Anybody Up There At All? I Got My Suitcase Packed, Clothes In It I Got It Hidden By The Backdoor Wall I Won't Tell Anybody Where I'm Going 'Cause I've Got Work In The Morning And They'll Tell Me Not To Leave Besides, They Probably Wouldn't Even Believe I'll Put This Letter On My Window So You'll See It Where You Are And If You Come Down Here To Read It Please Sign It With A Star And Then I'll Know When To Gеt Ready You Can Park Beside Thе Chimney When You're Here I'll Come Back With A Heart That's Full And A Mind That's Clear Chorus 'Cause I Think It Would Be Good For Me To Simply See The Earth From Outer Space See I Forget That There's A Galaxy And Stars Around This Place Oh We're So Tiny We're So Small We Really Know Nothing At All And We Don't Realise It Too Is There Anybody, Anybody, Anybody On The Moon? Verse 2 Is There Anybody On The Moon That I Can Visit? I'm Here Looking Out For You I Packed My Lunch Last Night, Last Minute Packed Just Enough For Two And I'll Bring Bags Of Air For When I'm There A Paper And A Pen To Document My Journey So I'll Remember When I Went To The Moon For My Visit I'll Have A Story To Recall I'll Write A Book About It A Poem About It Song, I'll Write It All And Then I'll Share It With My Daughter And She'll Share It With Her Son And He'll Tell His Kids And They'll Tell Their Kids Too About When I Was Young Chorus And How It Was So Good For Me To Simply See The Earth From Outer Space See I Forget That There's A Galaxy And Stars Around This Place Oh We're All Living Life So Scared All Trying To Find The Balance All Living Unaware It's So Funny How We Haven't Realised It Too Is There Anybody, Anybody, Anybody On The Moon? Verse 3 I'll Look Down At The World Take In All The Magic Blue And Green Of Earth Beautiful And Tragic We Don't Have A Clue I Think I'll Realise It Soon When I Look Down At The World And Imagine All The People Walking On The Streets So Different Yet So Equal What A View I Hope We Realise It Soon Outro Is There Anybody, Anybody, Anybody On The Moon? On The Moon? On The Moon? On The Moon? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track 08 - Strike 23 Writer/S: Aimee Carty -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Verse 1 It's Like You're Cutting A Tree On Strike Twenty-Three And Strike Twenty-Four's Gonna Knock It But How Could You Know When It Doesn't Show It's Harder To Stick With Something Than To Stop When You Can't See A Point Like Seeds Under Soil You're Watering Every Day They Don't Want To Grow But How Could You Know That They're Not Just A Few Drops Away From Showing All Of Its Love And All Of Its Light And All Of Its Colour And All Of Its Life Out Loud You're All Of Your Work You're All Of Your Hurt You're Just A Collection Of All That You've Learnt Till Now Chorus And You'll See When It Meets The Ground It Matters All The Strikes You Struck Before The One That Made The Tree Fall Down Verse 2 It's Like You're Rowing A Boat With Somewhere To Go But Feel Like You're Not Any Further With Every High And Every Low And Every Time That You're Turning A Corner You're Losing Your Faith With Every Wave But Tell Me Who Is To Say You're Not One Single Low Or Single Row Or Single Turn Away From Seeing The Shore To Steadier Ground You'll Open The Door Be Shouting It Out So Proud Just Carry Your Heart Don't Carry Your Guilt Just Be As You Are Just Look What You've Built Till Now Chorus And You'll See When It Meets The Ground It Matters All The Strikes You Struck Before The One That Made The Tree Fall Down Bridge Fall Down Fall Down Fall Down Fall Down Verse 3 (Fall Down) Just Walk Along (Fall Down) Enjoy The Journey (Fall Down) You're Doing Well (Fall Down) What's The Hurry? (Fall Down) Know Where You're Going Know Where You've Been Love What You Do Then Do It Over And Over Again (Fall Down) And As You Walk (Fall Down) Take In The Breeze (Fall Down) Take In The View (Fall Down) Take It From Me It Matters All The Time It Took For You To Build Your Town It Matters All The Strikes You Struck Before The Tree Falls Down -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track 09 - Never Met At All Writer/S: Aimee Carty -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No Capo Verse 1 Isn't It Funny, How Everything Unravelled As It Has? 'Cause Now I'm Sittin' Here And Looking Back At When The Time Was Slowly Passin' But Now Everybody's Laughin' Ain't It Funny How That Happened Smooth As Honey Not Sure If I Believe In Stars Aligning But There's Something Pretty Weird About The Timing If I Only Knew That I'd Be Led To You Pre-Chorus And I've Been Told I Think Too Much About This Stuff But I Can't Help But Wonder, Was It Fate Or Was It Luck? Chorus 'Cause What If? What If That Morning You Slept In? What If Your Taxi Didn't Show? Or What If Halfway Through The Trip You Didn't Know Which Way To Go If I Decided To Stay Back And Brush The Floor Or What If I Just Started Driving But Forgot To Lock The Door If I Decided Not To Go 'Cause I Just Wasn't Feeling Well Or I'd To Pull In Off The Road I Couldn't Pass, A Tree Had Fell I'd Probably Still Be All Alone With Nobody To Call If Something Somewhere Happened And We Never Met At All Verse 2 Isn't It Funny, How Everything Unravelled As It Did? I Was Lonely, I Was Only Just A Kid And Life Was So Uncertain Let Me Down And Left Me Hurtin' But You Lifted Off The Burden