hallelujah
Alicia healey
February 29, 2008
hallelujah that’s what she said
it’s in my heart, in my head
when things go good, it’s in my bed
feel it, feel it
hallelujah
hallelujah my dog and me
all I want, all I need
truth comes up on bended knee
feel it, feel it,
hallelujah
CH 1:
Day gets ripe with hope and prayer
I ask for answers
No one’s there
hallelujah
hallelujah my handsome man
does all that he can
gets twisted in a boy’s fool land
feel it, feel it
hallelujah
He bought a bag of hateful lies
Wasted time, wasted life
Morphine of the civilized
Couldn’t feel it
hallelujah
CH 2:
I’m too old to keep searchin’ ‘round
If I haven’t seen it yet,
It can’t be found
hallelujah
BREAK (over 2 CHORUS?)
u broke my heart too many times
I forgave you for too many crimes
Your messed up shit in your messed up mind
Can you feel it, feel it
hallelujah
The shame is that your memory’s gone
Your nights disappeared with the dawn
But you were there next to me
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
CH 3:
Too old to keep searchin’ ‘round
If I haven’t seen it yet,
It can’t be found
Day gets ripe with hope and prayer
I ask for answers (stop)
No one’s there
hallelujah that’s what she said
it’s in my heart, in my head
when things go good, it’s in my bed
feel it, feel it
hallelujah

You’re Mine
Alicia Healey, JAN 2008
V1:
Some say, if you break your heart it stays that way
Once love is gone it’s gone
So how did I find
Your heart just in time
Your mine, Your mine
V2:
Walks in the park, days on the beach
We never get that far
Just nights full of song
The world comes along
Your mine, Your mine
BRIDGE:
And when the scary time comes
Faced with another choice
I never worry none
‘Cause all I can hear is your voice
BREAK: (over bridge and verse)
BRIDGE
V3:
Blah
What are you to me
You’re my best friend
Beginning middle and end, You’re mine, you’re mine
You’re my best friend, my true love ‘till the end, You’re mine, you’re mine
Your mine,Your mine, You’re mine

Fly the Moon
Alicia Healey
February 2009
Long away, far ago
I finally found what I had to know
So I redefined the sun
Sometimes red, sometimes gold
Sometimes warm, sometimes cold
Far away, and all alone
But I looked again and saw
Several stars and planets above
And I knew that I was here for you
To fly the moon
Can a dream come true these days
Through all the noise, all the haze
When you took my hand I knew they could
Together we walk along our way,
Our new life, our new day
Never blinking , never missing a moment
And I looked again and saw
Several stars and planets above
And I knew I was here for you
To fly the moon
When you leave to make the world your own
No matter how far, I’ll always be your home
I’ll be here with the sun

Cheese
Alicia Healey, May 2008
Key:Am
V1:
Am | Dm (sus)
I took a week, maybe two
E | Gm
To figure out what to say to you
Am | Dm (sus)
It’s not a lie, but not quite the truth
E | Gm
To figure it out, here’s what we’re gonna do…
Dm (sus) | Dm (sus)
We’re gonna drink ‘till we’re drunk, Eat too much cheese
Am | Am
Talk about it all – at least ‘till you see
Dm (sus) | Dm (sus)
You won’t cry you won’t shout
E | E
By the end of tonight, you’ll beg to get out
CHORUS:
Am | Dm (sus) | Em | Gm
Am | Dm (sus) | Em | Gm
Am
V2:
After all, can’t complain to much
I forgot your brand and your touch
You’ve been slipping away for quite some time
I lost between subpar and sublime
Tipsy, you flirted with your new friend
I didn’t worry much, ‘cause we’d love to the end
But did you think of me, as she rolled on the floor
And my joke we had laughed at, hours before?
CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
E | E | Am | Am
Has our time come and gone
E | E | Am | Am
Did what feel so right, turn wrong
Dm sus | Dm sus | Gm | Gm
Will you miss me when the skies turn black
E | E | Dm sus | Dm sus
Or will you walk out that door, never look back
BREAK: (over CHORUS)
REPEAT V1: (softer with build)

Do Something
Alicia Healey
February 1, 2010
Do something – lie, cheat or steal
Do something – so I know that you’re real
Do something, to help me believe
I ran a mile to touch your face
I ran it back to keep my place
In the regular known
Sweet, safe and serine
CH:
Years go by, ain’t nothing change
You and I tag team taking the blame
Promise the best, plan for the worst
A dead-stupid plan
A living curse
Do (change?) something – though nothing is wrong
Do something – though we both still belong
To Something, that won’t go away
An ache in your heart, a burr in my brain
Every day begins and ends the same
I gotta do something
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
F Am 3x then G F then G to E
Broken keys and broken dreams – of mad adventure never tried
Standing still, a swirling swill, gotta wonder if we’d do, better if we left and we died
Catching normal never shaking it off, wondering we’d do at the bottom and top
Never getting dirty, each day like today, working so hard to keep it that way.
CHORUS
Do something – stay, come or leave
Do something – just do it me
Do something, to make me believe
Do something – lie, cheat or steal
Do something – so I know that you’re real
Do something, to help me believe
Let’s make believe we got something
