9. How Many Times

1. Belonging:

Drop into the water
And the waters carry me
Underneath the mountain
To the place where the old ones dream

There's a pool in the center
Painted cliffs that rise up high
Shades of lapis and turquoise
With a gaze like an emerald eye

And the waters draw me down down down
The waters draw me down

Grief like a river
Teaching me how to feel
In a world on fire
How are we going to heal

I call you in the currents here
I hold you when you touch the ground
I listen in the space between
In this longing belonging is found

And the waters draw me down down down
The waters draw me down

Grief like a river
Teaching me how to feel
In a world on fire
How are we going to heal

I call you in the currents here
I hold you when you touch the ground
I listen in the space between
In this longing belonging is found

And the waters draw me down down down
The waters draw me down
The waters draw me down down down
The waters draw me down

2. Fears Falling Away:

You lost your way
And now it all comes back to you
Had to face the end
Of all you thought you knew
For you to see the path
Right in front of you
The choice is clear
You're gonna make it all the way through

Fears falling away
Fears falling away

When you hear the news
And it breaks your heart in two
No need to pretend
That it's all ok with you
Grief carves the space
For love to carry you
Grief carves the space
For love to carry you

Fears falling away
Fears falling away

When you hear the news
And it breaks your heart in two
No need to pretend
That it's all ok with you
Grief carves the space
For love to carry you
Grief carves the space
For love to carry you

Fears falling away
Fears falling away


3. Follow the Road:

Follow the road
Home
Follow the road
Home
Follow the road
Follow the road
Follow the road

Uncover the mind
Til the body it glows
The compass aligns
With the truth in our bones
We follow the road
Follow the road
Home
Follow the road
Home

One step at a time
Often that's all that we know
Listening willing we go
We follow the road
Follow the road
Follow the road
Home
Follow the road
Follow the road
Home


4. Courage:

Can we stand up tall
Even if we doubt we'll rise again
From another fall
We all need our courage now
We all need our courage now

And when we feel our hearts
Are going to fall apart
We all need our courage now
We all need our courage now

Takes courage courage courage
Like a lion
Strength of the heart
Strength of the spirit
To rely on

Courage courage courage
Like a lion
Strength of the heart
Strength of the spirit
To rely on

Courage to love
Courage to forgive
Courage to open
And to live in trust
We must we must
Trust the way

Courage to be here
Courage to see
That you are
Already free
Courage to lay your burdens down

Courage to rise up
Courage to wise up
Courage to open
Your heart and your eyes up
To the truth
To the light that you are

Courage to be you
Courage to be new
Courage to do
What you came here to do
Courage to be true

Takes courage courage courage
Like a lion
Strength of the heart
Strength of the spirit
To rely on

Courage courage courage
Like a lion
Strength of the heart
Strength of the spirit
To rely on

We've all been here before
Been fooled by our victim story
Help us friends keep our vision clear
We'll find our strength
Even in our deepest fear
No matter what we think we'll lose
We remember that it's love we choose
We remember that it's love we choose
We remember that it's love we choose

Can we stand up tall
Even if we doubt we'll rise again
From another fall
We all need our courage now
We all need our courage now

And when we feel our hearts
Are going to fall apart
We all need our courage now
We all need our courage now
We all need our courage now
We all need our courage now

5. Lovers Song:

On days when the way
Seems way too long
Days when I wonder
If a heavy heart
Means it's all gone wrong
Days when I get afraid
A world of trust
May have come undone
The moon her face she turns
And we keep on keeping on

This too belongs
This too is the lovers song
This too belongs
This too is the lovers song

Let it
Let it all down
Come softer
Come softer to
That harder ground
The moon her face she turns
And we keep on keeping on
The shore she calls to me
And the waves keep rolling on

This too belongs
This too is the lovers song
This too belongs
This too is the lovers song
This too belongs
This too is the lovers song
This too belongs
This too is the lovers song

6. Feel it all the way:

Come closer in to the broken heart
It is love still
Come closer in to the burning fire
It is love still
Belonging means being right where we are
As we're falling
Life lifts us up and breaks us apart
It is love still

Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Stay with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you
Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Be with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you

Come closer in to the broken heart
It is love still
Come closer in to the burning fire
It is love still
Belonging means being right where we are
As we're falling
Life lifts us up and breaks us apart
It is love still

Drop deep darker down the well
We're not just here to fly
Include all the ones you shut outside
The ones in denial and the ones who hide

Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Stay with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you
Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Be with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you

Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Stay with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you
Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Be with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you

Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Stay with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you
Feel it all the way
Let the moment have you
Be with yourself don't turn away
Let the moment have you

7. Sing the Circle Open Wider:

When did the violence start
Who knows who knows
But I know I've been a part
The line between good and evil
Runs through every heart
Recognize where harm it lies
And listen for the path

Steady as a mountain
Willing as the water
Forged inside the fire
Sing the circle open wider
Sing the circle open wider

Ancestor's swinging swords
Carved a river of wounds
And all the love they ever shared
Lives now as me and you
How many generations
Cut from the ground
Trauma tangled tight amidst the strength
And handed down

Now we meet the tending
Of the grieving mending shrine
Slow ourselves and feel until
What's bloody turns to wine
Digging vessels deeper
Til the golden thread is found
Weave this world a tapestry
With belonging as our sound

Steady as a mountain
Willing as the water
Forged inside the fire
Sing the circle open wider
Sing the circle open wider
Sing the circle open wider
Sing the circle open wider

Steady as a mountain
Willing as the water
Forged inside the fire
Sing the circle open wider
Sing the circle open wider
Sing the circle open wider
Sing the circle open wider

8. Sea of Stars:

Just as we are
With all our love
Bathed in the night
A sea of stars
The canyon holds us
In her arms

The waters slip on by
Velvet wings
Caress the sky
Gratitude and grieving
Are intertwined
Weeping for it all
In these times

What have we done
Can we all
Learn how to get along
What could this world become
If we all could
Learn how to get along

I lay my burden down
And notice what's already held
By the ground
Patience is the silence
Inside the sound
Possibility
Is all around

Just as we are
With all our love
Bathed in the night
A sea of stars
The canyon holds us
In her arms
The canyon holds us
In her arms

9. How Many Times:

How many times I thought I was right
Believed my case so cut and dry
Cut with heart and cut with mind
Built a wall and hid behind

How many times have I realized
What goes around comes around
The mirror is bright
What I do to you I do to me
What I do to me I do to you
What I do to you I do to we
None outside in this air we breathe

How many times I thought I was right
felt so very justified
to place another in my line of fire
proud of eagle eyes but in fact I was blind

How many times have I realized
What goes around comes around
The mirror is bright
What I do to you I do to me
What I do to me I do to you
What I do to you I do to we
None outside in this air we breathe

Inside there is no other
Inside we are each other
In time we all discover
There is no other there is no other
Inside there is no other
Inside we are each other
In time we all discover
There is no other there is no other
Inside there is no other
Inside we are each other
In time we all discover
There is no other there is no other

I know boundaries are a real thing
I've got claws and I've got fangs
I will protect my family
Sometimes a fierce no is what I need

And how many times have I realized
What goes around comes around
The mirror is bright
What I do to you I do to me
What I do to me I do to you
What I do to you I do to we
None outside in this air we breathe
What I do to you I do to me
What I do to me I do to you
What I do to you I do to we
None outside in this air we breathe
What I do to you I do to me
What I do to me I do to you
What I do to you I do to we
None outside in this air we breathe
