Mighty Heart by Matt Young
For Brandon
I think you know our story bout our boy with the mighty heart he almost died but he survived
sentences cannot be heard yet he speaks a thousand words right through his eyes through his eyes
Buraeucratic people look through eyes trained not to see the challnges we've spoken of yet your ears choose not to hear
come inside and learn about our boy with the mighty heart he's our pride cus he fought to live
Did I ever share with you our boy's got a cheeky smIle and he's damned tenacious cus he survived
but he needs his mother's caring eye when she should lay asleep cus she adores him like only a mother can
you academic brief cased nerds let money say what's best you don't stop to nurse him put your feelings to the test
Come inside and meet our boy, the boy with the mighty heart see he's our pride cus he fought to live
Another summer almost past for our boy with the mighty heart god knows he's a fighter and he survives and sentences still can't be heard yet he speaks a thousand words right through his eyes through his eyes
burauecratic people you look through eyes trained not to see the challenges we've spoken of yet your ears just will not hear
come inside and learn about the boy with the mighty heart see he's our pride cus he fought to live
come inside and meet the boy the boy with the mighty heart see he's our pride cus he fought to live
see he's our pride cus he fought to live

Goodbye
words and music by Matt Young
Verse 1
It’s been forty four amazing years since we exchanged our wedding rings
We just knew we had that brilliant special thing
We were young in love, had the whole world in our hands
Never thought that one day God might make a stand
Verse 2
I was there the night you had that dizzy spell
You disguised with your goofy smile that you weren’t well
I guess I knew deep down inside this thing was here to stay
Though I could not face reality at all that day see
Chorus 1
I always told you I’ll love you till I die
I’m not ready to end this journey no I cannot say goodbye
Yes I’ll truly love you till the moment that I die
But I’m not ready and it’s not time to say goodbye
Verse 3
We stroll along the water’s edge and I see you hide your pain
But you won’t give up, you still love to feel the rain and
we chat about our babies long ago they flew the nest
Children of their own now yes seven of the best
Chorus 2
I always told you I’ll love you till I die
I’m not ready to end this love affair no I cannot say goodbye
As I ponder a world without you I slowly start to cry
Though it’s not fair I must prepare to say goodbye
goodbye, goodbye
Verse 4
As I lie with you in your final hour you’re just a shadow of yourself
I’d give my heart and soul to heal you to good health
You awake for one last moment and you gaze into my eyes
And you whisper something in my ear and it’s now I recognise see
Chorus 3
I’ve always told you I’ll love you till I die
This moment is now upon us, and it’s time to say goodbye
If I truly love you I must let your spirit fly
I hold your hand and gently say goodbye
Verse 5
Now I dream about you every night, and when I’m in my rocking chair
I’ve made a new life now but it’s hard without you there
See a man he needs his lady the one in whom he can confide
It won’t be long now darling till our worlds again collide
Chorus 4
See I always told you I’ll love you till I die
As I turn and stare from the letter box, and wave to you goodbye
I still truly love you but there’s no more tears to cry
I wander off as I say my last goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

From the Podium
Verse 1
Dear granddad, how did you make the Olympic team, how did you get there
Was it your childhood dream?
Child I had a dream that my time had come, I’d wake each day with the rising sun
and trained real hard, harder than anyone
Chorus 1
See my dream was a simple one, to wave to the crowd from the podium
To hold a gold medal to my heart with a tear in my eye, as I waved from the podium
(That’s how it was)
Verse 2
Oh Granddad how did you face the world alone, living in a suitcase in some strange city
Did you ever fear the unknown?
Well I had the dream and the dream was real to build a body and a mind of steel
I worked damned hard, harder than everyone
Chorus 2
Child the dream was a special one, to wave to the crowd from the podium
To hold a gold medal to my heart with a tear in my eye, as I waved from the podium
Bridge
Well you can’t run there’s no place to hide you have to cast your fears aside
Don’t you dare give in don’t ever Succumb cus that’s what it truly takes, to wave from the
podium
Instrumental break
Verse 3
Hey Granddad I had the dream and I’m doing just fine I followed your lead
And the feeling’s sublime, I think it might just be my time ( it’s your time)
If your childhood dream never leaves your sights
girl I can see you reaching dizzy heights
I’ve seen your strength and you can do anything yes
Chorus 3
Oh Granddad, see my dream’s been a magical one
To wave to you from the podium
To hold a gold medal to my heart with a tear in my eye, and wave to you from the podium
You will wave to me from the podium
yes I’ll wave to you from the podium

Imperfections- Lyrics
Billy’s got an oversized girth; been a problem since his birth
And Janie feels like a leopard with camouflaged spots peppered
Gangly Steve stands six foot two now he walks with an awkward stoop
Rikkie Lake has got that problem too they won’t let her in that clicky in group
Chorus
Some kids see through coke bottle glasses and
Some kids stutter words teased in their classes
Some kids they build to strut along the cat walk
And some kids seem to do that super cool talk
Bullies listen up, you’ve got Imperfections , Imperfections
A big long face has Jed succumbs to the name of Mr Ed
They call young Lenny a nerd; cus he looks up trees and studies birds
Lana’s the eccentric type hides away from all the hype
And if the playground needs a garden hose, the mob will point at Johnny’s nose
Chorus
Some kids see through coke bottle glasses and
Some kids stutter words teased in their classes
Some kids they build to strut along the cat walk
And some kids seem to do that super cool talk
Bullies listen up, you’ve got Imperfections, Imperfections
Do you ever take a moment to stop and consider how the other half feel?
Have you ever tried to understand how long it takes for their wounds to heal?
Billy’s got an oversized girth; been his problem since his birth
And Janie feels like a leopard with camouflaged spots all peppered
Chorus
Some kids see through coke bottle glasses and
Some kids stutter words teased in their classes
Some kids just can’t strut along the cat walk
They’re beautiful inside if you care to take a look
Bullies listen up, Bullies listen up
we got Imperfections, Imperfections yeah
Imperfections we got Imperfections yeah
imperfections
Bullies listen up !!

