Song - fly with me
When the times get hard, and you can't see a way through,
Just come into my arms dear, and I will show you,
When it get's too much, and you are losing yourself,
Don't give up my friend, and I will find you,
I am your angel, you are safe with me,
Oh just fly with me, I'll show you the way through,
Look at me, put your hand against mine,
Smile for me, the sun will always shine,
I'll hold you, until I see you smile, for me,
Fly with me,
Smile for me,
If you're falling apart, oh struggling too,
Close your eyes, I'll be there, fixing the pieces,
Of you,
I am your angel, you are safe with me,
Oh just fly with me, I'll show you the way through,
Look at me, put your hand against mine,
Smile for me, the sun will always shine,
I'll hold you, until I see you smile, for me,
Fly with me,
Smile for me,
Answer just one question for me,
Who is it that you want to be,
Be true to yourself, don't let anyone tell you no,
At the end of the day, it ain't them you control,
Look at me, put your hand against mine,
Smile for me, the sun will always shine,
I'll hold you, until I see you smile, for me,
Fly with me,
Smile for me,
Look at me, put your hand against mine,
Smile for me, the sun will always shine,
I'll hold you, until I see you smile, for me,
Fly with me,
Smile for me.

True colours – Cyndi Lauper.
You with the sad eyes,
Don't be discouraged,
Oh I realise,
It's hard to take courage,
In a world full of people,
You can lose sight of it all,
And the darkness inside you,
Can make you fell so small,
But I see your true colours,
Shining through,
I see your true colours,
And that's why I love you,
So don't be afraid to let them show,
Your true colours,
True colours are beautiful,
Like a rainbow,
Show me a smile then,
Don't be unhappy, can't remember,
When I last saw you laughing,
If this world makes you crazy,
And you've taken all you can bear,
You call me up,
Because you know I'll be there,
And I'll see your true colours,
Shining through,
I see your true colours,
And that's why I love you,
So don't be afraid to let them show,
Your true colours,
True colours are beautiful,
Like a rainbow!!
Watch me walk – Keri Noble.
Think I'm gonna do this my way,
I won't ask you,
Not gonna wait until you give the ok,
I'm alright with consequences,
Better than these fences,
Straddling the great unknown,
Playing it safe,
I won't behave,
I won't sit down,
Not gonna stick around,
To listen as you make your case,
Stealing my light,
Feeding me lies,
Now you’re gonna watch me walk,
This is the part where I start taking over,
Why should I let you decide,
Life is too short,
You blink and it's over,
So now,
You're gonna watch me walk,
Out of your life,
Think I'll take a vacation,
Don't need a destination,
Anywhere is fine,
As long as there's an absence of you,
I won't hang around waiting,
'Til you suffocate me,
Cuz it's the only thing that you know how to do,
I won't behave,
I won't sit down,
Not gonna stick around,
To listen as you make your case,
Stealing my light,
Feeding me lies,
Now you’re gonna watch me walk,
This is the part where I start taking over,
Why should I let you decide,
Life is too short,
You blink and it's over,
So now,
You're gonna watch me walk,
Out of your life,
I won't behave,
I won't sit down,
Not gonna stick around,
To listen as you make your case,
Stealing my light,
Feeding me lies,
Now you’re gonna watch me walk,
This is the part where I start taking over,
Why should I let you decide,
Life is too short,
You blink and it's over,
So now,
You're gonna watch me walk,
Out of your life,
Out of your life,
Lean on me – Bill Withers
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain,
We all have sorrow,
But if we are wise,
We know that there's always tomorrow,
Lean on me, when you're not strong,
And I'll be your friend,
I'll help you carry on,
For it won't be long,
'Til I'm gonna need,
Somebody to lean on,
Please swallow your pride,
If I have things you need to borrow,
For no one can fill those of your needs,
That you don't let show,
Lean on me, when you're not strong,
And I'll be your friend,
I'll help you carry on,
For it won't be long,
'Til I'm gonna need,
Somebody to lean on,
If there is a load you have to bear,
That you can't carry,
I'm right up the road,
I'll share your load,
If you just call me,
So just call on me brother, when you need a hand,
We all need somebody to lean on,
I just might have a problem that you'd understand,
We all need somebody to lean on,
Lean on me when you're not strong,
And I'll be your friend,
I'll help you carry on,
For it won't be long,
Till I'm gonna need,
Somebody to lean on,
Lean on me...
Mirror – Barlow Girl
Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Have I got it?
'Cause Mirror you've always told me who I am,
I'm finding it's not easy to be perfect,
So sorry you won't define me,
Sorry you don't own me,
Who are you to tell me,
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
I don't need to listen,
To the list of things I should do,
I won't try, I won't try,
Mirror I am seeing a new reflection,
I'm looking into the eyes,
of He who made me,
And to Him I have beauty beyond compare,
I know He defines me (Yeah),
Who are you tell me,
that I'm less than what I should be,
Who are you?
Who are you? (Yeah),
I don't need to listen,
To the list of things I should do,
I won't try, no, I won't try,
You don't define me (You don't define me) [x4]
Who are you to tell me,
That I'm less than what I should be,
Who are you?
Who are you?
Yeah!
I don't need to listen,
To the list of things I should do,
I won't try, no, I won't try,
Yeah,
Who are you to tell me,
That I'm less than what I should be,
Who are you?
Who are you?
Yeah,
I don't need to listen,
To the list of things I should do,
I won't try, no, I won't try.
