Take me through the seasons and watch me fall in love.
Let the autumn leaves make a path to let our journey begin.
Take me by the fire and start to open up.
You tell me no matter what there’s one place I’ll be safe…

In your heart; the place where I belong…
in your heart; where nothing can go wrong…
Take me away to that special place where there’s only space for us.
Take me to your heart.

Take me through your reasons for never givin’ up.
Even though I know I give you enough hell to give in.
Take me by the East Coast, remember that’s where you wanted to end up.
Take me now, to a place when I’m more than welcomed in.

In your heart; the place where I belong…
in your heart; where nothing can go wrong…
Take me away to that special place where there’s only space for us.
Take me to your heart.

I never knew that we would ever be something so great…as us.
Trying to plan out everything just has a way of making everything else just lose control.
And that’s why you’re here, to make it all clear once more.
Take me away, take me away, take me away, take me away - away,

In your heart; the place where I belong.
To your heart; where nothing can go wrong.
Take my away to that special place where there’s only space for us.
Take me to your heart. Your heart… Your heart…

Your heart…

PLEASE COME HOME (LIFELESS SOLDIER)
written by Ryan-Lee Contreras

Never worried, never scared…please come home – don’t you wanna see me grow?
Endless nightmares about you, ohhh, can you, for once, say no?

I’m not askin’ for much, just askin’ for peace.  Bring the hope back to my soul, oh, please.
I’m not askin’ for much just askin’ for you. Why won’t they bring you home?

I’ve been waiting forever for a lifeless soldier.
Waiting for a love that will never come back home.

Never give up, stand and fight, hold your ground.  The world is watching now.
Truth will rise up, taking back a love once found – bring you back safe and sound.

I’m not askin’ for much, just askin’ for peace.  Bring the hope back to my soul, oh, please.
I’m not askin’ for much just askin’ for you. Why won’t they bring you home?

I’ve been waiting forever for a lifeless soldier.
Waiting for a love that will never come back home.

(Instrumental)

I’ve been waiting forever for a lifeless soldier.
Waiting for a love that will never come back home.	

I’ve been waiting forever for a miracle worker…
waiting for a chance to hold you once more.


Please Come Home (Lifeless Soldier)

HEARD
Ryan-Lee Contreras

Lyrics:
There’s so many of you and only one of me.
I go day by day but no I can’t sleep,
when all I think about is “Will there be some peace for me today?”
…and won’t be humiliated again…

I sometimes wish you knew what it’s like,
to be standing on the other side,
and be the one who’s constantly told they’re not good enough.
I wonder how you’d feel.

All I want is my voice to be heard.
I no longer want to be hurt.
‘Cause it’s you who makes me feel this way,
you who makes me feel ashamed
when all I want is to be treated the same.

There’s so many of you and only one of me.
Why are you filled with so much negativity?
You can’t keep taking your insecurities out on me.
I have a life; I want to live free.

All I want is my voice to be heard.
I no longer want to be hurt.
‘Cause it’s you who makes me feel this way,
you who makes me feel ashamed
when all I want is to be treated the same.

So why don’t you try taking your own advice?
Why don’t you try thinking twice?
I wish you knew what it’s like,
to be standing on the other side,
and be the one whose constantly afraid to shine….

All I want is my voice to be heard.
I no longer want to be hurt.
‘Cause it’s you who makes me feel this way,
you who makes me feel ashamed
when all I want is to be treated the same.

ONE BREATH AT A TIME
Ryan-Lee Contreras

Lyrics:
Open up, come undone, let it all out.
Reach for love, like a dove – fly so high now.
Speak your mind, take your time, you’re safe and sound.
Go away, escape into the crowd.

Because you never know when God wants you home, so just keep Him safe in mind.
Because you never know when it’s your time to go, so just take one breath at a time.
At a time.…

Times get rough, friends are lost, but just let time heal.
Wipe your tears, there is more left to reveal.
Greater joy, greater peace, show me they are real.
Hope has come, hope has gone, hope will be once more.

Because you never know when God wants you home, so just keep Him safe in mind.
Because you never know when it’s your time to go, so just take one breath at a time.
At a time --- da-da-da…

And when you feel like nothing else can help you just close your eyes…
and pray that He’ll bring you strength to save you from losing your mind…

‘Cause you never know when God wants you home, so just keep Him safe in mind.
‘Cause you never know when it’s your time to go, so just take one breath at a time.
At a time --- da-da-da…

At a time…do what’s right.  Keep Him safe in mind…and as time goes by,
You are Hope, You are Peace, You are everything to me.

GOLD
Ryan-Lee Contreras

Well it’s seems like just yesterday, we were rushin’ to get to class to get out of everybody’s way.
Yeah, we were tryin’ our very best, to do the best we could and make the very best grades.

Take a look around, all these faces were once so new.
But they’re here now, here with you.

