltd.
This happened once before
When I came to your door
No reply
They said it wasn't you
But I saw you peep through your window
I saw the light, I saw the light
I know that you saw me
As I looked up to see your face
I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
That's a lie
'Cause I know where you've been
I saw you walk in your door
I nearly died, I nearly died
'Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man in my place
If I were you I'd realize that I
Love you more than any other guy
And I'll forgive the lies that I
Heard before when you gave me no reply
I've tried to telephone
They said you were not home
That's a lie
'Cause I know where you've been
I saw you walk in your door
I nearly died, I nearly died
'Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man in my place
No reply, no reply

(a children's song)
Cherry Blossoms, Cherry Blossoms
Cherry Blossom blooms
Sakura Cherry Blossoms
Sing sad Gagaku tunes
By the light of the silver moon
What’s pink and white and comes from Japan?
With petals of five, since time began
The flavor is cherry, the fragrance is sweet
They never forget to visit each spring
Cherry Blossoms, Cherry Blossoms
Cherry Blossom blooms
Sakura Cherry Blossoms
Sing sad Gagaku tunes
By the light of the silver moon
Trees are frosted with pink cotton balls
They dance to Nature’s waltz
And when the gentle winds blow
There’s cherry blossom snow
In a world of cherry blossom trees
It only takes one very awesome breeze
A mountain of petals, so fragrant, so light
In a few weeks' time they’ll disappear from sight
This beautiful landscape reflected all around
In the tidal basin in the middle of town
Martin, George, Thomas, & Franklin watch
The setting sun melt like butterscotch
Cherry Blossoms, Cherry Blossoms
Cherry Blossom blooms
Sakura Cherry Blossoms
Sing sad Gagaku tunes
By the light of the silver moon
By the light of a Sakura moon
(a children's song)
Every morning my Secret Sunshine
Peeks through the curtains and paints with light
Rise and shine Get dressed Let’s go
Welcome the new day Good bye, Good Night
My Secret Sunshine is bright and radiant
Turns every curl of my hair to gold
I bathe my hands and arms in her sunbeam
Slips through my fingers impossible to hold.
My Secret Sunshine sails `round the globe
Ev'ry day of the year
But I won’t be sad, she'll soon be back
My Secret Sunshine belongs to me
My Sunshine follows me outside to play
She doesn't mind if I share her with friends
We are the best of best friends
Hope this wonderful day never ends
Open the backdoor, let in the fun
We want to go out and play in the sun
When the sky turns dark and showers rain down
My Sunshine watches through the clouds
Patiently waiting to send us a rainbow
Everything grows when rain hits the grounds
My Secret Sunshine sails `round the globe
Ev'ry day of the year
But I won’t be sad, she'll soon be back
My Secret Sunshine belongs to me
Belongs to me!