PRECIOUS JEWEL
Imagine a rare stone that you can not wear, yet touches you often, our precious jewel
though you sometimes can’t see it, it never fails to guide you along a straight and happy path, our precious
Jewel You can feel its warmth where-ever you are and you know it has taught you lessons of
kindness what is fair in this crazy old world
This precious precious jewel, ( precious precious jewel)………has rare qualities
Imagine a rare stone that you can not wear, yet touches you often, our precious jewel
When you place it in your heart you'll receive un-conditional love and incredible care
our precious jewel It will bring out the best in you for you care for it and love it too but now it’s time to pass the jewel over, there are others who need it now
This precious precious jewel, (precious precious jewel)………has rare qualities
Now I sometimes see a dove gliding peacefully above, watching over me
Seemingly protecting me from harms way that’s my jewel, that’s my jewel
Now I smile because when I see it, I subconsciously sit up straight and behave my very best, like a
tiny kid in class, oooooooohhhhhhhhhh That’s my jewel, that’s my jewel,
This precious jewel still graces my world and that is for certain, my precious jewel. I only
look above and there she is, fussing about wings spread lighting up my path
There she is lighting up my path
There she is lighting up my path
There she is lighting up my path

White Rocks - Words and music by Matt Young
I’d been searching for a special place to preserve a tale or two
was a man in the street who shared the news of a wonderful guy he knew ( he said)
He’ll listen to your stories, and like a baby born brand new
He’ll nurture and nourish them, still I questioned was it true
he said you don’t need no map to get there but hey don’t worry cus you will find
this place they call Allegro there’s just one, one of its kind so if you
listen up and listen well and open up your mind if you
hear a sweet melody follow your heart to the place where the white rocks shine
The day I walked into your world, do you recall our little jam?
My crafted tunes are treasures now, do you know how proud I am?
I embraced your stories too my friend, the beautiful words you sing
Never sell ye short old warrior, of the pleasures that you bring
I didn’t need no map to get there, cus I believed that I would find
the place they call Allegro they made just one, one of its kind
I listened up and I listened well and I opened up my mind
I heard a sweet melody and followed my heart to the place where the white rocks shine
As much about the music it’s the teachers that you are
you inspire us to resemble you when our journey’s gone as far
so much we need to thank you for, our humble humble friends
Your wisdom will guide us till the end
I guess I knew the day would dawn the sanctuary of sound
The haven with my first stories the curtains must come down
Enjoy the peace my good friends, please take a little bow but if I
hit a junction in the road I will listen for your sound
I know I won’t need no map to get there, cus I believe that I will find
the place they call Allegro there’s still just one, one of its kind
I will listen up and listen well till I receive the sign
I’ll hear your sweet melody and follow my heart to the place where the white rocks shine
I’ll hear your sweet melody and follow my heart to the place where the white rocks shine-end

No ordinary day-words and music by Matt Young
Things are dragging down, few words left to say
Heart etched in a frown as the soul erodes away, Caught up in a game, I guess I took the blame, was the writing on the wall, long before the fall?
Dizzy in a world of spin, truth that’s best unspoken
Easier to grin, than to show when wounds are open
taken by surprise, no sign of compromise? Was the writing on the wall, long before the fall?
It was no ordinary day when they nonchalantly said “goodbye"
We thank you for your time” and it’s
No ordinary thing when good people your life can’t look you in the eye
no ordinary day I say
Time has healed the pain, feel it drift away forever, love and hope remain, I’ve strength when theyre together
Wiped away the tears, conquering my fears, and now I stand up tall, and I’ll show them who I am?
It was no ordinary day when they nonchalantly said “goodbye"
We thank you for your time” and it’s
No ordinary thing when good people in your life can’t look you in the eye
no ordinary day
no ordinary day when they nonchalantly said “goodbye We thank you for your time, no ordinary day when they nonchalantly said “goodbye” ohh goodbye
It was no ordinary day but I’ll be quite ok it was no ordinary day but I’ll be quite ok
It was no ordinary day but I’ll be quite ok

Love is Easy
03:54
|

Love is easy when you promise from the start
To make your sweet-heart number one from the bottom of your heart
love is easy when you give yourself a chance to
Surrender every secret treat each step like the last dance
Then love is easy, love is beautiful, love will carry you away, though
It will test you, love will stretch you, have you shedding tears in pain, but
Love is a journey, so book your tickets build a carriage just for two,
Take that winding road, hand in hand together then you’ll see that
Love is easy
Love is easy when you do the simple things
Tell her you love her more than life that she makes your whole heart sing
But there’ll be trying times some road bumps you must face
Cocoon yourselves in the darkest hour form a lovers embrace
Then love will save you, it will protect you, love will carry you away, yes
It will test you, love will stretch you, have you crying on some days, but
Love is a journey, book your tickets, mount that carriage just for two,
Take that winding road, arm in arm together then you’ll see that
Love is easy
Don’t waste another moment waiting for the starter’s gun
You can trust that inner voice inside that tells you when to run
Just give yourself an even chance then you will know for sure that love is Easy
Love is easy when you promise from the start
To make your sweet-heart number one from the bottom of your heart
Then love is easy, love’s a miracle, love will carry you away,
It will test you, it will stretch you, have you shedding tears in pain, but
Love is a journey, book those tickets, ride that carriage just for two,
Take that winding road, hand in hand together then you’ll know that
Love is easy that love is easy yes love is easy
