Bright eyes
Marlo Hower-Lyrics, Mark Minges - Music
Hey you with the bright eyes
can you see inside my soul
cuz if you do all my secrets would be known
you'd know I fell in love with you
with the very first glance
maybe you'll love me too
I say we take the chance
Oh you're gonna love me
ooh your gonna love me, love me
, love me, love me
I don't always know the right things to say
but I can't stop myself I tell you anyway
if you lay your hand on my heart
after you turn the lights down low
can you feel the magic in the moment
if you do you won't let go
Oh you're gonna love me,
oooh you're going to love me love me love me love me
Hey you with the bright eyes
we can be the perfect storm
just say you love me baby and we can do no wrong
Oh, you're gonna love me, oooh you're gonna love me love me love me love me

Broken Girl
Marlo Hower - Lyrics, Mark Minges - Music
She stood in the doorway
Watched her mama leave
Doesn’t shed a tear
But wears her heart on her sleeve
Too young to understand
What made her mama walk away
And the burden of that choice
A heavy weight every day
She’s a broken, broken girl
But she doesn’t have to be
Oh oh, how do I help her see
How do I help her see
How do I change her mind
She was the broken one not the girl
Not the girl she left behind
Put that drink down
Change your life, stand tall
I am right here by your side
Yes I’ll catch you if you fall
Broken girl the sun will rise so get some rest
Take the steps to rise above
Your mama’s mess
Oh, her life, her life is such a mess
She’s a broken, broken girl
But she doesn’t have to be
Oh oh, how do I help her see
How do I help her see
How do I change her mind
She was the broken one
Not the girl she left, not my girl she left behind
You’re not broken, broken girl
You’re not broken, broken girl
Not a broken, broken girl
You’re not a broken girl

Under Your Skin
Marlo Hower - Lyrics, Mark Minges - Music
Keep your head down, hide inside
Cuz if you don’t they might just find
The sadness that is lurking
Under your skin
Go outside into the rain
To hide the tears upon your face
So they don’t see the fear
That’s hiding within
It’s under your skin, it’s under your skin
Your thoughts are the poison keeping it in
It’s under your skin
It’s under your skin
You hide behind a painted smile
It keeps you safe all the while
So they can’t see the pain
That’s hiding within
You laugh though you just want to cry
Sometimes not knowing the reason why
The fear has gotten so deep
Under your skin
Nobody ever told you that it’d be so hard inside your head
You’re fighting your demons and feeling this dread
It’s under your skin, it’s under your skin
Your thoughts hold the power, the fire within
It’s under your skin
It’s under your skin
And then one day she saw the tears
She wipes them gone with all your fears
She held you tight, so you knew
You weren’t alone
Now what’s underneath your skin
Is the strength you knew you had within
You’re not alone
You never were
Your head held high
And your heart intact
And knowing someone’s got your back
There’s nothing left but hope
Under your skin

Will You Stay
Lyrics - Marlo Hower, Music - Mark Minges
She’s got a secret she can’t keep
Her life will change your both in deep
Whoa Whoa Whoa
You’ve been in love since long ago
And fate has led you here to grow
And you will grow
She’s probably really scared of what you’ll say
If you truly love her will you stay
She loves the life growing inside
Pieces of you both she fills with pride
She will not run away
But will you be the man she needs
Can you set aside your fear
Hold her close, be near
She’s probably really scared of what you’ll say
If you truly love her will you stay
Oh, do you love her
Then you will drop down on one knee
Tell her of the future you see
You’re perfect love affair
You know you’d never walk away
Pledge your love say you’ll stay
You won’t ever leave
And now she knows just what you’d say
You vowed to love them every single day
And she knows now what you say
You vowed to love them every single day

Don’t Let Me Go
Marlo Hower - Lyrics, Mark Minges - Music
We found each other
And never looked back
A love story more intense
Than Romeo and Juliet
And I beg you, don’t let me go
Don’t ever let me go
I need to breathe you in more now
Than I ever did before
Let’s stay lost in this deep love
It’s deeper than the ocean floor
I don’t need to see the surface
Keep me here, I must have more
And I beg you, don’t let me go
Don’t ever let me go
We’re everything we need
The food for each other’s soul
You are my life line
Together we feel like home
This is a real love baby
The best we’ll ever know
And I beg you, don’t let me go
Don’t ever let me go
I need to breathe you in more now
Than I ever did before
Don’t let me go - (twice)

Clarity
Marlo Hower - Lyrics, Mark Minges - Music
Straw hat, on my head
Sitting in a chair on the beach
Soft breeze sand in my toes
The warm summer sun slowly melting me
Is this a well known secret
Or one that I should keep
The beach can bring you clarity
That you just might need
Peace in my head not a care in the world
All is well with my soul
Too bad I found this place so late
Missed a lot of years to just sit and contemplate
Is this a well known secret
Or one that I should keep
The beach can bring you clarity
That you just might need
Oh hell I think I’ll tell the world
Cause we can all use a little help getting back on track
After all we’re only human
And we can all get a little out of whack
Is this a well known secret
Or one that I should keep
The beach can bring you clarity
That you just might need
So pack a towel or a chair and I’ll see you on the coast
We’ll line up along the beach with coolers we will toast
To the beauty of this happy place where we let our troubles go
A big smile on my face and sand between my toes
Is this a well known secret
Or one that I should keep
The beach can bring you clarity
That you just might need
We’ll let our troubles leak into the bluest sea
And they will float away beyond where we can see
By the time we leave, they won’t have made it back
This place is our Prozac
The beach gives you everything you need
……..It gives you clarity

