Walk WithYou (lyrics)

Hey Girl, we always meet up after work
Why’d you go straight to your car
I saw the Kleenex in your hand
Couldn’t let you get too far

You crack a little smile at me
But your eyes say something different 
I can tell you’ve been hurt again
And you don’t have to hide it

Hey it’s okay if you need to talk
Let’s go take a walk

I’ll walk with you when you're up when your down
No matter what, I’ll be around
I am the friend you can tell anything
Or don’t say a word, whatever you need
I’m not going anywhere except
On a walk with you


Let’s figure this problem  out
Together side by side
One day you’ll get through this
Then I may need your advice

You’ll be the one to hold me up
Give me strength to find my way
You show up at my house unannounced
It’s my turn to hear you say

Hey it’s okay if you need to talk
Let’s go take a walk

I’ll walk with you when you're up when your down
No matter what, I’ll be around
I am the friend you can tell anything
Or don’t say a word, whatever you need
I’m not going anywhere except
On a walk with you

Step by step
We’ll get through
Set the pace
Look what we can do

I’ll walk with you when you're up when your down
No matter what, I’ll be around
I am the friend you can tell anything
Or don’t say a word, whatever you need
I’m not going anywhere except
On a walk with you

I’m not going anywhere except
On a walk with you

WALK WITH YOU

Half Moon (lyrics)
By Amy Vanator; 8/29/22; amyvanator@hotmail.com

I’m out here tonight looking for some help My light is dim and I’m not quite myself
I need to know if this is just a phase
The answer unfolds when I lift up my face

Chorus:
Half Moon, I don’t have to be whole When I look at you, I’m not so alone Half Moon, maybe God put you in the sky To remind us it’s alright
To shine whatever light we have
I can do it if you can, Half Moon

I don’t want to be stuck on the dark side 
Where it’s easy to get lost and hide
If I just show up like you did for me
I can be the help someone else might need

Chorus
Half Moon, I don’t have to be whole When I look at you, I’m not so alone Half Moon, maybe God put you in the sky To remind us it’s alright
To shine whatever light we have
I can do it if you can, Half Moon

Bridge:
There will be times when my strength won’t wane anymore And times I remember who my light shines for
Then times when the weight of the world pulls me down But at least I know, you’ll come back around

Last Chorus:
Half Moon, I don’t have to be whole When I look at you, I’m not so alone Half Moon, maybe God put you in the sky To remind us it’s alright
To shine whatever light we have
I can do it if you can
I can do it if you can, Half Moon

Half Moon

Blessings of Rain (lyrics) 

By Amy Vanator; 12/22/20; amyvanator@hotmail.com

These are dry days
I have dry bones
Aching for God to satisfy my groans

I thirst for you
Living Water
You are all I need, Life-giver

Chorus:
So I will sing Hallelu, with my hands raised to You 
My offering will rise as water vapors in the sky
According to Your ways
You gather up the clouds of praise
And make it rain, blessings of rain


When I don’t measure up
When I’m feeling low
Then surrender it all, You take away my sorrow

When I sing out loud
My heart begins to change
No matter what, You deserve my praise

Chorus:
So I will sing Hallelu, with my hands raised to You 
My offering will rise as water vapors in the sky
According to Your ways
You gather up the clouds of praise
And make it rain, blessings of rain

Post: 
You make it rain
You make it rain
blessings of rain 
Blessings of rain 2x

Bridge:
You keep your promises
You keep your promises
So I can dance in the rain because of it
You keep your promises

Chorus:
So I will sing Hallelu, with my hands raised to You 
My offering will rise as water vapors in the sky
According to Your ways
You gather up the clouds of praise
And make it rain, blessings of rain

Post:
You make it rain
You make it rain
blessings of rain 
Blessings of rain 2x

Outro: You make it rain

That Kind Of Dad (lyrics)
By: Amy Vanator; DOC: 5/10/22
amyvanator@hotmail.com


You would toss me in the air and twirl me around
We’d dance in the living room with the music turned up loud
And you’d feed me Lucky Charms for dinner when Mom was gone
If I got scared at night, you’d sing me a song

You’re that kind of dad
You’re that kind of guy
A girl can look up to the rest of her life
Nobody hugs any better than you
Or can cheer me up quite like you do
You’ll always be
That kind of dad to me

At all my high school games, I felt you in my corner
You scared away those boys that weren’t right for your daughter
And who knows how many times you waited while I fixed my hair
Each time I left the house, you said a prayer

You’re that kind of dad
You’re that kind of guy
A girl can look up to the rest of her life
When I need advice, I run to you
If my car breaks down, you’re there for that too
You’ll always be
That kind of dad to me

BR:
I hope you know how much these memories have meant
There’s so many more we’ve shared and haven’t made yet
Although I’m grown now and too big to twirl
I’ll always be my daddy’s girl 

You’re that kind of dad
You’re that kind of guy
A girl can look up to the rest of her life
You’re happy for me when I have good news 
Nobody holds a candle to you
You’ll always be
That kind of dad to me

You’ll always be, just what I need….that kind of dad to me

THAT KIND OF DAD

Your More (lyrics)
By Amy Vanator, 1/12/2020; amyvanator@hotmail.com

We live in a world that compares everything
Like who has more time, more friends, more things
She has more beauty and is smarter than most
He has more talent and guts to boast

But when you choose to be grateful for what you have
 “It changes your heart,” said my dear granddad
I think that’s the way it’s supposed to be
We all have more to share freely...

