HEARTBEAT OF THE WORLD
One by one around the sun
We are marching to a drum
Can you feel the heartbeat of the world?
Two by two we’ll see it through
I am marching with you
Can you feel the heartbeat of the world?
Hear the sound All around
A message in the air
Feel the rhythm of the heartbeat of the world
Four by four and then a score
From a whisper to a roar
Can you feel the heartbeat of the world?
A million so many million
Voices of the men and women and children
Of the world
Hear the sound All around
A message in the air
Feel the rhythm of the heartbeat of the world
Here we come
This planet is our drum
We are marching to the heartbeat of the world
Here we come
This planet is our drum
We are marching to the heartbeat of the world

A Song of Hope

A Song of Hope
There’s a light in the window - shadows on the ground
Darkness is gathering near
The sweet sound of music fills the night air
A song my heart needs to hear
It’s a song of hope – a song of joy
Promising light will fill the dawn
In the secret corners of my soul’s bliss
I wait ‘til the darkness is gone
I wait ‘til the darkness is gone
There’s a star in the sky – the first to show it’s light
Offering to take away my fear
The music of the universe is playing for me
A song my heart needs to hear
It’s a song of hope – a song of joy
Promising light will fill the dawn
In the secret corners of my soul’s bliss
I wait ‘til the darkness is gone
I wait ‘til the darkness is gone
A promise for tomorrow
Is singing in my soul
I see the darkness fading
And the promise makes me whole
With a song of hope – a song of joy
Promising light will fill the dawn
In the secret corners of my soul’s bliss
I wait ‘til the darkness is gone
I wait ‘til the darkness is gone

Howl at the Moon

HOWL AT THE MOON
Howl…
When it feels like the world is going crazy
Everywhere you look its come undone
It’s a mad house of after shocks and gravy
Like you’re living in a house of fun
When the world is completely cock-a-doodle
Everybody’s singing out of tune
Don’t let your defences sweat the big stuff
Just lift your head and howl at the moon
Howl at the moon
Howl at the moon
When the world around you is going crazy
Just lift your head and howl at the moon
When it feels like you’re walking on a tightrope
And somebody’s messing with the knots
You look down at gators in the river
You’re stuck between a hard spot and the rocks
When it seems like the future’s topsey-turvey
And you’re teetering on the brink of doom
Don’t let your defences sweat the big stuff
Just lift your head and howl at the moon
Howl at the moon
Howl at the moon
When the world around you is going crazy
Just lift your head and howl at the moon
a oooh oooh oooh
a oooh oooh oooh
When the world around you is going crazy
Just lift your head and howl at the moon
a oooh oooh oooh
a oooh oooh oooh
When the world around you is going crazy
Just lift your head and howl at the moon
Lift your head and howl at the moon
a ooooooooooooooooh

WHEN I RISE
There’s beauty in the morning when I rise
There’s beauty in the morning when I rise
There’s beauty in the morning, a brand new day is dawning
There’s beauty in the morning when I rise
When I rise When I rise
When I rise When I rise
There’s beauty in the morning when I rise
There’s music from the heaven’s when I rise
There’s music from the heaven’s when I rise
There’s music from the heavens, angels singing in my garden
There’s music from the heavens when I rise
When I rise When I rise
When I rise When I rise
There’s music from the heavens when I rise
Joy is all around me when I rise
Joy is all around me when I rise
Joy is all around me, the light of love surrounds me
Joy is all around me when I rise
When I rise When I rise
When I rise When I rise
Joy is all around me when I rise
When I rise When I rise
When I rise When I rise
Joy is all around me when I rise
When I rise
When I rise

THE OLD APPLE TREE
One hundred years ago a young man bowed his head to pray
An aching in his heart he laid his sweetheart in her grave
Sickness ruled the land – dark clouds filled the sky
The world held its breath while he whispered goodbye
He planted a tree in her memory
Every year sweet blossoms fell
Time slipped away and he joined her one day
In the shade of an old apple tree
A hundred years pass by, a young man bows his head to pray
An aching in his heart he lays his sweetheart in her grave
Sickness has come again – dark clouds fill the sky
The world holds its breath while he whispers goodbye
He plants a tree in her memory
To last another hundred years
As time slips away, he will join her one day
In the shade of that old apple tree
One hundred years apart
The same broken heart
History repeating
History repeating
In the shade of an old apple tree