Made It Sunny All The Rain Clouds, All Of My Doubts Ran Away I Used To Long For Every Moment But Today But I Made It Through Cause I Met You Pre-Chorus And It's Probably True I Think Too Much About This Stuff But I Can't Help But Wonder, Was It Fate Or Was It Luck? Chorus 'Cause What If? What If That Morning You Slept In? What If Your Taxi Didn't Show? Or What If Halfway Through The Trip You Didn't Know Which Way To Go If I Decided To Stay Back And Brush The Floor Or What If I Just Started Driving But Forgot To Lock The Door? If I Decided Not To Go 'Cause I Just Wasn't Feeling Well Or I'd To Pull In Off The Road I Couldn't Pass, A Tree Had Fell I'd Probably Still Be All Alone With Nobody To Call If Something Somewhere Happened And We Never Met At All Outro If We Never Met At All What If We Never Met At All I'd Still Be Lonely Feelin' Small And I'd Have Nobody To Call (If We Never Met At All) If Something Somewhere Happened And We Never Met At All -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track 10 - All In A Lifetime Writer/S: Aimee Carty -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Verse 1 I Tend To Think Too Much About The Things I Can't Control Lost In Today And I Forget What’s Coming After It's So Important To Remember Everything In Life Will Pass This Day, This Week, This Year It's Just A Chapter Verse 2 It's Simply Building Blocks Built Of Sand On The Rocks From The Grains We Collect On The Shore Some Sit Back And Adore What They’ve Got Some Sit Back And Long For More Chorus And I Am Guilty I Forget That I Have Plenty Until Something Has Been Taken From My Hand But I've Decided While I'm Young While I'm Still 20 I’ll Just Sit Back And Enjoy It While I Can Post-Chorus It All Comes And Goes It All Ebbs And Flows It’s All In A Lifetime Verse 3 I Tend To Say Too Little 'Bout The Things I Want To Voice I Write My Words And Thoughts In Poems And Songs Instead But Then I Play The Victim Acting Like I Have No Choice As If The World Can See The Words Inside My Head Verse 4 It's Simply Paving Stones On A Path That We Go That We Walk, Just To See What We Find Some Are Proud Of The Life That They’ve Lived But Most People Don’t Even Look Behind Chorus And I Am Guilty I Forget To Look Around Me And I Often Fail To See How Far I’ve Come But I've Decided While I'm Young While I'm Still 20 I’ll Work Hard But I’ll Just Also Live For Fun Post-Chorus It All Comes And Goes It All Ebbs And Flows It’s All In A Lifetime Bridge It's All Just Simply Building Blocks, Build Them Up Knock Them Down To The Ground And Just Watch As They Fall It's Funny We Don't See The Tower We Had 'Til It's Gone, Then We're Sad We Have Nothing At All It's Funny How We Always Want To Travel Further Travel Faster Travel Harder Travel Better Travel Far But Often Times We Travel Where We Think We Want To Then We Look Back And We Long For Where We Were Not Where We Are Chorus And I Am Guilty I Forget To See The Beauty All Around Me It’s Exactly Where I Stand Deep Down I Know That It’ll All Just Piece Together If I’m Kind And If I’m True To Who I Am Post-Chorus It All Comes And Goes It All Ebbs And Flows It’s All In A Lifetime It All Comes And Goes It All Ebbs And Flows It’s All In A Lifetime -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track 11 - Child Again Writer/S: Aimee Carty -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Verse 1 "Oh, To Be A Child Again," They Said To Have A Brand New Heart And Brand New Head To Find The Smallest Of All Things Exciting To Find The Biggest Of All Things Inviting "Oh, To Be A Child Again," They Said At First, I Thought It Too But Now I'm Thinking And I Don't Know If I Do 'Cause I'm Just Thinking That Maybe We Don't Miss Being Younger Maybe We Just Miss The Wonder We Miss The Point Of View Chorus But We Can Have It Too If We Really Try All You Have To Do Is Open Your Eyes The World Is Just The Same As It Has Always Been The Beauty Is Alive It's Eager To Be Seen So Don't Dismiss The Colours Don't Dismiss The Sounds Find Comfort In The Rain Find Magic In The Clouds As We Get Older We Fall Into A Spell To Blame It On The World And Not To Look Inside Ourselves Verse 2 "Oh To Be A Child Again," They Said Look At Them, They Have No Fears At All They'll Chase Their Dreams They'll Get Up If They Fall But I Think The Main Component It's Not Bravery I Think It's Just Living In The Moment They Don't Get Caught Up In The Future Or Caught Up In The Past Or Caught Up Thinking About The Things They Don't Already Have When You're A Child You Don't Wish Your Life Away Or Long For Other Times That Isn't Now, That's Not Today Chorus And We Can Too If We Really Try All You Have To Do Is Open Your Eyes The World Is Just The Same As It Has Always Been The Beauty Is Alive It's Eager To Be Seen So Don't Dismiss The Colours Don't Dismiss The Sounds Find Comfort In The Rain Find Magic In The Clouds As We Get Older We Fall Into A Spell To Blame It On The World And Not To Look Inside Ourselves Verse 3 Look Out Of Your Window Look Onto The Street Think Of Those You've Met And Think Of Those You've Yet To Meet The Magic Is Around Us There's Far More Than Enough But I Think That We Don't Notice It As Much When We Grow Up Just Take It In Maybe Then You'll Feel Like A Child Again Outro Oh, To Be A Child Again -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track 12 -
