Marmee's Song

Ever since you went away
The house has kind of seemed to change
It's too empty and quiet when you're gone
'Cause you're the one that I go to
I always confide in you
Didn't know what to do, so I wrote you this song
Marmee
Come home to me
I worry every time you leave
I count the days till you return safely
Come home to me
It's not that I don't have anyone
To talk to here, andI've begun
To appreciate everything we have
The house is full of songs and books
and plays and laughs and loving looks
But we miss you, so I sing on your behlf
Marmee
Come home to me
I worry every time you leave
I count the days till you return safely
Come home to me
You are second to none
The glue we adhere to
There isn't anyone
As lovely as you, so
Marmee
Come home to me
I worry every time you leave
I count the days till you return safely
Come home to me
Marmee
Come home to me
I worry every time you leave
I count the days till you return safely
Come home to me

I like being organized, and when things are clean
Tidying the house is an everyday activity
Cooking is a hobby, which might be weird in your eyes
But you wanted the truth, so I'll oblige
I smile when my sister Jo asks about my day
When Amy brings me tea to make my cough go away
The feeling of that first stitch when Meg and I crotchet
These are the things I live for
Laurie, it's me
Here's my heart on the table
I'm hoping you'll see how much I am able
To love and to live,
to take what I've given
and make it something new
Starting with this song for you
I love the smell of pancakes fresh upon the stove
Marathoning Doctor Who and all my favorite TV shows
Treating little animals with patience and care
and the moment Ron remembers that house elves are there
I adventure with the characters in my beloved books
Fight the Capitol with Katniss or joust with Captain Hook
You wanted to know me, so let's have a look
at the things that I hold most dear
Laurie, it's me
Here's my heart on the table
I'm hoping you'll see how much I am able
To love and to live,
to take what I've given
and make it something new
Starting with this song for you
Laurie, it's me
Here's my heart on the table
I'm hoping you'll see how much I am able
To love and to live,
to take what I've given
and make it something new
Starting with this song for you

Finding Strength

Sometimes I feel like i can't move
As if I'm paralyzed
Even though I've got something to prove
I can't help but want to hide
In this battle I'm on the front line
The only one marching to war
A war between the fear in my mind
And the fear that lied outside the door
But I will keep moving
And I will go on
Soon I'll be believing
that I can be strong
If I were to step back and really think
What am I gaining from this
At the back of my brain, this constant ache
I'm not strong enough to resist
I can't remember when it got this bad
When I became so overcome
By the lies that my subconscious fed
To my restless heart yearning to roam
But I will keep moving
And I will go on
Soon I'll be believing
that I can be strong
And I know that I am small
And I know that i'll probably fall, but
I know I can't keep living life like this
Even if I shoot and miss
So I will keep moving
And I will go on
Now I am believing
That I am strong

Spinning

Can I please say something, I'm doing really well
I think it just might last, though only time will tell
Who knew the world was full of magical things
Everyone they told me I should go out and live
But I never had the strength to go through with it
Now I feel like I'm bursting at the seams
Ohhhh
Oh
Now that I've let go, I feel like I'm
Spinning, something new's
Beginning, and filling up my heart
Oh, who would think I'd
Be here, in this place where
My fears can't tear me
Apart.... anymore
Funny how I've never seen this before
The feeling that I've got when I marched through the door
Opened my eyes to the person I could be
Someone who takes changes, Like non I've ever known
A girl who's not afraid to do things alone
My courage was locked up but now I have the key
Ohhhh
Oh
Now that I've let go, I feel like I'm
Spinning, something new's
Beginning, and filling up my heart
Oh, who would think I'd
Be here, in this place where
My fears can't tear me
Apart.... anymore
Anymore, anymore

Together

Hey Everybody look at where we are
It's strange to think that we've all come so far
I can't believe that a short time ago
Nobody knew how our family would grow
I'd like to stay right here with all of you
No power on this earth could make me move
I've always found contentment in the here and now
But with all of you, it's better somehow
The last thing I'll do is question the fact
While my life has turned a corner and is never looking back
Cause here is where I'm happy, here s where I thrive
Near the ones I love, glad to be alive
I think I've found my happy place
Just check out the smile glued on my face
Can't wait to look back in twenty years
Remembering the fun, the laughter and cheers
I'd like to stay right here with all of you
No power on this earth could make me move
I've always found contentment in the here and now
But with all of you, it's better somehow
The last thing I'll do is question the fact
While my life has turned a corner and is never looking back
Cause here is where I'm happy, here s where I thrive
Near the ones I love, glad to be alive
I'd like to stay right here with all of you
No power on this earth could make me move.
