Lyrics by Gordon Alexander Reeves
Who Holds The Reins - Acoustic and Piano
Genres: Rock, Progessive
Who holds the reins What are we destined for Can we steer our way Who can cure the pain The sands are shifting Those who are leading Love themselves and use us as pawns They have no heart and have to go Who holds the reins Who can cure the pain We’re being lead down the path The path to destruction Only they will endure the fire they bring They don’t care but take care of themselves Who holds the reins What are we destined for Can we steer our way Who can cure all our pain What are we destined for Can we steer our way Our home is being ruined each day They don’t care but take care of themselves Getting richer and richer at our expense We have to wise up and steer our own way Who holds the reins Who can cure the pain What are we destined for Can we steer our own way What are we destined for Who holds the reins Who can cure the pain We have to steer our own way Steer our own way

No Place To Roam (Aria Alta)
Genres: Pop, Rock, Progessive, Dance
The only place that we really even know Every day we wake up and spin around the Sun If we’re lucky we wake up beside the ones we love We can plant the seeds and let them grow There is no other world on which we can be alive At least not within spitting distance of where we stand If we’re lucky and pull together we can make this work We plant the seeds and hope that they’ll survive The only place that we really even know We can plant the seeds and let them grow We stand on the edge and look into the canyon below Such beauty and wonder beneath our feet Millions of years have brought us to this point It’s up to us to feel our way and make a plan to follow The only place that we really even know Every day we wake up and spin around the Sun If we’re lucky we wake up beside the ones we love We can plant the seeds and let them grow There is no other world on which we can be alive At least not within spitting distance of where we stand If we’re lucky and pull together we can make this work We plant the seeds and hope that they’ll survive The only place that we really even know We plant the seeds and let them grow This floating sphere that we find ourselves on is our only home Make sure you let everyone know we have no other plan No where else we can escape to if we make it uninhabitable This planet Earth is our only home there is no other for us to roam The only place The only place that we really even know We spin and spin around the sun Wake up and let’s make our way This is our only home There is no other for us to roam There is no other This is our only home

Sun Goes Down (Male and Female vocals)
Genres: Rock
Woke this morning with the sunshine on my face A nice warm shower to get me started Coffee gave me courage to face the race Ran for the bus to take down town Lots of people milling around the square Someone's preaching on the corner Maybe he’s saving us from all our sins? The morning’s gone and its so much warmer Life is good and getting better Lot’s of friends and things to do Reading books and writing letters Looking forward to catching up with you Life is good and getting better I’ll be there early so I’ll order drinks Gin and Tonic or glass of wine? I’ll do my best to get the corner bay So we can talk, you can tell me about your day The sun's gone down and the crowds are leaving We should make our way back to your place Another bottle of wine and a fabulous evening Next we know…. the sun will be shining on both our faces Life is good and getting better Lot’s of friends and things to do Looking forward to seeing other places Next we know the sun is shining... on our faces Life is good and getting better It’s so good and much much better Love being with you after the sun goes down Love being with you after the sun goes down After the sun goes down

The Way You Make Me Feel
Genres: Pop, Rock
I’m amazed at the way you make me feel Even when you’re just walking at my side In the morning waking up beside you The tingles begin that make me feel so real The way you laugh and sometimes tease Your smile, the way you swish your hair The way you walk and the way you talk Everything about you shakes me to my knees Love the way you make me feel I love the way you walk I love the way you talk The way you make me feel so real I can’t explain it in words, maybe it’s a potion The way you make me feel is so electric I feel alive and wide awake, it builds me up Flooding through me, with such emotion The way you make me feel so so real The way you laugh and sometimes tease The way you walk and the way you talk Your smile and the way you swish your hair Everything about you brings me to my knees I’m amazed at the way you make me feel Even when you’re just walking at my side In the morning waking up beside you The tingles begin and make me feel so real Love the way you make me feel I love the way you walk I love the way you talk The way you make me feel so real I’m amazed at the way you make me feel Even when you’re just walking at my side In the morning waking up beside you The tingles begin and make me feel so real Love the way you make me feel I love the way you walk I love the way you talk The way you make me feel so real Your smile and the way you swish your hair The way you walk and the way you talk I love the way you make me feel The way you make me feel

