Common Days

I've always wanted to make a bossa-nova sounding song

this isn't about a person, but a place

- Lyrics -

So long, the sun is falling, down

Slow down, and watch the fire, drown

In a little bit

Watch the sky go burning, burning

Cast a yellow glow

As the waves they churning churning

Sneak a little kiss

As our hands they holding holding

Sunlight in your eyes

[Instrumental]

Drive down, the winding coastal, road

Hair flying as the cool breeze, blows

Snap a couple pics

Feel the wheels they turning turning

See the sailing ships

On the sea they floating floating

Feel your cherry lips

As my heart it thumping thumping

Sparkles in your eyes

[Instrumental]

Feel the warm glow

Out the window

Feel the warm glow

Out the window

Feel the warm glow

Out the window

Sunlight in your eyes

[Instrumental]

A personal song about wanting to grow up again

- Lyrics -

If I could be small again

Be in mama's arms again

Nothing to do but play

If I could be a kid again

Make new friends again

Every day's a brand new day

Learning to live

Learning to laugh

Learning to be myself

If I could grow up again

Make new memories again

Replacing all the thorns

If I could be born again

Be born a little girl

Like I should have been born

Learning to live

Learning to laugh

Learning to be myself

Again

A Christmas song from someone who doesn't celebrate Christmas

- Lyrics -

On this foggy winter morning

I was riding on my bike

I don't believe in magic

But the world's a pretty sight

I hear cheerful people singing

I hear rustling in the trees

I see ferries on the water

Hiding in the gentle mist

Though I ain't got turkey dinners

Ain't got presents nor a tree

I still wish you a merry

Christmas Eve

[ukulele bridge]

Though I ain't got turkey dinners

Ain't got presents nor a tree

I still wish you a merry

Christmas Eve

- Lyrics -

When I was a young girl

I wished on magic

Nothing in the world is

Too far for me

The growing stack

Of school and work and obligations

Am I ever good enough

I looked into the night sky

I saw the constellations

The hunter, vase, and fishes

Told me their stories

I looked into the night sky

I saw a shooting star

I closed my eyes and wished for

Magic and wonder

What has my life become

Go back

Can I be a child again

Go back

I looked into the night sky

I saw the constellations

The hunter, vase, and fishes

Told me their stories

I looked into the night sky

I saw a shooting star

I closed my eyes and wished for

Magic and wonder

- Lyrics -

7 am the sun is shining through my bedroom window

Beckoning me to take a look

Why is it suddenly that there's a song inside my heart

The little bird singing 'bout hope

It's a good day

And I feel like I'm myself again

It's a new day

I can start over again
