Reasons

Verse1
Ordinary miracles, mark the way
Your sleepy smile at start of day
The kindness felt, that we repay
Those soft sheets at end of play

Chorus
Sense that breeze on your skin
Whispered music on the wind
Moments of softness without purpose
That stir the reason Within

Verse2
The Red sky in the morning
The cloud, dawns light adorning
A candle in the window placed
As sunset glows for nights embrace

Chorus
Sense that breeze on your skin
Whispered music on the wind
Moments of softness without purpose
That stir the reason Within

Verse3
The smell of rain, from cloudy sky
The swirl of leaves floating by
A knowing touch, your hand on heart
Our life together, the quiet part

Bridge
Some futures fall, some markets rally
Your bank accounts final tally
As twilight falls, soft moments swell
Your life’s worth at the Closing bell

Chorus
Sense that breeze on your skin
Whispered music on the wind
Moments of softness without purpose
That stir the reason Within

US

Verse1
Oh my love, where did we go wrong
No harmony in our swan song
I ache for a prime which is past
I cry cause I thought we would last


Chorus
There’s a speck in my eye to be honest
But you can’t see me for the forest
I’m mad cause I feel so unheard
I’m sad cause I loved how we were

Verse 2
My eyes they are sore and scratchy
As that wool overhead gets patchy
Why did it take me so long?
together I thought we were strong

Chorus
There’s a speck in my eye to be honest
But you can’t see me for the forest
I’m mad cause I feel so unheard
It’s sad cause I loved how we were

Verse2
My love for you is diminished
Your behaviour now means we’re finished
All the years I gave to you, gone
never singing from the same song

Bridge
There’s a speck in my eye, if I’m honest
But you can’t see me for the forest
I ache for our past, we were solid
I don’t respect you now and that’s horrid

Chorus
There’s a speck in my eye to be honest
But you can’t see me for the forest
I’m mad cause I feel so unheard
It’s sad cause I loved how we were

JOY

Verse 1
A Joyous Humbug, cynics all
This Christmas, let your guard fall
ghostly reminders, just lean into
feel the joyful vibe come through


Chorus
Come on, get your Joy on
Your upside down frown on
Get that Christmas time on
Come, Enjoy the Joy

Verse 2
No Blah Blahs, or whatever’s, please
negativity, is just a tease
Those Christmas gifts, are joy shared
In that thought, your heart’s repaired


Chorus

Verse 3
Carols, candles, reindeer bells
Star and stable, the first nowell
Time of wonder, full of light
Come on then, with joy unite

Chorus

Bridge
There’s love, singing from the radio
Sweet movies, set in falling snow
Christmas feasting, turkey, pudding
Hardest hearts see Joy intruding

Chorus
Come on, get your Joy on
Your upside down frown on
Get that Christmas time on
Come, Enjoy the Joy!

Lyric Sheena Hope

Verse 1
I’m sitting on the fence, I don’t have a view
I’m climbing down, when my mind follows through
I’m burning with shame, as glory it’s reflected
I’m hugging my heart to feel reconnected



Chorus
Forgiveness, like revenge, tastes better with time
The side I’ll come down on, the decisions mine.
you’re over the fence, I hope it is green
If the colour fades, don’t bother to climb.

Verse 2
I’m raising a smile to burn through the fog
I’m hearing the last from my groundhog
I’m deciding it’s time I lifted a flag
To start my life without your hashtag


Verse 3
I’m liberating myself, unraveling threads
Entanglement theory, crushed in a bed
I’m smelling a place, a green, green space
I’m accepting reality, I hope with grace


Bridge
I’m allowing forgiveness lots of free reign
I’m denying revenge, it causes pain
Thanks for forcing me over that fence
I’m enjoying the colourful consequence.

Last Chorus
Forgiveness, like revenge, tastes better with time
The side I’ve come down on, that decisions mine.
you’re over your fence, I hope you see green
If the colour fades, don’t bother to climb

28

Verse 1
beautiful, this game of life
dutiful faith through the strife
Raising the roof with our song
We never lose when we belong

Chorus
Many men may try to tame us
Many times we have been low
We raise Voices in hope not hate
Now we’re here after 28,
28

Verse2
Our celebrations they go viral
As we allow our hope to spiral
Our Joys on the Richter scale
We’ve already won, so we can’t fail

Chorus

Bridge
The Hampden roar, we did deploy
A Glorious undefeated joy
Strong Voices chant hope not hate
To keep winning after 28
To keep winning after 28

Chorus

Please Yourself

Chorus
I’m gonna please myself
Do what I want to do
I’m gonna be a boss
to myself be true

Verse1
No more, yes girl, my bags are full
Fed up carrying the weight of you
I’m gonna push back, that’s what I’ll do
Nothing else is up to you.

Chorus

Verse 2
Happiness and light now shining through
I’m not on a dimmer set by you
never the worm, but a tumbling girl
flexible in every turn

Chorus


No is a sentence, No. No. No.
Yes, if it pleases me, otherwise burn
I’m gonna please myself today
You forfeit your right of sway.

Chorus

Bridge
Always time for every other one
When did my needs disappear?
always the last in line my dear
Well I’m first in my queue of one.

Chorus

Mountain climb

Verse 1
I think of you always, as often as I breathe
It’s involuntary without a reprieve
The pain of our parting is still there today
Time is an enemy carrying you away
​
Chorus
I look at my life and the decisions I’ve made
Regrets I take with me all the way to the grave
I’m aware no prayer can turn back time
Cause my heart starts each day with a mountain climb

Verse 2
I hope you’re happy and blessed with good things.
I’ll love you forever, whatever life brings.
In my heart, I rehearse conversations with you
But my mouth can’t deliver what I know to be true.

Chorus

Verse 3
So while I’m breathing, I hope for the best
You’re here on this planet and for that I am blessed
We don’t have contact and that’s not ok
But you’re in my heart always and that’s where you’ll stay

Bridge
Do you hate me I wonder, or think of me still.
Years of silence haunt me and always will
Inside is a hollow, shaped just like you
God knows, this ache can still break me in two

Last chorus
I look at my life and the decisions I’ve made
Regrets I take with me all the way to the grave
I’m aware my prayers never turned back time
but some days the mountain is easier to climb

Lyric Sheena Hope

Wishes

Verse1
I wish to forget, and remember when
Hidden moments were beyond my ken
Halcyon days, with amazing views
Innocence and ignorance without excuse

Chorus
Wishes, for a past, ever true
The future splashed a different hue
Time, with kindness imbue
Tomorrow's thoughts, let trust accrue

Verse2
I wish those memories, remained obscure
I miss the past without detour
I wish the path that led to here
No lift of chin, no shed of tears

Chorus

Verse3
Will the games of love renew?
From frosty starts to a warm review
We made it here, from a flawed there
Let's roll the dice, and maybe we’ll go to the next square.

Chorus

Bridge
Will your wishes and sorries ring true?
Time and trust, eat the pudding through?
I wish love stamina, keeping it cool
From articulate others and no pedestal view

Last Chorus
Wishes, for a past ever true
Our future splashed a different hue
Time, will love imbue
Tomorrow's thoughts, and trust accrue
