1.Time and Time Again
Don Chaffer & Ben Grimes
If they could pull your attention
To what’s coming on
You would cut your hair
You would mow your lawn, alright
You wouldn’t need a memory
Of younger days
Just playing in the waves
Of the cathode rays tonight
I wanna do better but I don’t know how
And I lose my head when I take a bow
And everyone’s up when I’m getting down
And that’s how it happens
Time and time
Time and time again
Time and time
Time and time again
She said, I don’t know baby
Maybe you’re the one
He said, Hell yeah, honey
I’m a man with a gun, alright
It was a rainbow summer
And the days were long
Somewhere, somehow
Someone went wrong
One night
Time and time
Time and time again
Time and time
Time and time again
Everything changes when life begins
Fixes what’s broken in the hearts of men
I haven’t felt like this since
God knows when
And that’s how it happens
2.It's Alright
Lori Chaffer & Don Chaffer
Gone today cause it’s hard to stay
When the line is long
Find the ache in the things that break
And the reel is strong
It’s alright
Alright though it seems
Like a dark night
A hard time in your dreams
Try to bring in anything
It’s not easy to do
You can see them getting even
When you’re through
Out in space
Holding a place in the atmosphere
Missing how
Everything felt when you were near
3.We Already Got It
Lori Chaffer & Don Chaffer
You take a little lovin’
You take a little time
You put it all together
Oh my, oh my
I got a little secret
I got a little rhyme
Let the roses have the red
And the violets have the blue
As long as you are mine. Oh
They talk about the way they want it
But we already got it
We already got it
They talk about the way they want it
But we already got it
We already got it made, babe
You start at the beginning
You start to run the race
And when you start to lose steam
Just look into my face
I got a little secret
I really wanna tell
When I look at you, I feel it
That old magic spell
4.Back Together Again
Don Chaffer
We came a long way
From up around the bend
We came from everywhere
And had a tear to mend
We came across the sea
And bore a heavy load
They made us pay the entry fee
And walk a rocky road
And it’s so good to be back together again
Yeah it’s so good to be
Back together again
We have a memory
That we don’t understand
We were a sight to see
But we made it to dry land
We didn’t have a plan
Oh, so unprepared
We took a long train
And this is the joy we share that it’s
So good to be back together again
5.Everybody Knows It
Lori Chaffer
Everybody knows it
It’s over in a minute
It’s over the instant everybody knows
Everybody wants it
Until they get it
Then they wanna forget it
Then they wanna go
Stuck in a hard place
You’re in a rough phase
There are people keeping you down
Then you see my face
And know it’s okay
You can get up off the ground
It’s like a bad day
Goin’ the wrong way
You can’t shake that awful sound
And then you see how
You still got me now
You can get up off the ground
6.So Good To Have a Friend
Don Chaffer
One word said, one word heard
And that soft landing of understanding
Talk gives way, nothing left to say
You don’t fight it
It’s alright if it’s just quiet
It’s so good to have a friend
Everybody wants one in the end
There’s no use in trying to pretend
I’m telling you everybody wants a friend
I’m telling you it’s
So good to have a friend. Hey
Deep regrets no one gets
But you don’t hide it
You’re not stuck inside it
The long, hard day
When the sun gives way to the night time
And the long climb, you just might find
That it’s so good to have a friend
7.Call It A Dance
Lori Chaffer & Don Chaffer
We can change
It’s not like we can’t pick
Our feet up off the floor
It takes a certain kind of brave
To believe you can leave
The road you’ve always walked before
We can face ourselves in the mirror
We can look real hard
At all those things that are not nice
When you move to the left
Move to the right
Call it a dance and you’re feet feel light
Carry that weight
Hold your head up high
Cause you move to the left
Move to the right
In the middle of the day
And the middle of the night
So don’t be afraid
It’s never too late to try
Sometimes life bears down
With the weight of a hundred suns
And when you find that the strain
