LIFE
Written by April BLackman

Life / It's so strange / It's full of fun and games / Then sorrow and pain / It's empty, yet so full / It feels so warm and then so cold / Will I ever understand the meaning of life? Oooh life / I just don't know / The pain and despair / It sometimes feels so unfair / The friends you've cherished / they've turned so cold / It seems like they've all traveled home to their own world / Will I ever understand the meaning of life? As the day passes by life gets more painful to bear / There are few around you who really care / You look side to side for a shoulder to cry / And everyone just passes you by. Oooh life / Oh how I long to see / When I will live my life in peace and harmony / When pain and sorrow will be no more / And loneliness will walk out the door / Maybe then I will understand the meaning of life / I really hope that I understand the meaning of life.

YOU'RE NOT ALONE
Written by Avion Blackman Mohr and Mark Mohr

Strolling the streets all alone on the wrong side of town / Combing the beach on your own there's no one else around / Lost in the dark by yourself not a sight nor a sound / Stranded at sea without help and you fear you may drown. CHORUS: You're not alone / I'm here with you / Guiding you on / All you go through / I'll never leave you / You know I love you / You're not alone / You know I care for you / Just trust in me / You're not alone / I'm here with you / I'll never leave / Nor forsake you / You know I love you / You're not alone / You know I care for you / You're not alone / I'll never leave you / You're not alone / I'll be right there for you / Just trust in me / La la, la la la / Oh ohh… Lost in a crowd and anxieties getting you down / First day of school with no friends and your in a new town / On the side of the road engine troubles your car's broken down / Left brokenhearted (with) no one to console you around / (Chorus) / (Breakdown) / (2nd half of Chorus).

YOU'LL RETURN
Written by Garfield Blackman

When Life has put you down / And there's no one around / Your loved one's (are) out of sight / Your day has turned to night / And your losing / Your losing the fight / When there's no where to turn / None to call your own / Your heart and spirit (are) broken / And there's no one to lean on / Illusion, frustration / All hope is gone. Pre-Chorus: If you look up you would see / Me waiting patiently / To welcome you to me / On your lips I'll put a song / I'll forgive all your wrongs / Again you will be strong / CHORUS: You'll return where you belong / You'll return where you belong / You'll return where you belong / You'll return / You'll return where you belong. With arms open-wide / I'll welcome you inside / Fill your heart with gladness / (And) remove all your sadness / Fulfill your dreams of happiness / Your life is my concern / (I'm) so glad you have returned / To your rightful domain / To love and joy no pain / Never will you wander ever again / (Pre-Chorus) / (Chorus 2X).