You Found Yourself
Marlo Hower - Lyrics, Mark Minges - Music
Knock on our door
In the middle of the night
They said our boy was gone, that he’d,
He’d boarded a flight
We ran to his room
Just to prove them wrong
But we couldn’t because our,
Our son was gone
No one knew the secrets that dragged you down
You left a note
Beside your bed, it read
I’m trying to find myself
I need to clear my head
Your life was broken
Your head a mess
You struggled with addiction
You later would confess
How did we get here
How’d we miss the signs
Such darkness closing in
We prayed you’ll be alright
No one knew the secrets that dragged you down
No one knew the secrets that dragged you down
It took so many years but
You found your way
Back into our lives
And now you’re hear to stay
No one knew the secrets that dragged you down
No one knew the secrets that dragged you down
Now we know the secrets that dragged you down
No more secrets to drag you down

Pretty Little Lies
Lyrics by Marlo Hower
Music by Mark Minges
The words you spoke
shot daggers in the air
tips filled
with a venomous rage
And my pretty little lies
try to save the day
And my pretty little lies,
what do they really say
Left with wounds
wounds more painful than the others
because these words were spoken
between two blood brothers
how did you let these words
have this much power
my pretty little lies
try to save the day
so my pretty little lies, what do they really say,
what do they say
on this path, there is destruction
you must fight to recover
it's time to bring it all back
to the love for your brother
and my pretty little lies,
they try to save the day
my pretty little lies
what do they really say
pick up the fragments of all that is broken
piece them together like words remain unspoken
my pretty little lies saved the day
my pretty little lies knew just what to say
they knew what to say

Where Did We Go Wrong
Lyrics - Marlo Hower, Music - Mark Minges
We were going so strong, for awhile, and now we’re not
My heart skipped beats, when you smiled, now that’s gone
We were on this merry go ride
We go round and round and round
Where did we go wrong
Oh, It all feels so wrong
We played games with each others hearts
It went too far, it went too far
Now we’re in pieces , torn apart
Oh, we went too far
We can talk until we’re blue in the face
But we can’t seem to find a way back to that place
That place where we were in love
So instead we cling to the past
And try to hold on tight, when nothings left
We’re on this merry go ride
We go round and round and round
Where did we go wrong
We played games with each others hearts
We went too far, we went too far
Now we’re in pieces, torn apart
Oh we went too far
We search and we pray and we fight for the memories
But we don’t know what we’re waiting for
It’s really time for goodbye, there’s no way to settle the score
Cut our losses, move along into the night, let’s finally, finally. Finally do what’s right
We rode the merry go ride
We went round and round and round
After it all went wrong
We played games with each others hearts
We went too far, we went to far
Now we’re in pieces, torn apart

Watch Over Me
04:11
|

I walk into this somber room
Grim lines upon their faces
While they begin a story
I do not wish to hear
But I sit and try to listen
When you wake up I will still be here
My love for us will never disappear
But if I’m left on earth without you
Please, watch over me
Please, watch …over me
We’ve watched you fade
From what was to what will be
Now we hold on tight
To all our memories
Too painful to say goodbye
So we say we’ll see you again
If you wake up I will still be here
My love for us will never disappear
When I’m left on earth without you
Please watch over me
Please watch …over me
The space that’s left behind
After you’ve gone
Nothing will fill it in
I will miss everything about you
Why did life have to end
When you look down I will still be here
My love for us will never disappear
And now I’m left on earth without you
And I know you’re watching me
I know you’re watching over me

We Are Happy Now
03:11
|

Packing up boxes it’s time for a change
Sad to say goodbye but our memories remain
Of this place where together
We made the most beautiful life
You were happy then
I was happy then
We had land in the woods
That looked over the lake
Where our hopes came to life
And our dreams they took stake
We built a house and we filled it
With family and friends
So together we could live
Our best life, oh it was the best life
And the kids were all wild
They forged bonds made to last
For years it transpired just as we desired
And our home filled with laughter and joy and so much love
You were happy then
I was happy then
The fires in the pit
Could be seen up to Mars
There were races to catch the most fireflies in jars
All of these moments forever etched in our minds
You were happy then
We were happy then
And now we have moved on to a new foreign land
Where the people come together and offer their hands
Before you know it your family
Has grown in the blink of an eye
We are happy now
We are happy now
And we’re as happy now in a new kind of way
No longer sad to say goodbye
To those good old days
Or to the place where our lives truly began
We are as happy now, as we were back then
We are as happy now, as we were back then
