Track Name: Don't Leave Me
Don't Leave Me
by Trance Blackman

Don’t leave me crying, crying all alone
Don’t leave me crying on my own

You are the world to me, my only means of escape
You are my reason to live on

I’m so alone now, so alone without you
I’m so alone without you girl

Etched in my soul, you see
Something forever will be

You’ve gotta believe me girl,
I need you with me now.
Oh I need you with me now.

Chorus

Na na na na...
I need compassion, just to survive now
Don’t leave me crying on my own, no no.
Na na na na...
God knows that you’re the one, my one and only
Don’t leave me crying on my own, no no.
Leave me crying on my own..


You are my life blood, don’t ever take that from me
I need it for eternity

Come, let me take your hand, we’ll get away from this confusion
And live as we were meant to be

Don’t want no rivalry no, I want fulfilled destiny
So come and let me set you free

It’s no illusion, strictly reality
I’m calling with my heart now, take the chance with me

Won’t you take the chance with me..

Chorus

Girl be good to me..
Instrumental fade out..

Track Name: Cherish
Cherish
by Trance Blackman

Ooh, how your eyes invite me
A twinkle here, a sparkle there
All captivating

Ooh, how your mind compels me
Speak the words, I’ve never heard
Take my higher

Ooh, how your arms embrace me
Dancing in feelings, my heart is for stealing
And you can have all of me, so we can

Cherish… all the times together, beautiful girl
Changing the way, I want to live my life forever
Cherish it all!

Never ever take it away, from me, please!
Come close to me, baby, you’ll see
That this is how you sing for me

Ooh, how your smile delights me
A knowing glance, I’m in a trance
Scintillating

Ooh, how your body tempts me
A touch so soft, my control is lost
Will you make love with me!

(Bridge)
See I know your soul so well
Emotions teems, clouds me like a spell
Sing baby, sing for me!
Show me your love, show me how many ways that we can…

Track Name: Relevance
Relevance
words & music by Trance Blackman

When you ask your heart to feel for you
Are you expecting something new?
When you ask your heart to see what’s true
That’s all it does for you

Soft like the breeze from an ocean
Floating along the waves of joy
I notice the love that surrounds me
I notice the passion around what you see
But what do you see?
What do you see?
What do you really see?
What do you see?

When you ask your heart to feel for you
Are you wanting to hear the truth?
When you ask your heart to seek the truth
That’s exactly what it does for you

Soft like the breeze from an ocean
Floating along the waves of joy
I notice the love that surrounds you
I notice the passion… around what we see
But what do you see?
What do you really see?

… that’s the relevance to me
… that’s the relevance to me
… that’s the relevance to me
… that’s the relevance to me
… that’s the relevance to you
… that’s the relevance to you

Track Name: All For You
All For You
words & music by Trance Blackman

as it seems there’s always been some problem with this relationship
as it seems it’s always been concentrated on my misfortunes
as it seems it’s always been centered on myself for everything
as it seems we’re both strangely lonely yet not apart at all

what’s wrong with it
how can one fix it
what’s strange with this picture
who’s the painter here, what colour is he missing

I’ve learned, I’ve seen truth, I’ve seen my mistakes
Now I’ve taken my eyes off of me, put them on you

CHORUS
I’m now over me, all over myself
and I’m all for you
I’ve let go of me me and me, forgotten about my face
and I’m all for you, baby..

as it seems I may just have been totally selfish up till now
as it seems it obviously hasn’t worked any which way or how
as it seems we’re drifting a little and something needs doing
as it seems myself and I have been blocking all progress

I see what’s wrong with it
I know how I can fix it
I recognize what’s strange with this picture
I know the painter now, and I seem to be his easel

I’ve learned, I’ve seen truth, I’ve seen my mistakes
Now I’ve taken my eyes off of me, put them on you

CHORUS, SOLO

I see what’s wrong with it
I know how I can fix it
I recognize what’s strange with this picture
I know the painter now, and I seem to be his easel

CHORUS, FADE

Track Name: Remember
Remember
words & music by Trance Blackman

Do you remember that day, not so long ago
When you and I sat together, had a good laugh
Do you remember the innocence we felt then
You could say it was a day and a half

Life has a way of slipping by
If you don't learn to live it right
Everybody needs to be recognized
The same as you and me, just look in their eyes...

Remember, who and what you are
Remember, you don't have to travel so far
Remember, that Love is all you need
And find comfort in Me, find comfort in Me...

Do you remember that moment, when we first met
When you and I became one in our thoughts
Do you remember the tingle and awakening in your heart
So close to perfection, like modern art

Life has a way of slipping by
If you don't learn to live it right
Everybody needs to be recognized
The same as you and me, just look in their eyes...

