Back to Being Me
By J.K. Halvorson
Something broke the spell
I’m shaking off the shell
Life’s a carousel
With its ups and downs
I’m finally getting back to being me
A little bird came and taught me how to sing
Taken by surprise
I can’t believe my eyes
I hate to jeopardize
Such a thin disguise
I’m finally getting back to being me
A little bird came and taught me how to sing
There’s a road ahead
The sky is burning red
Remember when you said
I might’ve lost my head
I’m finally getting back to being me
A little bird came and taught me how to sing
I’m finally getting back to being me
A little bird came and taught me how to sing

More than a Little Bit
By J.K. Halvorson
Maybe we got
More than a little bit
There’s a whole lot
For us up ahead
A brown eyed boy
A blue eyed girl
And there’s nothing more
That needs to be said
I know you want to try and pretend
You think of me as only a friend
Just a second before you leave
I’ve got a trick or two up my sleeve
I’m gonna give it all that I can
More than just the typical man
Go run and tell your mama the news
Maybe we got
More than a little bit
There’s a whole lot
For us up ahead
A brown eyed boy
A blue eyed girl
And there’s nothing more
That needs to be said
It only took a walk in the woods
And all your shouldn’ts turned into shoulds
You turned around and gave me a grin
I made my mind up right there and then
The sign upon my hearts’ saying sold
Just wait until you see what unfolds
I felt it on our first rendezvous
Maybe we got
More than a little bit
There’s a whole lot
For us up ahead
A brown eyed boy
A blue eyed girl
And there’s nothing more
That needs to be said

The Garden
By
J.K. Halvorson
Let’s take a walk through the garden
Let’s take a stroll on the beach
You’ll have to please beg my pardon
But you make me fall like a leaf
I came to you with a question
How busy should life really be
A nice little quaint bed and breakfast
And that should be all that we need
You make me feel
Like it just might be real
This thing that they call love
It fell down
Into my lap from above
I could just burst through the ceiling
Every time that you wink
That blueberry pie smells appealing
And I’m in the mood for a treat
You make me feel
Like it just might be real
This thing that they call love
It fell down
Into my lap from above

Whistling Dixie
By J.K. Halvorson
If I ran away would you come along
We could head out to the hills
And build ourselves a brand new home
We can finally do what we will
Sitting on the banks of a river
Whistling dixie in June
The bright city lights aint got nothing on you
Soft is the touch of the women I found
She’s the queen bee of the hive
I spend everyday just flying around
To bring back some honey at night
Sitting on the banks of a river
Whistling dixie in June
The bright city lights aint got nothing on you
I’m still not afraid to look like a fool
I’m not afraid of plucking a string
A melody came out of the blue
My little darling started to sing
Sitting on the banks of a river
Whistling dixie in June
The bright city lights aint got nothing on you

For Better or Worse
By J.K. Halvorson
You can move on
There’s nothing to see here
Soon I’ll be gone
But not soon enough
Maybe you’re right
Life’s just a nightmare
Say what you like
Because I’m waking up
You can be so melodramatic
When comes to things
Like asking for help
Stay if you must
But I can’t be trusted
In keeping my hands
All to myself
We started out under a curse
A friend of a friend
For better or worse
So let’s take a walk
In through the outdoor
And see if we find
A bit of relief
I’ve got a heart
That you can borrow
So long as it comes
Back in one piece
We started out under a curse
A friend of a friend
For better or worse
When I said my mind was an open book
I never thought
That you’d take a look
You can move on
There’s nothing to see here
Soon I’ll be gone
But not soon enough

Seventeen Days
By J.K. Halvorson
I went walking and never looked back
I spent the night inside an old paper sack
I tripped and fell up into the sky
I’m feeling funny but I can’t say why
I think that it’s time to come home
Seventeen days on the road
I’m hungry I’m poor and I’m cold
I think that it’s time to come home
I’m still tossing and turning at night
I’m still trying to learn the left from the right
A conversation with the man in the clouds
Don’t ever let ‘em catch you thinking out loud
I think that it’s time to come home
Seventeen days on the road
I’m hungry I’m poor and I’m cold
I think that it’s time to come home
Who’s the one you said you can’t live without
There’ not a problem till you open your mouth
How many friends you gonna turn into foes
Put down the shovel and get out of the hole
I think that it’s time to come home
Seventeen days on the road
I’m hungry I’m poor and I’m cold
I think that it’s time to come home

A Girl that’s a Princess
By
J.K. Halvorson
She’s mixed up all of the time
There’s shadows playing tricks on the wall
She says life’s a roll of the dice
But she never let the dice leave her palm
It’s the oldest tale that’s ever been told
A girl that’s a princess and nobody knows
A no one believes her so she leaves her home
She’s been out on the road ever since
Hoping to find her a prince
Just to try and soften the pain
She left a little note by the door
It said that there’s no one to blame
But she was off to find something more
It’s the oldest tale that’s ever been told
A girl that’s a princess and nobody knows
A no one believes her so she leaves her home
She’s been out on the road ever since
Hoping to find her a prince
Bound and determined to change
She’ll take the gates of heaven by storm
She feels like she’s been in a maze
Ever since the day she was born
It’s the oldest tale that’s ever been told
A girl that’s a princess and nobody knows
A no one believes her so she leaves her home
She’s been out on the road ever since
Hoping to find her a prince

The Big Bad World
By
J.K. Halvorson
Don’t let the big bad world bring you down
It’ll bring you down
I woke up on the wrong side of town
The devil was out just walking around
A broken-hearted kid in the cold
The least you could do is throw me a bone
Don’t let the big bad world bring you down
It’ll bring you down
Don’t let the big bad world bring you down
It’ll bring you down
The liars and the thieves and the feds
If I was a king it’d be off with their heads
When I finally build up the nerve
I’m coming back for what I deserve
Don’t let the big bad world bring you down
It’ll bring you down
Don’t let the big bad world bring you down
It’ll bring you down

Now I’m Home
By
J.K. Halvorson
The sky could fall down and I’d feel right at home
What’s a sky anyways it’s nothing at all
If I wind up in space I’ll give you a call
I’m here outside the atmosphere and there’s nowhere I can fall
There’s nothing left to call my own
And I’m finally letting go of the stone
I’ve been carrying it around for so long
But now I’m home
Let the clouds open up and the rain come pouring down
It’s hotter than hell and I feel I’d rather drown
It’s a shame when you’re brain never gives you peace of mind
And the clock that’s on the wall seems to stall just in time
I’m walking down a road that’s unknown
And I’m finally letting go of the stone
I’ve been carrying it around for so long
But now I’m home
I’ve got pity for the man that’s on the throne
Now I’m home
