I'd rather stand on the edge of a cliff
hang my toes over a bit
and then jump when they dare me
even if it scares me
and I get hurt
I'd rather build my wings on the way down
do my best not to fall to the ground
and then laugh at my mistakes
cause they're only lessons I'll learn
I'd rather burn with desire
deep in my soul
and love like a fire that's
out of control
and laugh
and dance
and fall
and chance
and kiss
I'd rather live my whole life
with a sense of abandon
squeeze every drop out
no matter what happens
and not wonder what I missed
I'd rather
Risk
Oh I just can't resist the chance to
Risk
Well I guess I could just play it safe
and forget about love hope and faith
with my eye on the shoreline
keeping my boat tied
and stayin' home
But I'll never discover new land
by keeping my feet on the sand
No I'd rather set sail
And get carried away by the storm
[Chorus]
Country Girl Lyrics – Paul Brandt
She's been in 4-H since she was nine years old
She wears overalls and has a heart of gold
She likes ATV'S and trucks, and fishin holes
But she's got a tender side
She don't let nobody tell her what to do
She thinks Jimmy Thompson's smile is kinda cute
She loves her mom and dad and she love's Jesus too
Well some things you just can't hide
She's a wild rose
Pretty as a picture and
hard to hold
off to chase the chickens
She’s a little tom-boy
but ain't she beautiful
Look out world She
Ain't afraid
running round barefoot
hair up in braids
but man does she look good
A little tom-boy
but ain't she beautiful
She's a Country Girl
Her mom and them just shake their heads when she runs by
she can't help but turn the head of every guy
If daddy even thinks about that day he cries
but whatcha gonna do?
Then the day her daddy dreaded finally came
the church, the gown, that boy, the rings. the weddin cake
She might be all grown up, but nothin's really changed
She wears overalls and has a heart of gold
She likes ATV'S and trucks, and fishin holes
But she's got a tender side
She don't let nobody tell her what to do
She thinks Jimmy Thompson's smile is kinda cute
She loves her mom and dad and she love's Jesus too
Well some things you just can't hide
She's a wild rose
Pretty as a picture and
hard to hold
off to chase the chickens
She’s a little tom-boy
but ain't she beautiful
Look out world She
Ain't afraid
running round barefoot
hair up in braids
but man does she look good
A little tom-boy
but ain't she beautiful
She's a Country Girl
Her mom and them just shake their heads when she runs by
she can't help but turn the head of every guy
If daddy even thinks about that day he cries
but whatcha gonna do?
Then the day her daddy dreaded finally came
the church, the gown, that boy, the rings. the weddin cake
She might be all grown up, but nothin's really changed
Hold On (Love Will Find You) Lyrics – Paul Brandt
It will find you at the bottom of a bottle
It will find you at the needle's end
It will find you when you beg and steal and borrow
It will follow you into a stranger's bed
It will find you when they serve you with the papers
It will find you when the locks have changed again
It will find you when you've called in all your favors
It will meet you at the bridge's highest ledge
So baby don't look down- it's a long way
The sun will come around to a new day
So hold on
Love will find you
Hold on
He's right behind you now
Just turn around
And love will find you
It will find you when the doctor's head is shaking
It will find you in a boardroom mostly dead
It will crawl into the foxhole where you're praying
It will curl up in your halfway empty bed
So baby don't believe that it's over
Maybe you can't see 'round the corner
To hang between two thieves in the darkness
Love must believe you are worth it
You're worth it
It will find you at the needle's end
It will find you when you beg and steal and borrow
It will follow you into a stranger's bed
It will find you when they serve you with the papers
It will find you when the locks have changed again
It will find you when you've called in all your favors
It will meet you at the bridge's highest ledge
So baby don't look down- it's a long way
The sun will come around to a new day
So hold on
Love will find you
Hold on
He's right behind you now
Just turn around
And love will find you
It will find you when the doctor's head is shaking
It will find you in a boardroom mostly dead
It will crawl into the foxhole where you're praying
It will curl up in your halfway empty bed
So baby don't believe that it's over
Maybe you can't see 'round the corner
To hang between two thieves in the darkness
Love must believe you are worth it
You're worth it
Learning How To Let It Go Lyrics – Paul Brandt
I've spent most my life
holdin on with all my might
I pull the reigns too tight
till I kill the thing I got
you'd think by now I'd
have this figured out with everything that we've been through together
Oh, this love can't really fly until I get the courage up to cut the string
I'm Learnin How To Let It Go
I'm learnin now that I was just a fool
to ever think I had control
You took me heart and soul
Now I'm learnin how to let it
I'm learnin how to let it go
I've been wasting time
so I hope somehow you'll find
A way to walk the line
you've had so much patience with me
you're the only one I want
you're all I need so here I am down on my knees