The Web

THE WEB
Come in…. come in…. come in…
I see you there in your Ivory Tower
Begging me to come in
Calling, calling, hour by hour
Using your web to spin
A story woven with suspicion and lies
A purpose evil as sin
You twist the truth and deceive
A spider wearing a grin
Come in…. Come in… come in…
Spinning, spinning a web of lies
Enticing me to agree
The poison your storing is not meant for me
Believe… believe… believe….
If I believe you love me
If I believe you care
When I place my life in your hands
What will I find there?
I see you there in your Ivory Tower
Begging me to come in
Calling, calling, hour by hour
Using your web to spin
A story woven with suspicion and lies
A purpose evil as sin
You twist the truth and deceive
A spider wearing a grin
Come in…. Come in…
A spider wearing a grin
Come in…. Come in… Come in…

DREAMS OF FREEDOM
I’ve been dreaming I’m flying wide open skies
Sweet dreams of freedom the world spinning by
I’m soaring and diving, free as a dove
Yesterday below me, tomorrow high above
I’m riding the wind, anywhere I please
High above the clouds, free as the breeze
Sweet dreams of freedom, my only guide
I’m dreaming I’m flying wide open skies
Troubles of the world, disappear from sight
Sweet dreams of freedom guide me on my flight
I’m riding the wind, anywhere I please
High above the clouds, free as the breeze
Sweet dreams of freedom, my only guide
I’m dreaming I’m flying wide open skies
Sweet dreams of freedom, Sweet dreams of freedom
Sweet dreams of freedom and wide open skies

Don't Think Twice

DON'T THINK TWICE
When you see your brother walking in the rain
When you see your brother walking in the rain
When you see your brother walking in the rain
Don’t think twice – call out his name
When you see your sister fight against the wind
When you see your sister fight against the wind
When you see your sister fight against the wind
Don’t think twice – ask her in
When you see your mother fall on her knees
When you see your mother fall on her knees
When you see your mother fall on her knees
Don’t think twice – pray with her please
When you see your father standing all alone
When you see your father standing all alone
When you see your father standing all alone
Don’t think twice – bring him home
When you hear somebody crying in the night
When you hear somebody crying in the night
When you hear somebody crying in the night
Don’t think twice – try to make it right
Don’t think twice – try to make it right

FLOWERS FOR TOMORROW
I am planting flowers for tomorrow
Seeds of hope are in my hand today
There is power in the simple act of knowing
There will be a world of beauty after the rain
I am planting roses in my garden
Lavender and poppies down the lane
Daffodils and daisies by the highway
Beauty will fill my world one day
I am planting flowers for tomorrow
Seeds of hope are in my hand today
There is power in the simple act of knowing
There will be a world of beauty after the rain
I am choosing beauty for my future
Rainbow colours dancing in the sun
Energy is flowing through my senses
Promising a world of peace to come
I am planting flowers for tomorrow
Seeds of hope are in my hand today
There is power in the simple act of knowing
There will be a world of beauty after the rain
I am planting flowers for tomorrow
I am planting flowers for tomorrow

SINGING IN THE CHOIR
You might sing high or you might sing low
We need you singing in the choir
You might sing fast or you might sing slow
We need you singing in the choir
You might sing sharp or you might sing flat
We don’t care one thing about that
Please don’t leave, come on back
We need you singing in the choir
All together now 1-2-3
Everybody sing along
All together now 1-2-3
Feel the power of the song
As our voices blend together
Hope keeps rising higher
We’re all on the same page
Singing in the choir
We might sing good or we might sing bad
We keep on singing in the choir
We forget all the blues we had
When we’re singing in the choir
We might sing big or we might sing small
It doesn’t matter one bit at all
Everyone is standing tall
When we’re singing in the choir
All together now 1-2-3
Everybody sing along
All together now 1-2-3
Feel the power of the song
As our voices blend together
Hope keeps rising higher
We’re all on the same page
Singing in the choir
Many voices fill the air
Many melodies are sung
Inside the circle of the song
We are one
All together now 1-2-3
Everybody sing along
All together now 1-2-3
Feel the power of the song
As our voices blend together
Hope keeps rising higher
We’re all on the same page
Singing in the choir
As our voices blend together
Hope keeps rising higher
We’re all on the same page
Singing in the choir
We’re all on the same page
Singing in the choir

Carolyn Harley Calgary, Alberta
I have been writing songs since I was a young mother and continue to write and record.
The muse in me is unrelenting and I love the opportunity to work with talented people who take my music to the next level.
I felt a strong connection to the 'great beyond' while writing these songs!!
