Will
Friday Morning Sunrise
It’s a bold new day
It all snaps in place
And I’ll pop this world wide open for me
It’s crazy
No matter what they say
I’m gonna make my way
Gonna bend my fate up, carrying me
They’ll see
I’ve logged some miles and covered ground
Paid my dues and now I. . . feel like a
Friday morning sunrise
The good days just ahead
I feel this warm light shining from me
And I’ll make everything brightest yet
Got some rough plans made
But it’s come what may
Gonna jump on board to whatever hits me
We’ll see
Gonna hold my light
Through any haters’ spite
And I’ll stack this deck up purposefully
To a tee
I’ve got some skills and know-how down
And I’m wide open now and I. . . feel like a
Friday morning sunrise
The good days just ahead
I feel this warm light shining from me
And I’ll make everything brightest yet
Nothing’s stopping me from rising
Higher, higher, higher
Come with me
Be free, completely
Friday morning sunrise
The good days just ahead
I feel this warm light shining from me
And I’ll make everything brightest yet

Natural
Coming out of the rain
The bright horizon full frame
I slip right out of this skin
That was tattered and thin
To let you love me again
Without you, I survived
But good times felt so contrived
Now on some sweet wave of grace
You rode back my way
So I can love you again
You and me, yeah we got it down
You see…
‘Cause it’s a
Natural state
I love the
Natural way we
Fall into place here
Together, naturally
Fitting just like two spoons
Or voices in perfect tune
You and I are just right
Like a band so tight
We feel each other’s moves
You and me, yeah we got it down
You see…
‘Cause it’s a
Natural state
I love the
Natural way we
Fall into place here
Together, naturally
You’re my right arm and I
Need you like butterflies need wings to be beautiful
You and me, yeah we got it down
You see…
‘Cause it’s a
Natural state
I love the
Natural way we
Fall into place here
Together, naturally
Yeah, cause we’re a
Natural state
I love the
Natural way we
Fall into place here
Together, naturally

Let Her Go
You stay with me
And roll with all my ups and downs now
We sway roughly
But don’t fall overboard
You say it’s me
Uprising like a stormy sea
But that easygoing girl you need is not here
Let her go
That girl’s not real, just illusion
Let her go
She’s nothing more than a sham
I’ll explode this fantasy that you want me to be
Just take me, the real me, for who I am
It tortures me
This passion that I overflow with
So forcefully
Raw energy pours out
You love me, but still I wish that I could be
Lighthearted and way more carefree
I need … to…
Let her go
That girl’s not real, just illusion (just illusion)
Let her go
She’s nothing more than a sham (She’s just a sham)
I’ll explode this fantasy that I wish I could be
And love me, the real me, for who I am
It’s like I’m looking at a Vogue magazine
Can’t be perfection ‘cause that’s way too extreme
Let her go
That girl’s not real, just illusion (just illusion)
Let her go
She’s nothing more than a sham (She’s just a sham)
I’ll explode this fantasy I don’t need to be
And love me, the real me, for who I am
Let her go
That girl’s not real, just illusion (just illusion)
Let her go
She’s nothing more than a sham (She’s just a sham)
I’ll explode this fantasy I don’t need to be
And love me, the real me, for who I am

Living in a Love Song
First it was her or me
Yes, I won. Guess I’m lucky
Playlists you made for us
Made me sigh and blush
Songs are only moments
But we go on and on
It’s like we’re
Living in a love song on hit radio
Dancing through life in a top 40 show
Feeling every line as it’s ringing so true
Living in a love song with you
Back when things were shaky
Like the worst soap on TV
I had to turn right off
Every breakup song
But now that poor heart wrenching
Feels miles and miles from me
Because we’re
Living in a love song on hit radio
Dancing through life in a top 40 show
Feeling every line as it’s ringing so true
Living in a love song with you
Still, the best of songs just can’t capture this
monumental state of bliss
Living in a love song on hit radio
Dancing through life in a top 40 show
Feeling every line as it’s ringing so true
Living in a love song with you
Living in a love song on hit radio
Dancing through life in a top 40 show
Feeling every line as it’s ringing so true
Living in a love song with you

