"The Whole"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
Two poles only come together when they shift
So bring my head to the equator where my heart burns in the center
You know you're really good at this
Shifting the dualities and seeing the whole of me
Your love activates the whole thing
The whole thing
You are the key
Unlocking me whole
Touch me so gentle
you break me wide
Open
Wider
Dripping so easily, this heart of me
So sensually, the whole of me
Two souls come together when they fit
They say no fate is greater than When we really see each other
Your lips speak as softly as they kiss
The irony is the depth you bring sends me lightly drifting
Touch me so gentle
you break me wide
Open
Wider
Dripping so easily, this heart of me
So sensually, the whole of me

"Yearning and Pining"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
He's got the world in a mysterious hold
He wants to love her but he won't let go
Once the sun sets, he's home free
Cause darkness is a place he'd rather be
Yearning and pining for the fruit of day
How can he love her?
Till the sun rises, and the gray dusk fades
How can he love her so far away?
He's got a thousand stories untold
Each one never-ending, or his fate be sold
A common twist repeats on this
She has so many faces, but just one wish
Yearning and pining for the fruit of day
How can he love her?
Till the sun rises, and the gray dusk fades
How can he love her so far away?
Yearning and pining for the fruit of day
How can he love me?
Till the sun rises, and the gray dusk fades
How can he love me so far away?

"Hey Joey"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
Nothing is sacred no more
My body defiled and rejected
My health a stream of ranges
My heart a fallen castle
Embrace me in my weakness
Tongues degrading
and they're speaking easy
You touch me as I'm falling
A reward for past aggression
Hey, Joey what you say
The lover waits as while the sinner prays
Won't you rest your hard head
on my heart
Falling like the rain
As I try to save
That part of you that calls my name
You're castles resurrected
Your silence burns your tongue
Our eyes are hungry leaches
Our bodies are tired vessels
These paths are intertwined
Crazed minds now loosely laced
Setting ripples in still waters
Making bounds and bourders
Hey, Joey what you say
The lover waits as while the sinner prays
Won't you rest your hard head
on my heart
Falling like the rain
As I try to save
That part of you that calls my name
It says hold on
I can feel ya
It says hold
I can free your mind
It says hold on
There's still an angel in my heart
Hey, Joey what you say
The lover waits as while the sinner prays
Won't you rest your hard head
on my heart
Falling like the rain
As I try to save
my peace again
my peace again
Hey, Joey
What you say?

"Words"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
You said you'd never leave me
An abstract security
I once praised such spiritual things
A symbol of eternity
The hero never fades with whims and women
But I never saw the hero in your eyes
And I have no desire
For a love without a fire
Words, words, words
Are just sounds
A man who needs
to feed his greed
Is a liar after all
He denies the core of all his worth
An early death so grave
A lonely life with a bitter heart
And I have no desire
For a love without a fire
Words, words, words
Are just sounds
When will you learn to give?
When will you learn at all?
My compassion and concern never moved you
It never moved you
It never moved you at all
And I have no desire
For a love without a fire
Words, words, words

"Cry a Teardrop"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
You sat in the middle of a venue that I used to play
Waiting for both me and a reason to stay
Searching for smooth skin to wrap yourself in
You know you wore mine thin
So cry
A teardrop in my name
Lie, with that girl you know
It's all the same
Cry me a tear
Cry me a lake
Swim to your limits
Swim til you sink
Will I sink to the bottom
While you kick me away
Become ash in your cloud
As you ignite a new flame
Ignite that bright torch
For all the women you claim
You know the whole game is lame
So cry
A teardrop in my name
Lie, with that girl you know
It's all the same
Cry me a tear
Cry me a lake
Swim to your limits
Swim til you sink
Cry cry cry
Cry cry cry
Cry cry cry
So cry
A teardrop in my name
Lie, with that girl you know
It's all the same
Cry me a tear
Cry me a lake
Swim to your limits
Swim til you sink

"Fool in Love"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
You never fought for my love
Even though I thought you were the one
There's nothing more I give
I gave to you
Just like a fool
A fool in love will try to prove
Her strong emotions can change you
And just like a fool in love misunderstood
I did it all for a breakthrough
You won't speak kindly to me, even though my love is what you seek
There's nothing more you could choose
You stay angry just like a fool
A fool in love will try to prove
His strong emotions can break you
And just like a fool in love
Misunderstood, he did it all for a breakthrough
You're so foolish, love
You're so foolish, love
And I'm a fool in love will try to prove
Her strong emotions can change you
And just like a fool in love misunderstood
I did it all for a breakthrough

"Darlin', Don't Fight Me"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
I'm the one you've given to completely
I'm the one you raise above this city
And so I know, I can say just so gently
There needs to be a change
Come morning
Darlin', Don't fight me
Cause I'll win your love again
Darlin', Don't fight me
To break my heart's a sin
You're the one who gambles all my money
You're the one who drinks himself silly
And so I know, I can say so gently
There needs to be a change come morning
Darlin', Don't fight me
Cause I'll win your love again
Darlin', Don't fight me
To break my heart's a sin
Come morning to my bedroom
Won't you praise me like a queen
Come morning
I can be the candle in your night
I can be the fortress in your fight
I can be the one to make you right
Here with me
Here with me, darling
Here with me
Darlin', Don't fight me
Cause I'll win your love again
Darlin', Don't fight me
To break my heart's a sin

"Give to You"
Written by Jaclyn Shaw © March 2013
These days I put up a fight
Cause it's hard to trust with a past like mine
But I had my eye on you too long
Not to feel strong
You make me want to give to you
I want to give you all my love
Place my faith in a Lord above
I want to give to you
You help me lift a weight or two of the same and the doubt I travel through
You paint a country house in a windy June
Children's laughter fills the room
I want to give to you
I want to give you all my love
I want to place my faith in a lord a
Would you give to me like I gave to you?
Would you give it all?
Like I gave to you?
Would you give to me like I gave to you?
Would you give it all?
Like I gave to you...
Give Give Give Give
to you
Only you
Yeah
Just us two
I want to give it all
Give it all
Give it all, all, all, to you
You're all I need to believe in
Oh, you're my soul
The more that I give
The more I receive
When I give to you
I give it all to you
