Who I Am- 12/8/10

Locke-

(Chorus)
Well I was born in early December, I’m the child of the ice and wind.
I am True Love’s last defender, a sheep in wolf’s skin.
I am the best friend of Justice, the singer of that haunting song.
And I’ll be here when everyone is gone.
Yeah I have a light and dark side, like every other man.
But you know, when it comes down to it,
I’m content with who I am.

(Vs. 1)
Well you know I’ve been called a liar, and maybe it’s true.
And I’ve been called a player, who could never be faithful to you.
I’ve been told I’m crazy, with no respect for my own life.
And I’ve been told I’m trouble, a source of chaos and strife.
While all those may be true, there is so much more to me.
So much more behind these eyes, that no one wants to see.

(Chorus)

(Vs. 2)
I’m a wall you can pound on, to let your anger out.
I’m the Silence in the darkness, when your heart just can’t get out.
I’m the blazing Red Avenger, when your enemies all are around;
And the strong-armed Protector, when life has got you down.
I’m here when I’m needed, and I’ll be gone when I’m not.
When you’re happy I can rejoice with you, or I can take all the pain you’ve got.

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
And I know you think that I’m still young, and that’s a lot to ask of me.
But let me assure you, Brother, Sister,
That’s all I want to be.

(Instrumental)

(Chorus x2 then Fade)

The One For Me (Duet)- 11/28/10

Duet by Locke

(Vs. 1- Girl)
He’s been coming here for a long time,
Since I don’t remember when.
Always gets the same thing,
And never drinks with friends.
But there’s something in his eyes,
That calls me to his side.
That lonely gleam in that gentle face,
He’s so shy but I’ll talk to him all the same.

(Chorus- Girl)
We could be two hearts brought together by the grace of God alone.
A man and woman destined to be together until our lives are done.
Now I’m not saying I’m gonna push my hand,
But if it happens to be God’s Plan,
He could be the one for me.

(Vs. 2- Guy)
Well I’ve been coming here for a long time,
I don’t even know why.
Maybe it’s the girl behind the bar,
Though I can’t get up the nerve to say “hi”.
But there’s something in the way her hair falls about her face,
That catches my eye and makes my heart race.
I’m so shy but I think I’ll talk to her the same.

(Chorus- Guy)
We could be two hearts brought together by the grace of God alone.
A man and woman destined to be together until our lives are done.
Now I’m too shy to push my hand,
But if this could be God’s Plan,
She could be the one for me.

(Bridge)
Guy- Oh, here she comes walking up to me.
Girl- Hey, I noticed you’ve been watching me.
Guy- I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to offend…
Girl- Would you like to get dinner after my shift ends?

(Chorus)
Guy/Girl- We could be two hearts brought together by the Grace of God alone.
Guy- A man and woman destined to be together until our lives are done.
Girl- Now God has gone and shown his hand,
Guy- I think this could be His Plan,
Girl- He could be the one for me…
Guy- She could be the one for me…
Both- This could be our destiny… (fade out)

Why Must You Leave- 10/7/10

Why must you leave?
Locke

(Chorus)
Why must you leave me alone?
I can’t live without you.
And why must you leave me alone?
I feel like I just found you,
I can’t even cry without you,
I can’t live while you’re gone…
While you’re gone.

(Vs. 1)
I loved you since the day we met,
But now you say you’re leavin’,
You’re gonna leave me behind.
You don’t know where you’re goin’,
You say you’ll be back someday.
But you know I can’t live without you,
I just couldn’t live that way.

(Chorus)

(Vs. 2)
Well this cuts me too the soul,
And my heart is screaming,
I think I’ll lose my mind.
I don’t know why you’re leaving,
I don’t know if you’ll be back someday.
I don’t know if I’ll survive without you,
I doubt I can live this way.

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
They say parting is such sweet sorrow,
But there’s nothing sweet about it.
They say it will pass come tomorrow,
But somehow I doubt it,
My heart can’t beat this way.

(Chorus x2)
