Passage of Time (New Year's Eve)
Shook off the cold monotone and dreamed of something more / Recalled bright memories standing firm on fragile pages torn. / In my mind I hear songs that take me back to that place

Holiday Insomnia (with a nod to "The Night Before Christmas")
'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, / Not a creature was stirring, not even my spouse. / Sheba was sleeping quietly on her special little chair

Waiting to Bloom
At that very moment, somehow you know / You look at me just so and emotions overload / All this time I'm wondering where you've been

Law of Attraction
I dreamed it, I willed it, that's how it should be / That the law of attraction would bring you to me / But now that you're here I've got to confess

I have but three small images of you / (Besides the one buried deep in my mind) / Two of the photos you gave to me once

You won't be comfortable with what I'm about to say / How you won't acknowledge what you really need / It's not the fear of failure that keeps you away

Unlocked the door, back home at last / Insanity of the workweek had finally passed, / Kicked off the heels, slipped out of the dress

On the Line
No one's putting me on the spot / Except the one I'm standing in now / I can see from the edge of reality

Clutter in the Attic
Lately I just can’t seem to clear / The clutter from my attic / Can’t help but climb those well-worn steps

The One
Pulled up the warmth that blankets my dreams / Slipped into sleep to envelop my needs / I replay one moment again and again
