It's hard to love a woman just as she deserves / Her heart is like an ocean and I’m lost in the surf / A thousand waves could carry me to the land of sweet perfume / Waves might dance beneath a moonbeam but the tide waits on her cue / My heart is your heart and I can’t bare to let you down / My world is your smile / Baby let me be your clown / How many times have I let you down / Time and again now I’ve lost count / You know my soul from the inside out but still I can’t figure you out *** Sailin on your seas I’m changing / Down upon my knees I’m waiting for you to shine on down / Sweet starlight this clown / All I am / Smiles and sorrows / In one breath you hold all my tomorrows ***

Heaven knows you're just my type / From your freckles to your baby toes you taste just right / I don’t how I don’t know why you chose me / Heaven knows I don’t deserve / Such a woman with a heart of gold / And the perfect curves / I don’t know how I don’t know why you chose me / Heaven knows I love you / No one else above you / You make my heart beat so fast / Every day I want to shout to everyone that love is love is love is love and ours was made to last / Heaven knows every star that shined / The night you cast me in your glow and I thank God you walked into my life / I don’t know how I don’t know why you chose me *** Heaven knows our souls, our story / The shape of your heart when you hold me / Wouldn’t tear us apart or disown me baby you’re my one and only girl / Light this world with the sweetest sound ***

What kinda good is money when famine comes round / Stifle a million voices these walls gonna get loud / Let it out, get down / Luna llena serenade us now / Golden desert you are not quite what you seem / Under a concrete cover, a beautiful queen / Let it out, get down / Let freedom find you running in the rain / Been round world / I’ve seen your eyes / Your heavy hearts beat just like mine / These colors weigh on you and me / There ain’t no stopping us when there’s a beat / Don’t you sweat the latitude you ain’t got a thing to prove / Let it out get down DANCE / Left and right know what to do / Shake the devil off your shoes / Let it out, get down DANCE / Come on come on let it out / Come on come on, get down / Come on come on let it out get down DANCE / Try on a different sound with a silk melody / Soon you’ll be shining bright like a jewel of the east / Let it out, get down / Give your doubting heart some room to breathe *** San Jose pura vida Amman / Swim in the red sea like Aqaba / Barquisimeto to Merida un dos tres cuatro Diaz / Santiago hasta Samarkand / Riyadh Dahran mafi mushkila / Guatemala Morelia Buenos Aires we gonna see ya ***

Miracle

Staring in the mirror in a room for rent / Tracing every flaw with her eyes / All she ever wanted was somebody to love her deeper than her body lines / Every criticism comes back around / Drop the needle play on repeat / Like a flare to the heavens she yells aloud / Is it too much to want somebody to need for me / And Tell me baby hear the words i’ve been given / You were made in the perfect image / Babe you are a miracle / May you never feel invisible / Babe you are a miracle / May you never feel less than a miracle / Her smile is golden, her heart is raw / She’s only known a love in the dark / Like gravity i’m holding through it all to the one who sets my heart on fire / How many teardrops have yet to fall / Before she sees i’m right by her side / Grant me the patience to break down the wall / To hold her hands and look her right the eyes / Tell her baby / Hear the words that I’ve been given / You were made in the perfect image *** Mightier than a hurricane / More lovely than the rainbow from the rain / Lightning flashes and floods they dissipate / But you were made to remain ***

I suffer in your lightbeam / Caught up in this whole thing / Nevermind what i need / I suffer with you / Every eye upon me / Everybody waiting / Nevermind that i’m shaking / I suffer with you / I’ll never settle for less than love / Less than you / Less than us / Stop for a minute when you’re up above / And look down to see the view / Here’s to looking at you / Show me how you shine bright / I'll direct the spotlight / Tell my dreams to hold tight / I suffer with you / I know every heartbeat / Baby can you feel me / When you’re out living lovely / I suffer with you *** I suffer in your lightbeam / Caught up in this whole thing / Nevermind what i need / I suffer with you ***