Extra Day
I want to make a new day
Between Tuesday and Wednesday
And bounce right out of the week
The clock would strike twelve at last
And we’d steal away so fast
A day for just you and me
Just like our own private island
‘Cause I need hours with you to extend
I want an extra day for you
I’d love to side step time, just us
We could slip off nice and smooth
Twenty-four hours with my sweet crush
A new day for you
Feeling bright as a daisy
We’d show up on Wednesday
Without missing a beat
My heart would be fully fed
My thirst for you newly quenched
Our sweet secret to keep
I want to take you and withdraw
I want to pause the whole world because…
I want an extra day for you
I’d love to side step time, just us
We could slip off nice and smooth
Twenty-four hours with my sweet crush
A new day for you
Our time is never enough
Let’s cross the date line and just run off
I need more you, but life just takes more me
Let’s jump into this opening
I want an extra day for you
I’d love to side step time, just us
We could slip off nice and smooth
Twenty-four hours with my sweet crush
A new day for you

Vinyl Voodoo
He likes the warm sound of vinyl, but his words are so cold
Got a thing for the music that’s old
The blues, his religion, and albums, his charms
He summons that guitar
And now I can’t do anything about it
And I fight but I’m under his spell
He spins that vinyl voodoo on me
He’s like a voodoo emcee, yeah
He makes that needle talk
And all my senses spin and fall
I can’t resist those blues
His vinyl is voodoo
His place smells of incense, and plants climb up the walls
In a frame, Dr. John’s down the hall
His cat is as black as a bayou new moon
I swear she feels my moods
And now I can’t do anything about it
And I fight but I’m under his spell
He spins that vinyl voodoo on me
He’s like a voodoo emcee, yeah
He makes that needle talk
And all my senses spin and fall
I can’t resist those blues
His vinyl is voodoo
Reclined on his couch
I melt to Toussaint
Then Snooks Eaglin comes on
And I’m gone
He spins that vinyl voodoo on me
He’s like a voodoo emcee, yeah
He makes that needle talk
And all my senses spin and fall
I can’t resist those blues
That vinyl is voodoo

Forgive Me for Not Forgiving You
Forgive me
for not forgiving you
Oh, it’s plain to see
You know what you do
Oh, yes you do
I’m trying to heal
And I don’t need point blank
I can’t bear the feel
Of your poison fangs
The slate’s not clean
And it’s broke in two
Forgive me
For not forgiving you
The slate’s not clean
And it’s broke in two
Forgive me
For not forgiving you

Sleepwalking to You
Climbing in through my dreams
You won’t let me forget you
Slinking right in between my
Soft bed sheets and my muse
Lured and I succumb
Now it feels like I’m
Sleepwalking to you
Slippin’ out under the moon
Drowsily I harken
You call me through the darkness and I’m
Sleepwalking to you
Stalking me in my mind, you
Echo like déjà vu
Glowing red neon signs speak
Pulling me back to you
Stretching through the shadows
You pull me through the willows
Sleepwalking to you
Slippin’ out under the moon
Drowsily I harken
You call me through the darkness and I’m
Sleepwalking to you
Drifting through the veil
Our spirits leave no trail
When our fingers touch
I never felt so much, so much
Sleepwalking to you
Slippin’ out under the moon
Drowsily I harken
You call me through the darkness and I’m
Sleepwalking to you

I’m Not Ready Yet You Tube video
You drew a picture of me and you
With purple crayon so sharp and new
And I felt richer than anyone
It said “I love you, from me to mom”
I read you books as you lay in bed
You had your favorites, you always said…
(Chorus 1)
Oh, come on
Please don’t make that the last one
Read it again like the last time
It’s too early for bed
I’m not ready yet
(V2)
You rode the school bus and made new friends
Stacked up those Legos until they fell
You went through clothes just like water then
You thought the big kids must be age 10
In early summer, you got a bike
I let go as you held on so tight
I said …
(Chorus 2)
I… I guess that push was the last one
You needed me for the last time
You can do it yourself
I’m not ready yet
(V3)
Now in the basement four boxes high
Near that old bike you’re too big to ride
That’s where your books went and all your toys
You had to save them, we had no choice
There in some papers of things you drew
I found that picture of me and you
And thought
(Chorus 3)
Ah, you never know it’s the last one
You never know it’s the last time
I’ll never forget
But I’m not ready and
Ah, you never know it’s the last one
You never know it’s the last time
Good days are ahead
But I’m not ready yet