Go on and take me everything I have and all I am I give to you
This die-hard heart of mine always forgets
You never have it all unless you let it go
You took me heart and soul
I'm learnin how to let it
I'm learnin how to let it go
holdin on with all my might
I pull the reigns too tight
till I kill the thing I got
you'd think by now I'd
have this figured out with everything that we've been through together
Oh, this love can't really fly until I get the courage up to cut the string
I'm Learnin How To Let It Go
I'm learnin now that I was just a fool
to ever think I had control
You took me heart and soul
Now I'm learnin how to let it
I'm learnin how to let it go
I've been wasting time
so I hope somehow you'll find
A way to walk the line
you've had so much patience with me
you're the only one I want
you're all I need so here I am down on my knees
Go on and take me everything I have and all I am I give to you
This die-hard heart of mine always forgets
You never have it all unless you let it go
You took me heart and soul
I'm learnin how to let it
I'm learnin how to let it go
Scars Are Beautiful Lyrics – Paul Brandt
I've got this little scar that left it's mark down underneath my chin
from when I fell off of my bike back when I was just a kid
and oh, the pain, and how I cried, and I still remember how it bled
I know I won't forget that time and what my daddy said
Don't cry
It'll get better
In time
You'll soon forget
You'll be fine
right now it hurts some
but the healing hasn't happened yet
The pain
won't always be there
and someday
after the fall
These scrapes and scratches will remind you
of the hurt you left behind and you'll see that
Scars are beautiful
Each scar is living proof, ya they tell the truth 'bout places that you've been
They’re all roadmaps to life's lessons made by sacrifice and sin
And you can let 'em bring you down or you can hold your head up high
Don't let the chance you took to fall keep you from the chance you take to try
from when I fell off of my bike back when I was just a kid
and oh, the pain, and how I cried, and I still remember how it bled
I know I won't forget that time and what my daddy said
Don't cry
It'll get better
In time
You'll soon forget
You'll be fine
right now it hurts some
but the healing hasn't happened yet
The pain
won't always be there
and someday
after the fall
These scrapes and scratches will remind you
of the hurt you left behind and you'll see that
Scars are beautiful
Each scar is living proof, ya they tell the truth 'bout places that you've been
They’re all roadmaps to life's lessons made by sacrifice and sin
And you can let 'em bring you down or you can hold your head up high
Don't let the chance you took to fall keep you from the chance you take to try
A Friend Like This Lyrics – Paul Brandt
I know what you're going through
there were times I've been there too
we all need a shoulder to cry on
all those worries and anxieties
just let me put your mind at ease
cause the night is always darkest before the dawn
Yeah it's alright
it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
just let me light up the way
you never had a friend like this before
Sometimes it seems the road ahead
is twists and turns and all dead ends
it's hard to know which way to go
But I will be your life long friend
the one on whom you can depend
even when it seems like you're alone
Because it's alright
yeah, it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
It’s gonna be a brighter day
you don't have to worry anymore
you never had a friend like this before
Because it's alright
yeah, it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
It’s gonna be a bright new day
you don't have to worry anymore
you never had a friend like this before
never had a friend like this
you've never had a friend like this before
there were times I've been there too
we all need a shoulder to cry on
all those worries and anxieties
just let me put your mind at ease
cause the night is always darkest before the dawn
Yeah it's alright
it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
just let me light up the way
you never had a friend like this before
Sometimes it seems the road ahead
is twists and turns and all dead ends
it's hard to know which way to go
But I will be your life long friend
the one on whom you can depend
even when it seems like you're alone
Because it's alright
yeah, it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
It’s gonna be a brighter day
you don't have to worry anymore
you never had a friend like this before
Because it's alright
yeah, it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
It’s gonna be a bright new day
you don't have to worry anymore
you never had a friend like this before
never had a friend like this
you've never had a friend like this before
The Little Space Between Lyrics – Paul Brandt
It's now or never
Don't hesitate
It ain't true that good things come
to those who wait
Before forever
Takes all our time
We just spend moments
Till we spend our lives
Get 'er done
Get to it
Cause there's only one time through it
There's only one thing we're all heading for
It goes 1972 dash then
You leave your legacy
In that little space between
Have you forgiven
Did you forget
Is it worth keeping
All those regrets
And is there someone
Who gave it all for you
Don't that make you
Want to give it your all to?