Remember, who and what you are
Remember, you don't have to travel so far
Remember, that Love is all you need
And find comfort in Me, find comfort in Me...

Rippin' Solo...

Remember, who and what you are
Remember, you don't have to travel so far
Remember, that Love is all you need
And find comfort in Me, find comfort in Me...
Find comfort in Me
Find comfort in Me
Find comfort in Me, just try to remember...

Track Name: How to Fly
How To Fly
by Trance Blackman


I’m not gonna tell you, what to do, or what’s the right way
I’m not gonna tell you how to live, or to be careful

Like a child in innocence,
You’ve gotta make your own mistakes
If you fall who cares.
Get up and try again, get up and be someone

Murderers of the past, try to hide behind the broken glass.
Hideaway, don’t be shy, you’re gonna learn, how to fly!

‘Cause when the winds change again
All the leaves will blow back your way
When the storm turns around
Then you’ll know, what it’s all about
When the light shines your way, trust your wings
You know how to fly…

I’m not gonna show you, the proper way, of doing these things
I’m not gonna teach you the way that might cause you less pain

Acting on the simplest instinct
How you respond, is where your heart is
If you fail, who cares! On your feet, and try again

Murderers of the past, try to hide behind the broken glass.
Hideaway, don’t be shy, you’re gonna learn, how to fly!

‘Cause when the winds change again
All the leaves will blow back your way
When the storm turns around
Then you’ll know, what it’s all about

Yeah when the winds change again
All the leaves will blow back your way
When the storm turns around
Then you’ll know, what it’s all about
When the light shines your way, trust your wings
You know how to fly…

Track Name: Your Eyes
Your Eyes
words & music by Trance Blackman

Every time I look into your eyes,
I see something special, something so real

Every time I look into your eyes,
I feel something different, something so magical

Ooh, it’s like a fantasy
Ooh, I can’t deny ecstasy
Won’t you be with me, to hold me tight
Move with me, beautiful, come make it right

Every time I look into your eyes,
The life-blood inside me, grows fast in its flow

And every time I look into your eyes,
Oh how can I tell you, you just have to know

Ooh, it’s like a fantasy
Ooh, I can’t deny ecstasy
Holding your memory, it’s dear to me
I can’t be sad now, for I’ve found my peace

Instrumental Solo

Every time I look, at your face
I see pure mystery, I’m left with no clue

Every time I look, at your pretty soft face
I feel it in my heart, girl I’m so addicted to you

Ooh, it’s like a fantasy
Ooh, I can’t deny ecstasy
Bring yourself near me, I’ll cradle your soul
Open up your heart now, give me the controls

repeat and fade

Track Name: Today
Today
words & music by Trance Blackman


Have you ever taken the time to watch the moon rise
Have you taken a moment to see its graceful path
Have you taken the time to pick a flower for your lady
Today, today, do it today.

Have you ever taken the time to watch the sunset
Have you taken a moment to see its red glowing descent
Have you taken the time to kiss and tell her you love her
Today, today, do it today.

Do you ever recall those simple days, and running free
Do you reminisce about all the joy and laughter you’ve had
You’ve got to hold those things close, and face the world knowing it’s okay
Today, today, do it today

Do it today, you don’t know that tomorrow will ever come
Get to it right away, your gift of time may be almost none
Tell her the things that you think you should say
Tell her all that’s in that your mind of grey
Today...

Do you ever let yourself loose and just run free
Have you ever taken a chance, goofed around and played
Like the child you used to be
Will you ever drop your routine and just drive away
under the starlight..
Today, today, do it today.

Solo and fade

Track Name: Nothing So Right
Nothing So Right
words & music by Trance Blackman

For some time now it’s been around in my mind
Thoughts of you and me carry on in time
Funny how I seem to have held on for so long
For something love would bring maybe make me strong

When you tell me you’re not ready
I try to hold my soft heart steady
‘Cause something deep inside me knows
My love will follow anywhere she goes

CHORUS
Whenever I dream, I dream of kissing you
Whenever I imagine my life, I imagine it with you
Whenever I dream, I dream of holding you
Whatever it takes, I’m gonna hold on,
There’s nothing so right as loving you…

I know you’ve heard it all before, for sure
So what makes my words different, or pure
I think you sense the nature of my tone and voice
But baby I can see you doubt my loving choice

Seems the rough and tumble is your usual
You know me and I offer what’s respectable
So if you want to live life beautiful and free
Set your soul to flight and trust in me

CHORUS
INST. SOLO

BRIDGE
I can sense when you pull away
Go hiding somewhere like a stray
God help this heart be patient still
We’ll see the fruits of loving will
Give the gift of holding tight
My dream of loving you tonight…

CHORUS

Track Name: Runaway
Runaway
words & music by Trance Blackman

Sweetly sweetly my love filters through
All the thoughts I've handled meant for you
Softly softly my hands touch on you
Dreamy creamy skin so soft so new

Hold me, hold me promise to never let go
There's so much in my mind I have to let you know
Whisper whisper gentle words to me
I want to lose control now will you set me free

I'm a runaway... a runaway heart
I'm a runaway... I'm running to you...
I'm a runaway... a runaway heart
I'm a runaway... I'm running to you...

