1.	Okay With Me 03:22	lyrics	buy track
The rain is falling but still I feel serene Like I’m walking through a painting that’s hanging in a house filled with memories And I hear the same old sounds I’ve always heard Falling on my window like drops of dirt But somehow I don’t want to wash it clean The sky is cloudy but that’s just reality It’s like I’m living in a photograph taken of a daydream And I hear the same old sounds I’ve always heard Hissing like a fire that’ll never burn But somehow that’s okay with me And I’m fighting my feelings Trying not to believe in The voice that says life should be perfect And I keep pushing back On this expectation that Anything less than perfect is worthless ‘Cause I kinda like the rain And I don’t mind cloudy days They make me appreciate the sun And when all’s said and done I know I’m not the only one The wind is howling but that’s how it should be It’s like I’m floating on a gentle wave that’s pulling me out to sea And I hear the same old sounds I’ve always heard Drifting on the air like mockingbirds But somehow these problems are part of me And that’s okay with me That’s okay with me That’s okay with me The rain is falling but still I feel serene
2.	Sarah Beattie ft. The Found - Anywhere 04:22	lyrics	buy track
If I floated away on the breeze Would you find me? If I drifted far out to sea Would you find me? Oh I could go anywhere Oh I could go anywhere If I climbed to the top of a tree Could you reach me? If I touched all the clouds I could see Could you reach me? Oh I could go anywhere Oh I could go anywhere I’ll tell you a story of the places I’ve been Of the people I’ve seen Of the dreams that I’ve dreamed I’ll tell you a story of the people like me Who allowed themselves to be free If I circled some points on a map Would you come with me? If I said we might never come back Would you come with me? Oh we could go anywhere Oh we could go anywhere We’ll tell them a story of the places we’ve been Of the people we’ve seen Of the dreams that we dreamed We’ll tell them a story of the people like us Who allowed themselves to be lost Oh we could go anywhere Oh we could go anywhere
3.	For You 04:02	lyrics	buy track
I remember when you were born And I held you in my arms I couldn’t believe that you were so small Or that you stayed so calm Now I can’t remember what life was like Before you came around But I already know I’d do anything To keep you safe and sound Oh I didn’t have a clue about you What you’d like or what you’d do But I knew that I loved you And that I’d always be here for you I love it when you hold my hand When I’m the one you choose And you say my name about a hundred times ‘Cause you want me to run with you Now I know a thing or two about you I know what you like and what you do And I know that I love you And that I’ll always be here for you You love tractors and trains And rockets in space And you can name more flowers than I know You love spinning around Hanging upside down And begging us for one more go You were the missing puzzle piece We didn’t know we needed But it didn’t take that long For us to see it Oh I won’t tell you to not grow up ‘Cause it’s something we all have to do Just please remember as you grow up I’ll always be here for you Tell me everything about you Tell me what you like and what you do And please know that I love you And that I’ll always be here for you
4.	Optimistic 03:18	lyrics	buy track
Taking it slow to see where this goes and I hope you know that I am optimistic Taking our time to enjoy this life and I hope you know that I am optimistic Sat on your car to look at the stars and It’s not that hard to be optimistic We drive all day and maybe it’s too soon to say but I’ll say it anyway I’m optimistic It’s not like me to take a risk But something about you makes me optimistic It’s not like me to jump in headfirst But there’s just something about us I’m optimistic You meet my family and you still don’t leave me so I think it’s clear to see why I’m optimistic You take me to meet your friends and I guess it now depends on How this dinner ends but I’m optimistic Now you’re making plans and you’re talking bout a ring And I think we’re gonna take a chance on this optimism thing I’m trying very hard to be realistic But most of all I’m optimistic
5.	Ruth ft. Eleonore Sian Cockerham 04:15	lyrics	buy track
This world is cruel Sometimes I feel like all it does is take And each new tragedy Brings another wave of pain You tell me to go, you say it’s best for me But I know in my heart the worst thing I could do is leave (so) Wherever you go, I will go Wherever you stay, I will stay I’ll be your anchor, when all around is fading away Wherever you go I will go Wherever you stay, I will stay This road is long But I know it will lead you back home So as hard as it may be I won’t let you walk it alone You tell me you’re done, you say there’s nothing left But I know in my heart that there’ll be joy for you yet (and) I will never leave you And I will not forsake you I am on your side Whatever comes your way Though the valley is deep Though the mountain is high And the night may be dark I’ll be wherever you are
6.	Come Home Safe 05:06	lyrics	buy track
They were childhood sweethearts   And they married in 1910  Before the war began, and they were full of plans   About what life held for them  Then he signed up for the army   To keep his family free He waved to his son as he shouldered his gun  And his wife watched him leave  So she took a job at the steelworks  To do her bit for the cause  And she works with all the other women   Whose men have gone off to war  And she constantly waits for the postman   To see if her husband's safe  And she waits for his notes 'cause they give her hope   When she reads…  Darling, I love you today  And I'll take each day as it comes  Even though the world is falling around us For you I'll carry on And the same stars shine above us And the moon will be the same So I'll fight for you like I always have If you, will pray you'll come home safe So I can be with you again It's been two years since the war began And boys have stopped coming back Every time she gets another letter She prays it won't be his last Oh she tries to keep her spirits up And tell him that everything's fine But she's dying inside 'cause months could go by 'Til she reads… It's been six months since she heard from him That's the longest it's ever been They say he's missing in action So it's been a while since he was last seen But life goes on at the factory And the children have to be fed But every night as she turns off the light This is what she says...  Darling, I love you today  And I'll take each day as it comes  Even though the world is falling around us For you I'll carry on And the same stars shine above us And the moon will be the same So I'll fight for you like I always have And I, will pray you'll come home safe So I can be with you again Just come home safe
7.	Singapore 04:25	lyrics
I should be walking through the streets of Singapore I should be on a night safari I should be seeing things I’ve never seen before With you beside me All the best laid plans are falling through Can I be angry for a minute or two Oh and those dreams I had are drifting off Can I be sad for what I’ve lost I should be swimming in a clear blue sea I should be seeing paradise islands I should be sound new things and making memories With you beside me All the best laid plans are falling through Can I be angry for a minute or two Oh and those dreams I had are drifting off Can I be just sad for what I’ve lost Take a breath These dreams aren’t quite dead yet They still have time to come true But don’t lose what’s in front of you Walking through the streets of my home town Trying to see the good around me Trying to appreciate the here and now With you beside me
8.	Sarah Beattie ft. Becky Higg - We Both Know 04:11	lyrics	buy track
Here’s to the ones Curled in the corner Wondering how they can make themselves any smaller Here’s to the ones putting on a brave face Trying not to flinch As the punches come their way Oh we see you Oh we see you Here’s to the ones Crying themselves to sleep Praying that no one hears all of their agony Here’s to the ones shouting at the teacher Hoping that somehow Their message will reach her Oh we hear you Oh we hear you We both know that there’s sometimes not much to say We both know that I can’t magic this away We both know that the hard times will come and go But please know You’re not alone You’re not alone Here’s to the ones Silent and strong Standing beside those who can’t face this all alone Here’s to the ones giving all that they can To those who just need a friend Oh we need you Oh we need you We both know that there’s sometimes not much to say We both know that I can’t magic this away We both know that the hard times will come and go But please know You’re not alone We both know that there’s sometimes not much to say We both know that I can’t magic this away We both know that the hard times will come and go But please know You’re not alone No, you’re not alone