You spend your money
You take each breath
You steal some kisses
You give and get
and then it goes
Don't hesitate
It ain't true that good things come
to those who wait
Before forever
Takes all our time
We just spend moments
Till we spend our lives
Get 'er done
Get to it
Cause there's only one time through it
There's only one thing we're all heading for
It goes 1972 dash then
You leave your legacy
In that little space between
Have you forgiven
Did you forget
Is it worth keeping
All those regrets
And is there someone
Who gave it all for you
Don't that make you
Want to give it your all to?
You spend your money
You take each breath
You steal some kisses
You give and get
and then it goes
Out Here On My Own Lyrics – Paul Brandt
The high-wire act is done
Safety net, don’t need one
Once you fall, it’s freedom and a song
I’m out here on my own
Out here on my own
With the Lord to guide me
And your prayers behind me, I feel strong
I’m out here on my own
And as I dream of you beside me
Love and faith still lead me through
And every road I take reminds me
I’m comin’ home to you
Out here on my own
If the spotlights dimmer
And the crowds grow thinner
And I’ll be home for
Dinner
With my songs
Instead of out here on my own
I’m out here on my own
Safety net, don’t need one
Once you fall, it’s freedom and a song
I’m out here on my own
Out here on my own
With the Lord to guide me
And your prayers behind me, I feel strong
I’m out here on my own
And as I dream of you beside me
Love and faith still lead me through
And every road I take reminds me
I’m comin’ home to you
Out here on my own
If the spotlights dimmer
And the crowds grow thinner
And I’ll be home for
Dinner
With my songs
Instead of out here on my own
I’m out here on my own
Let It Snow Lyrics – Paul Brandt
Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
It doesn't show signs of stopping,
And I've bought some corn for popping,
The lights are turned way down low,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.
The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-bying,
But as long as you love me so,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
It doesn't show signs of stopping,
And I've bought some corn for popping,
The lights are turned way down low,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.
The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-bying,
But as long as you love me so,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
A Gift Lyrics – Paul Brandt
On the other side of the world
there's a little boy or a girl
who's never heard about A Gift
or of Christmas or even what that is
That must have been how it seemed
back before that old manger scene
back before the world even knew
about Jesus and what he would do
It must have been so dark and cold
there must have been so little hope
Sometimes I wonder where I'd be
If no one had sent A Gift to me
But wrapped in mercy, grace and love
A Gift was sent from up above
Unconditional and free
That Little Gift changed everything
On the other side of the world
there's a little boy or a girl
Who all because of A Gift
Finally knows what Christmas is
there's a little boy or a girl
who's never heard about A Gift
or of Christmas or even what that is
That must have been how it seemed
back before that old manger scene
back before the world even knew
about Jesus and what he would do
It must have been so dark and cold
there must have been so little hope
Sometimes I wonder where I'd be
If no one had sent A Gift to me
But wrapped in mercy, grace and love
A Gift was sent from up above
Unconditional and free
That Little Gift changed everything
On the other side of the world
there's a little boy or a girl
Who all because of A Gift
Finally knows what Christmas is
White Christmas Lyrics – Paul Brandt
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Christmas Convoy Lyrics – Paul Brandt
Ah Breaker one nine, this here's the lead reindeer, you got a copy on me Frosty come on?
Ah ya 10-4 there Frosty, fer sure fer sure, by golly sure hope we still have a holly jolly one come on?
Yeah that's a big 10 4 there Frosty, yeah we definitely got our hands full tonight good buddy, mercy sakes alive we need a Christmas Convoy!
It was the dark of the moon,
and it was Christmas soon
Only a day away
D.O.T. was cracking down
and the toys had been delayed
we were stuck in a drift at the ol' North Pole
with eight mighty anxious reindeer
and if Santa didn't get some help
Christmas wouldn't come this year
We need a Christmas Convoy
this ain't no silent night
We need a Christmas Convoy
jingle bells and Christmas lights
Come on and join the Convoy
and nothing's gonna get in our way
Santa and his Christmas Convoy
in his great big Peterbuilt sleigh
Christmas Convoy
Breaker Frosty this here's ol' red nose, yeah you wanna move it on over for Santa?
