Long Ride Home (Patty Griffin Cover)

All I'm Asking

Little Lies (Fleetwood Mac Cover)

Wouldn't It by Amanda Schultz (2015)

Wouldn't it be nice if we weren't always walking on ice?
Wouldn't it be fun if you knew that you had even someone?
Wouldn't it be great if there were something to celebrate?
Wouldn't it be grand if you knew you could reach for my hand?

(Chorus)

Don't think that I think it'll settle down
Don't think that there's nothing we can do now
Cuz I'll never say never
and if we ever stay together
we'll come around

Wouldn't it be kind if you shared us the weight on your mind?
Wouldn't it be good if you knew and you felt like you could?

Don't think that I think it'll settle down
Don't think that there's nothing we can do now
Cuz I'll never say never
and if we ever stay together
we'll come around

(Bridge)
Wouldn't it be nice and wouldn't it be fun if you knew you had even someone?
Wouldn't it be great and wouldn't it be grand if you knew you could reach out for my hand?
Whoever told you you cant?

Don't think that I think it'll settle down
Don't think that there's nothing we can do now
Cuz I'll never say never
and if we ever stay together
we'll come around

Cuz I'll never say never

Wouldn't It

Water Under The Bridge (Adele Cover)

The Same

WRITTEN BY SHAUNA GOULD AND AMANDA SCHULTZ (2006)

the first song I ever wrote at 16 years old :)

FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND

We left those city lights in our dust
Nothing in that beat up car but the three of us
16, 18, 20 years old
we always did exactly what we were told, but not this time

Naming lakes, midnight walks and late night talks
Staying up all night, did we ever really fight?

Twisting, turning down that road to somewhere new
I'd only have the guts to do it with you

Leaving footprints in the sand
I can always fall into your steady hands
We know that life is hard so we do the best we can
by leaving footprints in the sand

Willow leaves, they fall on me
those shooting stars, man they're all I'll ever see
Learning about life on our own
don't worry mom, I still know my way back home

Running, laughing
Starting our lives brand new
I'd only have the guts to do it with you

Leaving footprints in the sand
I can always fall into your steady hands
We know that life is hard so we do the best we can
by 

Leaving footprints in the sand
Our new path through that untouched land
We know that life is hard so we do the best we can by
leaving footprints in the sand

We left our footprints in the sand

Footprints In The Sand

Detour by Amanda Schultz (2016)

VERSE 1
I hear they call you the Rainy City
from where I sit all I see are skies of blue
From the outside it looks just right
right for you
and me too

VERSE 2
Try to remember who you were before all the open doors
Because the time flew by like rain and I watched it flow away
From afar I deepened scars and hid behind a baggage line

CHORUS
We could go home or take another detour
take another trip around the sun or we could
take a walk through Blueridge
I'd tell you what I knew if I knew anything at all
The thing with wanderlust is that it always turns to dust

VERSE 3
I drove the parkway for the first time since I made up my mind
and it felt like no miles had passed at all but still I had to cry
Because there's one more painted front door I call home
I should have known

CHORUS
We could go home or take another detour
take another trip around the sun or we could
take a walk through Blueridge
I'd tell you what I knew if I knew anything at all
The thing with wanderlust is that it always turns to dust

BRIDGE
And I don't regret all the time I've spent
walking compass in hand
But you will find that I do mind
that wasted time is mine
all the time

CHORUS
We could go home or take another detour
take another trip around the sun or we could
take a walk through Blueridge
I'd tell you what I knew if I knew anything at all
The thing with wanderlust is that it always turns to dust

Just like us
We just need love.

Detour

Written by Amanda Schultz & Jared Suitor (2016)

We were horrified by the entirety of the Jian Ghomeshi trial and the deplorable failure of our Justice System in protecting those women and any others trying to come forward in the future.

VERSE
What if you weren't alone?
Maybe you'd have a story of your own
It's really your word against mine
they say that this happens every damn time

CHORUS
They only hope you
can't keep it straight for two
minutes 'cause they knew
they knew

VERSE 2
What if you'd let it go?
Wouldn't you think we'd all deserve to know?
It isn't too hard to see
which one of us they think should walk free

CHORUS
They only hope you
can't keep it straight for two
minutes 'cause they knew
yeah, they knew

BRIDGE
Why don't you tell me why
we'd ever come to find
a little piece of mind?
What do you know?

CHORUS
They only hope you
can't keep it straight for two
minutes 'cause they knew
yeah, they knew
yeah, they knew
yeah, they knew

They Knew

In my grown up life, I am a Television Producer living between Toronto and Vancouver for the past few years. Toronto is home right now - Vancouver is home, always. I've been writing songs since I was 16 and have recently started to dabble in recording them myself. 

Let me know if you have any thoughts on songs I should cover and I'm always welcome to receiving feedback on my originals.
