Be Real Together
03:31
|

Can I see you? Can I hear you?
Even though we don’t agree?
Can I open up and try to understand
That everything we say and do
Comes from something deeper in me and you
And we’re doin’ the best we know
Just doin’ the best we know
In this heart of mine is a longing
To relax and let you in
And the deepest fear of just what that may mean
If I think about what matters to you
Will I still to my own self be true?
And we’re doin’ the best we know
Just doin’ the best we know
And I just want to be real together
Whatever that may look like as we bump along this road
And I just want to be real together
Whatever that may look like
Whatever that may be
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
Even when the stakes are high?
Can we be present no matter what may come?
Everything we need and feel
Is connected to what’s true and real
And we’re doin’ the best we know
Just doin’ the best we know
And I just want to be real together
Whatever that may look like as we bump along this road
And I just want to be real together
Whatever that may look like
Whatever that may be
I just want to be real together
Doin’ the best we know
Doin’ the best we know
Whatever that may look like
Whatever that may be
Can we see now? Can we hear now?
Can we take a look inside
together at whatever it may be?

Empathy Shuffle
02:54

So much time is spent looking for the answers
So much time is spent trying to figure it out
When all we really want is someone to listen
Someone to get how we feel
Oh, empathy, empathy
I hear you and you hear me
Welcoming each other to simply be
Hanging out together in empathy
We all have times when our road is hard to travel
We all have times when don’t know where to turn
We all want someone to walk along beside us
So we’re not walking alone
Oh, empathy, empathy
I hear you and you hear me
Welcoming each other to simply be
Hanging out together in empathy
Oh, empathy, empathy
How do I feel, what do I need
Oh, empathy, empathy
How do you feel, what do you need
We are alive and we have so many feelings
We are alive and we have so many needs
We are connected, we all are breathing
And we’re all in this together
Oh, empathy, empathy
I hear you and you hear me
Welcoming each other to simply be
Hanging out together in empathy

Beauty of the Need
03:27
|
|||
|
Welcome yourself home
Set yourself a place at the table
Notice what you notice and feel what you feel
And only do as much as you’re able
The body and the mind can both be freed
When we connect with the beauty of the need
Welcome yourself here
Treat yourself with kindness and care
Notice what’s around you and inside you too
And slowly turn towards what you find there
We can turn up fertile soil and plant a seed
When we connect with the beauty of the need
Needs are beautiful
Needs are universal
Feelings point the way
From the dark of the night into day
Welcome yourself home
Set yourself a place at the table
Notice what you notice and feel what you feel
And only do as much as you’re able
The body and the mind can both be freed
When we connect with the beauty of the need
Needs are beautiful
Needs are universal
Feelings point the way
From the dark of the night into day
Welcome yourself now
Take a breath and let it all go
Notice what’s alive inside you now
And let yourself remember what you know
That the body and the mind can both be freed
When we connect with the beauty
When we connect with the beauty
When we connect with the beauty of the need

More The Same
05:38

We all see the same sun
And we all see the same moon
And we all feel the earth beneath our feet
And we all breathe the same air
And we all share the same world
And we’re all more the same than we are different
So let’s hold each other gently
And teach each other softly
And heal each other lovingly
And let’s start giving
Oh, let’s hold the mother gently
And teach her children softly
And heal our world completely
And let’s start living
‘Cause we all see the same sun
And we all see the same moon
And we all feel the earth beneath our feet
And we all breathe the same air
And we all share the same world
And we’re all more the same than we are different
Yes we’re all more the same than we are different

The Greatest Gift
04:44
|

|
The greatest gift we can give
To ourselves and each other
Is to listen, to listen
When we lead with our hearts
Nothing can keep us apart
How do I feel and how do you feel?
And what do I need and what do you need?
When we lead with our hearts
Nothing can keep us apart
Love and care and kindness
And curiosity, curiosity
When we lead with our hearts
Nothing can keep us apart
The greatest gift we can give
To ourselves and each other
Is to listen, to listen

Breathe In, Breathe Out

Breathe in
Breathe out
Feel your feet on the ground
What do you feel in your body?
And for what does your heart yearn?
Breathe in
Breathe out
Feel your feet on the ground
You belong in this moment
And the earth will hold you here
Breathe in
Breathe out
Feel your feet on the ground
To the center of your center
Calling yourself home

For Love
04:19

I think I heard you say you're in a lot of pain
I think I heard you say you need to draw the line
I think I heard you say that you need another day
I think I heard you say that you need some time
So take your time
Take it easy
Let your body and your mind remember what they're here for
They're here for love
It's all for love
We're all here for love
I think I've heard you say in about a thousand ways
That the only thing you need
Is a time and place to feel like you've been heard
Without another word from me
A time and a place to just be
So take your time
Take it easy
Let your body and your mind remember what they're here for
They're here for love
It's all for love
We're all here for love
We're all here for love
I think I heard you say you're in a lot of pain
I think I heard you say that you need some time
So take your time
Take it easy
Let your body and your mind remember what they're here for
They're here for love
It's all for love
We're all here for love

May I awaken in this moment
May I remain awake
May I use this awakening
For all my relations’ sake
May I live a long life
in equanimity
May I bring into this world
Peace and harmony
Let it be so
Let it be so
May I give the gifts I came to give
Let it be so
Love in our hearts
Love in each action
Hope for our future
Hope for each new day
Let it be so
Let it be so
Let it be so
May you awaken in this moment
May you remain awake
May you use this awakening
For all your relations’ sake
May you live a long life

Joy in our movement
Joy in every step
Compassion for all people
Compassion in every word
Let it be so
Let it be so
Let it be so
May we awaken in this moment
May we remain awake
May we use this awakening
For all our relations’ sake
May we live a long life

Peace for our planet
Peace in every breath
Peace in our lifetime
Peace in every moment
Let it be so
Let it be so
Let it be so
