1. Lost At Sea (Perdido Al Mar) (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky) (Translation by Freddie Melendez)
Here we are again
Lost out in the deep, blue sea
No help below us
No sail above us
Just the endless sky
And everlasting blue, blue
Blue as your eyes
Blue as this day is long
Blue as the teardrops
Rolling down my face, my face
Aqui estamos de nuevo
Perdido en el mar ondo y azul
Sin ayuda bajo de nosotros
No hay vela arriba
Solamente hay cielo sin fin
Y un cielo azul y profundo, oh . . .
Un cielo azul como tus ojos
Un cielo azul como el dia es largo
Un cielo azul como las lagrimas
Que se corren sobre mi cara, mi cara
Here we are again
Lost out in the deep, blue sea, sea
Perdido al mar, oh . . . ah

2. Breaking Away (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
Breaking away, moving out
Grabbed my heart, and packed the car
Feelin’ light and fancy free
Open world ahead of me
Breaking away, I’m set free!
Burned his picture with the trash
Sold my diamond for the cash, ooh the cash
No more tears and no more pain
I pick-locked off that ball and chain
Breaking away, I’m set free!
Hold on! Gotta new plan to make
Hold on! Can’t you hear his poor heart break?
Ooh, heartache
On my knees I thanked God’s grace (thank you God)
Then the judge settled the case, ooh yeah
Ring the bell of Liberty
Now I can return to me ‘cause I’m free!
Breaking away, I’m set free
Breaking away, I’m set free
Breaking away, I’m set free, free!

3. Soft Again (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
Bruised, battered, lost and lonely
Locked inside to survive
Storm outside is over
Is it time?
Is it safe? Is it safe
To be soft again?
Is it time? Is it time
To live again?
I’ve been hiding for too long
I forgot how to smile
New friends bring me new promise
Clouds are parting
And I know I see blue sky
CHORUS
Even if thunder returns
Even if I repeat my past mistakes
I’m still stepping out in the sunshine
Smiles tells me I deserve a second chance
CHORUS
Bruised, battered, lost and lonely
Locked inside to survive
Storm outside is over
Is it time?

4. Love In Action (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
Love in action
May I take your hand in mine?
And if we stop and take time to help another
We’ll find love, true love in action.
I thought life was ‘bout mine being better than yours
I thought it was ‘bout who’s act was harder to follow
I thought it was ‘bout stepping on you to feed my hungry soul
Using selfish ways to survive
Then I saw hard times take my every dream
I saw them tear my world apart at its seams
I saw them make family and friends a priority
Their embrace brought meaning to my trials, and taught me ‘bout …
CHORUS
Somewhere in our childhood days
We learn love from the bible
Grown up in this rushed world craze
We can get stuck on survival, survival
Help us return to…
CHORUS
We’ll find love, we’ll find love, oh, love in action, ooh, love, love

5. Magic (Words and Music by John Farrar)
Come take my hand, you should know me
I've always been in your mind
You know I will be kind
I'll be guiding you
Building your dream has to start now
There's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake
And I’m guiding you
CHORUS
You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Your destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
I’ll bring all your dreams alive
For you
From where I stand you are home free
The planets align so rare
There's promise in the air
And I'm guiding you
Through every turn I'll be near you
I'll come anytime you call
I'll catch you when you fall
And I’m guiding you
CHORUS (2x)

6. Music in My Head (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
Chick a boom boom bah
I think about the time that we first met
Of the good things we did together
And then I remember the pain
Of how afraid I was to let you know
For now you’ve returned and now I wonder
What’s this strange noise roamin’ in my head
Now I feel fear and don’t know what to do
All this music in my head
Chick a boom boom bah
My friends, they smile in your direction
And they give me a nod of approval
I am so confused and I tremble
Could our apartness have caused a love to grow?
CHORUS
How can it be, not seeing you for so long
Makes me feel a longing to be near?
Can I trust this feeling or am I out of my mind?
Oh, I’m out of my mind, my mind!
The restless nights have left in me confusion
These feelings new and so strong
Desire overtakes me and I tremble
Were my actions of the past all wrong? All wrong?
CHORUS
For now you’ve returned and now I wonder
What’s this strange noise roamin’ on in my head?
And now you look so fine, so good
All this music in my head
This sweet music in my, in my . . . head
Chick a boom boom bah

7. Blue (Words and Music by Bill Mack)
Blue, ooh
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?
Blue, ooh
Oh, so lonesome for you
Tears fill my eyes 'till I can't see
Three o'clock in the mornin’, here am I
Sittin’ here so lonely, so lonesome I could cry
Blue, ooh
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?
Now that it's over, oh I realize
Those big words you whispered were nothing but lies
Blue, ooh
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?
Why can't you be blue, over me?