It’s been a long – long time comin’ just to say goodbye but know that we know what to do.
It’s been a long time runnin’, dreamin’ of that gold. Family and friends, Broncos ‘til the end…
Twenty-thirteen – the best that’s ever been.

Well we’ve all had our ups and downs, rivalry between a class that’s made history.
Whether it’s football, golf, baseball, track, cheerleading, One Act, basketball or band,
we’ve made our presence known – made victory.

Take a look around, all these people knew that we could make it through.
Got both feet on the ground, it’s time for Chapter Two.

It’s been a long – long time comin’ just to say goodbye but know that we know what to do.
It’s been a long time runnin’, chasin’ for that gold. Family and friends, Broncos ‘til the end…
Twenty-thirteen – the best that’s ever been.

Well we’ve all had a real good time; up and down these halls, we’ve had a ball.
Well it’s now time to say goodbye to all the ones who’ve prepared us all.

Fear disappeared as we progressed down through the years. 
So mama, please don’t cry, no more tears.

It’s been a long – long time comin’ just to say goodbye but know that we know what to do because of you.
It’s been a long time runnin’, reachin’ for that gold. Family and friends, Broncos ‘til the end…
Twenty-thirteen – the best that’s ever been.

I guess I speak for all when I say…

It’s been a long – long time comin’ just to say goodbye but know that we know what to do.
It’s been a long time runnin’, achieving that gold. Family and friends – we’re Broncos ‘til the end…
Twenty-thirteen – the best that’s ever been.

Twenty-thirteen – remembered ‘til the end…

Gold

DANCIN’ SLOW
Ryan Lee Contreras

Dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!
Dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!

Something’s pushin’ me a little closer tonight (dancin’ slow) tonight (dancin’ slow-ah-oh).
I feel your body and a voice tells me it’s alright (dancin’ slow) alright (dancin’ slow-ah-oh).
Caress my soul, gotta know, can you really be my knight? (Dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!)
It’s like we’re one, baby, run, will you runaway with me this time? 

And we’re dancin’ slow to the rhythm of love,
spot light shining down from the moon above.
Hold me close; wanna feel your beat,
gotta let your rhythm take over me.

And we’re dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!
Dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!

Something’s makin’ me a little daring tonight (dancin’ slow) tonight (dancin’ slow-ah-oh).
I feel your hands on my hips, you tell me it’s alright (dancin’ slow) alright (dancin’ slow-ah-oh).
Self-control, gotta know am I willing to put up a fight? (Dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!)
It’s like we’re one, baby, run, will you runaway with me tonight?

And we’re dancin’ slow to the rhythm of love,
spot light shining down from the moon above.
Hold me close; wanna feel your beat,
gotta let your rhythm take over me.

And we’re dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!
Dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!

Dance with me, for eternity,
until everything else fades away.
Dance with me, baby, spin me around.
Keep me on my toes, keep me proud…

(And we’re dancin’ slow) to the rhythm of love,
spot light shining down from the moon above.
Hold me close; wanna feel your beat,
gotta let your rhythm take over me.

And we’re dancin’ slow to the rhythm of love,
spot light shining down from the moon above.
Hold me close; need to- feel your beat,
gotta let your rhythm take over me.

And we’re dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!
Dancin’ slow, dancin’ slow-ah-oh!

Dancin' Slow

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR
Ryan Lee Contreras

The rain is pourin’ but you're nowhere to be found.
It’s almost half past two and you’re somewhere out in this town.
You say that I’m your world, so why am I left here all alone?
You wanted love, but your heart has turned to stone.

And now you’re wishin’ that I’d go?

Be careful what you wish for, ‘cause one day it will come true.
I’ll be walkin’ out that front door, just like you want me to.
Yeah, be careful what you wish for, it’s a matter of time.
And by then you’d wish you’d done more, don’t try to apologize.
Be careful what you wish for, love, ‘cause I’m takin’ back mine.

The sun is risin’, still you’re nowhere to be found.
It’s almost noon and you’re somewhere out in this town.
You say it’s all my fault, I caused it all…that’s why you hurt and shout.
My heart is burnin’, it needs to find a way out.

And now you’re wishin’ that I’d go?

Be careful what you wish for, ‘cause one day it will come true.
I’ll be walkin’ out that front door, just like you want me to.
Yeah, be careful what you wish for, it’s a matter of time.
And by then you’d wish you’d done more, don’t try to apologize.
Be careful what you wish for, love, ‘cause I’m takin’ back mine.

This is the end of the yellow brick road for you.
This fairytale won’t have a happy ending for you.
I’m tired of being treated like the wicked witch by you.
I’m tired of sittin’ here hopelessly in love with you.

But your wish will come true…soon…

Should’ve been careful what you wished for, ‘cause today it has come true.
Yeah, I’m walkin’ out that front door, just like you want me to.
Should’ve been careful what you wished for, it’s finally time.
Now are you wishin’ that you’d done more? No, don’t try to apologize.
Should’ve been careful what you wished for, love, ‘cause now I’m takin’ back mine.
