Let You Be
Bethany Fonda
My frame is small and my smile fake,
Heavy heart unspoken
Shattered glass sounds, and I’ve felt the shake,
Fragile glass, broken
Ooooo’s
Paint blotch splatters on an open page,
Paint me lost, a dull red
Words come slowly but the pain comes quick,
Always mouth what’s unsaid
Where are you now
Cause I’m hurting
Where is your life
Cause I’m dying
I’m dying inside
Hold me…..
You’re near now
All around me
You’re here now
Help me see
I believe
I believe but I’m weak
I believe
I’ll let go and let you be

Spinning
words and music by Bethany Fonda
Are we on this ship to enjoy the ride
Or to rescue lives from the current
Do we love like we’ve never been hurt inside
Or do we become loves deterrent
Laughing, crying, living, dying, working, playing, dreaming
Growing, learning, fighting, faking, trying, making, awaking
(Chorus)
All this time the world keeps spinning
Are you dying slowly or fully living
Do we give like we love
More than we love what we’ve been given
Have we lost our identity, our sense of reality
Reign down kingdom of heaven
Laughing, crying, living, dying, working, playing, dreaming
Growing, learning, fighting, faking, trying, making, awaking
All this time the world keeps spinning
Are you dying slowly or fully living
Are my hands tied tightly behind my back
Clenching an idea of a dream
Untie the ropes I'm tangled in
Oh desire, be where he leads
All this time the world keeps spinning
Are you dying slowly or fully living
Growing, learning, fighting, faking, trying, making, awaking

Island Song

Sunshine days
Warm air breeze
Ocean tide
Tall palm trees
I’d like to stay here for a while
Coffee strong
Mangos sweet
Music loud
A dancing beat
I’d like to stay here for a while
CHORUS
Isn’t it beautiful
Isn’t it lovely, lovely
This Island life
Dark and proud
Tall and lean
Smile wide
An outstretched sea
I’d like to stay here for a while
Children play
Water sounds
Village friends
All gather round
I’d like to stay here for a while
Chorus
ENDING
All I see is what could be
and dreams that will come true
When we just believe

V1
Time
There is a time
For me and you
We’ll cross that line
Grow
Watch it grow
This morning sun
A seed to sow
All this time I’ve closed the gate now it’s open just for you
Chorus
Times arranging
I’ll keep waiting for my love, my love
Life’s always changing
But my heart’s never fading for my love, my love
V2
Learn
Oh, how we learn
Every up and down
Every twist and turn
Sun
Sure as the sun is overhead
I’ll be waiting with the key
You’re the only one for me