8. Another Goodbye (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
Well, my love, it’s time for me to go
Don’t want to leave but duty calls
Kiss the kids again
I’ll call you when I’m safe
And settled in at the base
So glad for our love
Grateful to be the man of our family
Just one more tour to fight
Oh, hold me tight
I need this love to be alright
CHORUS
Another Goodbye, another goodbye
You know me, short on words, tall on loving you
Another goodbye, another goodbye
I pray God’ll see us through.
Darling, I hold this moment in my heart
Kissing you before you’re on your way
I’m afraid
And I await your every word
Until you’re home safe again
I cherish our love
Oh, I’m grateful to be the mother of our family
There’s just one more torch to light
And I’ll keep it bright
‘Cause I need this love to be alright
CHORUS
Each time that we’re apart
You know it breaks my heart
Freedom is a bitter sacrifice
CHORUS
‘Till He brings me home to you
I know God’ll see us through.

9. Chamomile Tea (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
I never waited on no phone call
Not used to pacing floors and crawling up the walls
Ain’t used to my heart poundin’ in my chest
Or paintin’ my lips and toes fire engine red
Baby what you do, what you do to me
Adds a twist of lemon to my quiet little cup . . . of Chamomile Tea
Ain’t used to wondering in the back of my mind
‘Bout hot kisses and fingers down my spine
Not used spellin’ a word wrong three times
Or losing sleep over fantasies so divine
Baby what you do what you do to me
Adds a shake of sugar
With a twist of lemon to my quiet little cup . . . of Chamomile Tea
I ain’t lying, this all’s a fact
Love fever’s got this independent woman’s life off track, Oh yeah,
Ooh . . .
Ain’t used to squealing at girlfriends when they call
Or treating love songs as the word of God
My walk is different, I’m floatin’ in the breeze
My body says “You’re the man I need to please”
Baby what you do what you do to me
Adds a hot biscotti, with a shake of sugar
And a twist of lemon to my quiet little cup . . . of Chamomile Tea
Baby what you do, what you do to me
Adds some chocolate kisses, with a drop of honey
And a jolt of lightenin’ to my quiet little cup . . . of Chamomile Tea

10. Femininity (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
And here I sit, the candle burning bright
The soft, dim light
Hearing the echoes of the raves outside, the braves out by
The tall lamp light
Scoping the scene out for another night, another flight
While I’m inside, holding my pillow hard against me tight
Alone tonight
I dream of places where there is no fear, protection’s near
Imagine alleys where you cannot hear the sharpened gear
But it’s built inside, between our hearts and our minds
We must abide
To the screeching of a manimal
In the middle of the night
Ooh . . .
But it’s built inside, between our hearts and our minds
We must abide
To the screeching of a manimal
In the middle of the night

11. Suzy (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
CHORUS
Suzy’s on the radio
I just go the radio
Suzy’s on the radio
I just got the radio
Suzy’s on the radio
I just got the radio on
Suzy’s on the radio
I just got the radio on
She’s spinnin’ records, makin’ dough
I’m barely coasting along
Eatin’ rice every night
Walls of fear keep me from the light
A bundle of envy in my soul
They play her music every day
I play old tapes in my head
She’ll sing in town again on Tuesday
That night I’ll wish I were dead
Tryin’ to find the light of reason
Promise myself that maybe next season
I’ll write my own numbers down
CHORUS
They say her music’s really great (great)
And I think of the past
Yeah, she was a star from the start
My but she’s gotten there fast
Wishin’ for some courage
To make my dreams come true too
Lord above, I’m tired of singin’
The Blues to you!
CHORUS

12. Invitation (Words and Music by Karen Anne Litecky)
I’ve an invitation of the special kind
Satisfies the body and expands the mind
You pushed me out and slammed the door behind
That was out of line … ‘Cause
CHORUS
I just wanna be your lover
I just wanna be your friend
I just wanna be your lover
New trees have to bend
Don’t let us end, Don’t let us end, Don’t let us end
Don’t let us end
It’s been 7 months since I crossed the line
And about 8 years since I felt this kind
Of attraction that is so divine
Your hand in mine, Oh…
CHORUS
I know that it starts out easy
Then can get so twisted in our heads
But your quiet touch, it pleased me
Can’t we stay and love instead of running? ‘Cause…
CHORUS
Don’t let us end