Where Are We Going
Genres: Pop, Rock
What are we doing, where are we going The weather’s changing, the Earth is warming Water is getting scarce, Population’s growing, It’s only us, the people, who are worrying Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk Our politicians are raging and making war For our kids to fight and be the victims Bombs are hurling in all directions People are dying all over the planet Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk Bombs and famine, they don’t need to happen Our leaders, both religious and politicians Need to dial it back and curb their ranting Talk the talk and walk the walk, stop the killing Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk Stop the killing, walk the walk and talk the talk Rivers are running dry, the crops are failing Lakes are drying, the forests are burning These sad fools, are strutting and preening They need to be gone so we can start turning Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk What are we doing, where are we going Population’s growing, water is getting scarce The weather’s changing, the Earth is warming It’s only us, the people, who are worrying Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk We can’t go on ignoring all the signs around us We need to stop the destruction of our only home We’re speeding headlong into hell on earth Our children’s children will not survive the mess we're leaving We can’t leave it to those in their ivory tower We've got to wake up and take the Power What are we doing, where are we going It’s only us, the people, who are worrying Stop the killing, talk the talk and walk the walk Stop the killing, walk the walk and talk the talk Stop the killing, wake up and take the power

Bestseller

Scribbling away to get the words down on paper Deadline’s come and gone and come and gone again Can’t really push this off for later Have to get out of this block before I go insane Gotta make the New York Times best seller list No ifs and buts this time, I’m working to the formula Word for word, page by page, you get the gist Don’t know if I can stay awake, I’m working on my stamina Cups of coffee, take break, more cups of coffee Read some Baldacci, read some Patterson Maybe I should try some peppermint tea Maybe I should read some Clancy or some Grisham Save the words I might hit the wrong key Erase the file and have to start from scratch I have an idea that will spice up the plot Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot Bestseller Scribbling away to get the words down on paper Deadlines come and gone and come and gone again Can’t really push this off for later Have to get out of this block before I go insane Gotta make the New York Times best seller list No ifs and buts this time, I’m working to the formula Word for word, page by page, you get the gist Don’t know if I can stay awake, I’m working on my stamina Cups of coffee, take break, more cups of coffee Read some Baldacci, read some Patterson Maybe I should try some peppermint tea Maybe I should read some Clancy or some Grisham Save the words I might hit the wrong key Erase the file and have to start from scratch I have an idea that will spice up the plot Deadline coming, I should finish on the dot Gotta make the New York Times best seller list No ifs and buts this time, I’m working to the formula Word for word, page by page, you get the gist Don’t know if I can stay awake, I’m fading fast Bestseller?

Edge of Darkness
Genres: Rock
We’re gonna get through this together
Even if it takes us ‘til forever
All we have to do is hold tight
Be strong and ready for a fight
We’re standing on the Edge of Darkness
Looking to the side of Angels
There’s a long hard and bumpy road ahead
We’ve got to get there before we lose the thread
Twists and turns and ups and downs
Fighting off the clucking clowns
We’re standing on the Edge of Darkness
Looking to the side of Angels
We’re gonna get through this together
Even if it takes us ‘til forever
All we have to do is hold tight
Be strong and ready for a fight
We’re standing on the Edge of Darkness
Standing on the Edge of Darkness
Darkness
Looking to the side of Angels
Let's take the courage to stop the Dark
Stand together and do what's right
Bringing reason back in sight
Meet each other in the light
Take the journey cross the abyss,
Leave the Darkness far behind
Join us on the side of Angels
On the side of Angels
Side of Angels
Of Angels