Yeah 10-4, he's greasy side up but we're bout' to turn this salt-shaker out
well we all pulled outta the 'ol North Pole
ears on, eyes open wide
we were shaking the bushes, lookin for bear
in our triple digit ride
That wiggle wagon had his bird dog on as it hovered 'bove the ground
red green and white for chicken lights
decked out and loud and proud
Ah Frosty, yeah we're 10-33 and back door now, you're gonna hafta back off the hammer a bit cause we're double nickle and 'bout to hit the big road
Well the big elf blew the doors off
his eight reindeer powered ride
and flew on past the bear's den
in Georgia Overdrive
when on the black ice up ahead
there proved to be a pinch
a barricading roadblock
had been set up by the Grinch
Well there were teddy bears and cars and trucks and toys of every size
teetering out of the top of Santa's shiny ride
but Santa couldn't back 'em up
no matter what the cost
cause if he let that 'ol Grinch stop us
this year's Christmas would be lost
Ah Rudolph to Santa's Better Half, ah ya Mrs.
Clause you're gonna wear your bumper out if you don't back off a bit, we're coming up on antler alley, and we need all the help we can get
The grinch and all his henchmen
lined up on the road ahead
And Santa rolled his window down
and his nose and cheeks turned red
He pulled his hat on low and tight
and put the hammer down
and with a ho ho ho, he was slingin snow
singin Santa Claus is coming to town!
Yeah 10-4 Frosty what's your twenty? Guitar Town! Well they oughta know
what to do with them toys down there for sure, well mercy sakes good
buddy we gonna back on outta here, so keep the Grinch off your back, and
the toys in the sack, we'll catch you next Christmas, this here's ol red nose
in the lead, we gone, bye bye!
Ah ya 10-4 there Frosty, fer sure fer sure, by golly sure hope we still have a holly jolly one come on?
Yeah that's a big 10 4 there Frosty, yeah we definitely got our hands full tonight good buddy, mercy sakes alive we need a Christmas Convoy!

Hands Lyrics – Paul Brandt
It is the greatest story ever told
The Prince leaves his palace and his noble throne
To fight a battle for his subject’s souls
The fate of the world in his royal hands
And it was an unlikely battleground
With the cows and the sheep and the shepherds gathered round
As Mary held him her heart began to pound
The weight of the world in a baby’s hands
Betrayed by the very hearts he came to save
Father forgive them someone heard him say
Then like a gift He gave his life away
Held out to the world with His nail-pierced hands
The Hands that put the stars in place, bound by hands He made
When people ask what Christmas means to me
I think of the Prince up on that Christmas tree
I tell them about how His love set me free
When He changed my life with a touch of His hands
With His hands
The Prince leaves his palace and his noble throne
To fight a battle for his subject’s souls
The fate of the world in his royal hands
And it was an unlikely battleground
With the cows and the sheep and the shepherds gathered round
As Mary held him her heart began to pound
The weight of the world in a baby’s hands
Betrayed by the very hearts he came to save
Father forgive them someone heard him say
Then like a gift He gave his life away
Held out to the world with His nail-pierced hands
The Hands that put the stars in place, bound by hands He made
When people ask what Christmas means to me
I think of the Prince up on that Christmas tree
I tell them about how His love set me free
When He changed my life with a touch of His hands
With His hands
Go Tell It On The Mountain Lyrics – Paul Brandt
When I was a seeker
I sought both night and day,
I asked the Lord to help me,
And he showed me the say.
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere,
Go tell it on the mountain,
Our Jesus Christ is born.
He made me a watchman
Upon that city wall,
And if I am a Christian,
I am the least of all.
(Cause it was Him that told me to)
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere,
Go tell it on the mountain,
Our Jesus Christ is born.
I sought both night and day,
I asked the Lord to help me,
And he showed me the say.
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere,
Go tell it on the mountain,
Our Jesus Christ is born.
He made me a watchman
Upon that city wall,
And if I am a Christian,
I am the least of all.
(Cause it was Him that told me to)
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere,
Go tell it on the mountain,
Our Jesus Christ is born.