Chorus:
Whatcha gonna do with the more that you got
Keep a little, split a little, give a lot
Today’s one way, tomorrow maybe not
So, whatcha gonna do with your more


There’s always someone who has more than you
And you probably have more than someone else too
More joy to spread, more love to give
More education to teach our kids
Just look around and you’ll see more needs
More sick to care for, more mouths to feed
More being there for those feeling blue
Do what you can with the more in you

Chorus:
Whatcha gonna do with the more that you got
Keep a little, split a little, give a lot
Today’s one way, tomorrow maybe not
So, whatcha gonna do with your more

Bridge: More...more
Whatcha gonna do with your more 
More...more
Whatcha gonna do with your more...more 

Chorus:
Whatcha gonna do with the more that you got
Keep a little, split a little, give a lot
Today’s one way, tomorrow maybe not
So, whatcha gonna do with your more x2

Whatcha gonna do with your more

Your More

Lyrics: 

How Long, Lord
By Amy Vanator; 9/19/19; amyvanator@hotmail.com

I’m not going to wrap this up with a pretty bow
Gonna sing to you all my pain and sorrow
Gonna speak my mind and tell you why life has been unkind
You’re big enough to handle it, I know

Chorus:
You’re the God, who cries along with me
You’re the God, who sees my pain and hears my plea
You’re the God, who holds my hand through the valley
But how long, Lord? How long will it be
How long, Lord? How long will it be

Why do those you love still suffer hardship
How do I explain away fears to my kids
Don’t wanna hear more news of lives lost to cancer, storms, or disputes
Don’t you think the world has had enough of this
Chorus:
You’re the God, who cries along with me
You’re the God, who sees my pain and hears my plea
You’re the God, who holds my hand through the valley
But how long, Lord? How long will it be
How long, Lord? How long will it be

Bridge:
While we wait for you to right all wrongs
With open hands we sing to you our sorrow-filled song
Lord Jesus, may your kingdom come
How long, How long
Chorus:
You’re the God, who cries along with me
You’re the God, who sees my pain and hears my plea
You’re the God, who holds my hand through the valley
But how long, Lord? How long will it be
How long, Lord? How long will it be

Outro: 
How long, Lord? How long will it be

How Long Lord

VERSE 1
Another hand to hold, another mouth to feed
Everywhere we look, you can see a need
It doesn’t take too much, to see we’re falling out of touch
When we open up our eyes, we can realize
How little it could take to change a life
Imagine how the world could be, we could change everything
CHORUS
We don’t need a superhero,
There is nothing we can’t do, no
When we come together we are
Extraordinary, ordinary people
We don’t need a superhero,
There is nothing we can’t do, no
When we come together we are
Extraordinary, ordinary people

VERSE 2
We can bring a smile to a stranger’s face
We can wipe a tear, share a warm embrace
Wait and watch what we will do, when we let our love shine through

CHORUS
We don’t need a superhero,
There is nothing we can’t do, no
When we come together we are
Extraordinary, ordinary people
We don’t need a superhero,
There is nothing we can’t do, no
When we come together we are
Extraordinary, ordinary people

BR:
Extraordinary Ordinary people,
We are extraordinary ordinary people, people

CHORUS
We don’t need a superhero,
There is nothing we can’t do, no
When we come together we are
Extraordinary, ordinary people
We don’t need a superhero,
There is nothing we can’t do, no
When we come together we are
Extraordinary, ordinary people

Wrinkles and Scars
By Amy Vanator; amyvanator@hotmail.com; DOC: 2/9/23

Growing up I loved this old willow tree
A place I could cry when I scraped my knees
Under the cover of it’s branches
I prayed I’d never stop taking chances 
And learn from my mistakes, in love and heartaches 

It’s taken me awhile to get it
To forgive and when wrong to admit it
But wounds can heal and leave a sign
That you’re stronger on the inside
Some things are better with age, and I can honestly say

I wouldn’t trade my wrinkles and scars
That prove I’ve been livin’ and I made it this far
And the work I’ve been doing
Is working on my heart
There’s a better version of me
Beneath wrinkles and scars

Time sure flies and when I don’t remember 
Who I’m tryin to become, I look in the mirror
And see the laughter on my face
Like the marks you can’t erase 
If I’m gonna get these lines, I want the smiling kind 
CH:
I wouldn’t trade my wrinkles and scars
That prove I’ve been livin’ and I made it this far
And the work I’ve been doing
Is working on my heart
There’s a better version of me
Beneath wrinkles and scars

BR: 
Sometimes I catch a glimpse of the child in me
Sitting under that old willow tree
And I tell myself I’m doing my best
To live a life without regrets
Chorus
Outro: The things that really matter are deeper than wrinkles and scars

Lyrics: 
Two Tables Down
By Amy Vanator; DOC 11/4/24; amyvanator@hotmail.com




[verse]
Two tables down they just stare at their plates
They look tired of each other but wear their rings anyway 
If we keep going through the motions, we’ll end up like them
Sitting together, but not even friends

[CHORUS]
And we don’t have to be like we were at first
Talking into the middle of the night
But I still wanna be who, you always run to
And me without you just ain’t right
We didn’t get dressed up and head downtown 
To become another Two-tables-down

[verse]
Suddenly you reach across the table to me
Half way down the middle that’s where our hands meet
We both know that we’re gonna be okay
When you smile at me I know why I stay

[CHORUS]
We don’t have to be like we were at first
Talking into the middle of the night
But I still wanna be who, you always run to
And me without you just ain’t right
There’s more of us yet to find out
 To become another Two-Tables-Down

[Bridge]
We can try to understand
Right now we can start again

[CHORUS]
And I don’t even mean like we were at first
Talking into the middle of the night
But I still wanna be who, you always run to
And me without you just ain’t right
We didn’t come this far to just stick it out
To become another Two-Tables-Down
By
[Outro]
Let’s never become just another  Two-Tables-Down