Of carrying everything’s never done
Funny thing, but you know when you go
To the edge of what you can bear
You have the strength and you know why
Don’t you hope so
Don’t you hope so
Carry that weight
When you move to the left
Move to the right
Call it a dance and you’re feet feel light
Carry that weight
Hold your head up high
We don’t want to be left
We wanna be right
And kiss the dawn at the close of night
Don’t be afraid
It’s never too late to try
We can change
8.Get It Together
Don Chaffer
I know you told me
That you really didn’t mean to
I know that you’re not used to
Really bein’ seen through
I know, I know, I know
I’ve heard it all before
I know about the heat
You say that you were feeling
I know about the kinda
Blow that leaves you reeling
I know, I know, I know
I’ve heard it all before
You’re gonna have to get it together
You’re gonna have to get it together
Cause you’re comin’ apart
You’re comin’ apart
You say the things you think that
Nobody can see through
You snap the lock that you think that
No one has the key to
I know, I know, I know
You think about it, and it shows
Sometimes the clothes come off
Sometimes you see it naked
Sometimes you think you’re certain
Only to find out you’re mistaken
You’re gonna have to get it together
You’re gonna have to get it together
Cause you’re comin’ apart
You’re comin’ apart
You’re gonna have to get it together
9.Open The Door
Lori Chaffer & Don Chaffer
Walkin’ down the street
With my shoes on my feet
Got my mind on somethin’
That’s a little bit more complete
Where are you, where are you
I wanna know
Open the door
Open the door
I’m gonna find what I’m lookin’ for
I’m feelin’ fine
With my happy on my mind
I need a little somethin’
I don’t gotta lotta time
Where are you, where are you
I gotta know
Please let me, please let me
Please let me get what I need
10.Overcome It
Don Chaffer
I am going to try to overcome
The things that knock me down
Every time I dive into the water
I am trying not to drown
Four and twenty stones were piled
High down by the river’s edge
Remind yourself by any means
That the fall is the reason
They made a net to catch
Overcome it
Oh overcome it
When it comes against you, baby
Overcome it
Oh overcome it
When it comes against you, babe
Find the power down inside, the one
That cuts right through the noise,
And lose the old worn-out excuses
A great surrender will make a way for joy
I am going to try to rise above
The things that knock me down
11.I'll Go
Lori Chaffer
I can’t take it
I can’t fake it
I can’t breathe you out
Without breathing you in
I don’t hear right
I don’t see straight
I don’t feel the same
When you touch my skin
So I’ll go
I’ll go
I’ll go home and lock my door
You don’t love me
You don’t want to be free
I been trying hard not to run away
You don’t like it
You don’t have to
I know how it is a slap in the face
My friends tell me I should run away
My friends tell me I’m being played
They want me to see better days
But surely you would have me stay
12.Stay By Your Side
Don Chaffer
Get it wrong and everyone’ll say
You get a boat out
Just to see it blown away
If you lie and think you’re okay
You set a bone to break
Living on a little summer wage
Then break down
And you’re fallin’ all the way
Get it wrong and everyone’ll say
Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way
I’ll stay by your side
Til the darkness passes
I’ll stay by your side
Til the storm is through
Out alone you’ve gone a long ways
Got a weak will
And a thing you couldn’t say
Never sank, you rowed a load over
The early mountain lake
Now you’re on, you’re farther on gone
Countin’ on someone
That you say is just a pawn
Get it wrong and everyone’ll say
Ain’t that the way, ain’t that the way
13.No Doubt of Sunshine
Don Chaffer
The slender boughs of flowers
And the arc of growing leaves
The tender way the grass collapses
Underneath our feet
And the easy way
The sun gives out its sunshine
Come on, Come on
There is no doubt of sunshine
It’s another day
The sun gives out its sunshine
Come on, Come on, there is no doubt of
Sunshine again
Sunshine again
We’ll lay down our troubles
All those little things
No more holding back
The songs the morning sings
And the easy way
The sun gives out its sunshine
Come on, Come on
There is no doubt of sunshine