Gently gently a breeze comes in the room
The subtle light invades us from the moon
Slowly slowly the mood grows warmer still
Moving close as we kiss I am now at your will

I'm a runaway... a runaway heart
I'm a runaway... I'm running to you...
I'm a runaway... a runaway heart
I'm a runaway... I'm running to you...

..Instrumental Solo..

Join me join me in this dream come true
There's only room in my thoughts left for you
Softly softly our hands finally touch
Moments passing like hours this is too much

Love me love me the way I will love you
It's simple see if we trust each other too
Hold me hold me promise to never let go
I have so much I can give you my heart's aglow

I'm a runaway... a runaway heart
I'm a runaway... I'm running to you...
I'm a runaway... a runaway heart
I'm a runaway... I'm running to you...

Track Name: Wanted
Wanted
words & music by Trance Blackman

I want to hold you so much
I want to feel your touch
I want to be near you
to make you feel wanted
to know that you’re wanted by me

Oh when I miss you so badly
I want to kiss you so madly
I want to caress your skin
to make you feel wanted
to know that you’re wanted by me

‘Cause I don’t want to have to explain to you
Just how much I feel, when I’m alone with you
And I don’t want to try and put into the words
What you do to me when I’m by your side

I just want you to know

I want to be where you be
I want to sleep where you sleep;
to do whatever and anything
to make you feel wanted
to know that you’re wanted by me

I want to touch you everywhere
I want to feel your silky hair
and run my hands down your sides
to make you feel wanted
to know that you’re wanted by me

‘Cause I don’t want to have to explain to you
Just how much I feel, when I’m alone with you
And I don’t want to try and put into the words
What you do to me when I’m by your side

I just want you to know
I just need you to know

Track Name: Stay
Stay
words & music by Trance Blackman

It started just the other day
I caught your eye and had to say
Would you go with me and have this dance

Or is it just too quick, to quick an advance

'Cause I believe love grows from seeds
Words planted inside the heart of need
I'd give my mind, my world and gold
If you would love me, be for me to hold

Is there such thing as first sight

Is there reason for all this pride

How did you come into my life
Will you be staying on through the night

Stay, stay here now
I want this moment,
we can keep this moment
Stay, stay here now
For love this potent
Can't be beaten or broken
Please stay, I'm begging you please, stay with me

So today and on until the end
In life there is nothing worth pretend
My offer to you is committed and true
Please believe in me, can you trust me too?

'Cause I believe trust grows from seeds
Actions decided upon inside the heart of need
I'd give my mind, my world and gold
If you would love me, be for me to hold

Is there such thing as first sight
Is there reason for all this pride
How did you come into my life
Will you be staying on through the night

Stay, stay here now
I want this moment,
we can keep this moment
Stay, stay here now
For love this potent
Can't be beaten or broken
Please stay, I'm begging you please, please just stay!
Stay with me, won't you please, just stay...

EXTRO
stay with me, won't you stay with me
we have this moment, let's keep this moment .. (fade out)

Track Name: See the Sun
See the Sun
music & lyrics by Trance Blackman

You think that nothing ever goes your way,
You feel that everyone is your enemy
Desperate times, don’t be calling for desperate measures.

You feel that some things aren’t meant to be,
You see your dreams sometimes turn into a fantasy
Please be wise, no falling down, never close your eyes,

‘Cause you’ve gotta see, you gotta see the sun now.

CHORUS
See the sun, see the light of the morning,
radiance, love and...
See the sun, don’t you know, don’t you know
there’s always tomorrow
See the sun, open up your eyes,
see the time, see your life ahead.
See the sun, never lose faith,
never lose sight, never stop trying.

Now maybe your heart’s broken, I know it hurts
And maybe your soul’s been shattered and lost.
But with time, and a little prayer, you’ll see, they will all mend themselves.

You think that you’ve been made a fool of.
You feel that everyone’s got some secret kept from you.
But be wise, just believe in your heart, don’t close your eyes.

‘Cause you’ve gotta see, you’ve gotta see the sun now.

CHORUS
SOLO
REPEAT CHORUS AND END...
