Laugh It Off
04:36

When I was young
The world was big
I let my choices take me where they would
And finally, I looked up and found that I was writing songs
They warned me that
This life was hard
They said the chance I’d make it big was small
But I just laugh it off
Though they mean well I know it’s enough
If I had led a different kind of life
I know my heart would want something more
For not much can replace the rush of singing aloud
and making a crowd believe in a moment
In my short life
I’ve come to see
That songs can make joy last eternally
So I’ll just laugh it off
And carry on with what I love

That Swingin' Rhythm
01:44

Well it must be a groove that tickles my side
Lifts me up so high
It must be that good ol’ jumpin’ ride
I need that swingin’ rhythm
That sound is grand if you understand
I would not just stand by
You couln’t keep me off my feet
When I hear that swingin’ rhythm
When the blues get too strong
And the days get so long
I need that music nice and loud
And keep that rhythm swingin’ proud
Oh it lifts my spirits, fills the room
And I’m feeling so alive
So sing along with this here song
I need that swingin’ rhythm
That big band sound turns me around
The gypsy style brings me a smile
Oh how that swing taught me to sing
And it makes my life worthwhile
How that music gets me high
Brings tears to my eyes
My hips are swayin’ side to side
My lungs they holler high-dee-high
It brings the people out tonight
I need that swingin’ rhythm

In Love
02:42

I’m in love, I truly am in love
Before I didn’t really understand the meaning of
This feeling isn’t clear, until you draw me near
I couldn’t help but think that I’m in love
I hold your hand, it’s got me feeling grand
These simple words can’t emanate the warmth I have within
Some poets bring a tear, but simple words my dear
Are all that come to mind when you are near
Why should I complicate the situation?
Throw in all the adjectives I know
I’d rather use the short and sweet
To tell my man three words he’ll understand
A sentence strictly made to show affection that is grand
You shouldn’t hesitate, unless it’s your first date
To spread your wings and say that I’m in love

The Things I Do
03:15

I want to pick up your socks and line up our shoes
Fold all your laundry up and leave a note too
I like to do the things I do
The things I do I do for you
I feed you frozen cherries, without the pits
Give you all my kisses till I’m blue in the lips
And all these things I do for you
I brighten up when you call my name
Oh how my cheeks turn pink on cue
You’re oh so good to me my dear
And, well, it helps that you’re a dreamy guy too
You get me ice cold water in a glass for two
You never miss a show of mine, you’re always so true
So I can love you like I do
Because I know you love me too
I almost faint when I see your smile
Oh how it fuzzes up my head
You never let me leave without squeeze
But then again we rarely leave your bed
You’re kind and understanding
You wouldn’t deceive
He’s a perfect gentleman, you wouldn’t believe
So I can do the things I do
Because I know he loves me too

Comfort
02:11

Can’t get out of bed, this pillow’s got my head
Unwilling to set me free
We have a deal, this pillow and me
As long as it is soft I will lay in comfort
This duvet insists that I stay
So warm and cozy is she
I don’t fight against it, got nothing to prove
I’m hazy and lazy in comfort
It’s not that I’m moping, no reason to cry
No suffer or heartbreak, no tears in my eye
This high thread count bedding is simply divine
I’ve got nothing to do but bask in the sun
The day turns to evening and I’m still in bed
Living in dreamland, a place in my head
Perhaps I will stay here until I am dead
A life for me in comfort
