LYRICS FROM THE CD LIMITLESS

The Driver’s Seat

On life’s highway fast and free
Ignoring signs in front of me
Used to hurry here and there,
but I couldn’t get nowhere
I was living foolishly

My favorite word was always “No”
It held me back, out of the flow
Now its clear I must confess,
There’s more to gain by sayin yes
When love is in the driver’s seat

Chorus:
When I let love lead the way
Life gets better everyday
Now it’s plain to see
I’m where I need to be
with love in the drivers seat

Life is feeling pretty sweet
Smile at everyone I meet
Play the game but don’t keep score,
I don’t need to anymore
Love is in the driver’s seat

When I let love lead the way,
Life gets better everyday
Now it’s plain to see,
I’m where I supposed to be
With love in the drivers seat

Love, love, love (talkin’ ‘bout love)
Love, Love in the driver’s seat

Love, sweet love (oh sweet love)
Love (talkin’ ‘bout love)
Love in the driver’s seat

Love, love, love (talkin’ ‘bout love)
Love in the drivers seat…

Limitless

Claudia Carawan, © Heart Over the Bar (ASCAP)

Over the horizon, as far as I can see
There’s a wonderful world waiting, full of possibility
I’m ready and I’m right on track
Nothin’s gonna hold me back
I am limitless, I am limitless

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh— I am limitless.

There is much to learn, but this much I know
I will make a difference, whatever road I go
And I’m right where I belong, Hear me sing my victory song
I am limitless, I am limitless

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh—I am limitless

Repeat Chorus

I’ve got places to go on this bright day
And a heart to guide me along the way

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh—I am limitless

Brave

If I just show up, be open to surprise
There could be miracles, right before my eyes
If I let go, something better might appear
Who knows what can happen when joy replaces fear

Chorus:
When I dare to be all that I’m meant to be
Like shooting star across the sky, unstoppable and free
I’ll shine my light, turn darkness into light, When I dare to be brave

I’ll trust in who I am, be bold and take a shot
Who knows what will happen when I give it all I’ve got
Even when I’m scared, I’ll step into the ring
I’ve got so much to offer with the gifts that I can bring

Repeat Chorus

I’ve worried for so long, I’ve wasted so much time
But now I’m ready, to take the chance and claim what is mine

The path is free and clear, there’s nothing in my way
I listen to my heart and not what other people say
I’m gonna take that leap, I’ve never felt so strong
I might not do it perfectly but I’m right where I belong

When I dare to be all that I’m meant to be
Like shooting star across the sky, unstoppable and free
I shine my light, turn darkness into light
When I dare to be, brave
I will be, I will be brave

The Coming Light

Claudia Carawan & JD Martin

In my back yard there stands an old oak tree
She’s weathered far more storms than me
When the winds of life rage all around
She digs her roots deep in the ground

Chorus: The birds are singing, the bees are humming
The breeze is blowing fresh and bright
The world starts over and so do I
Welcoming the coming light, Welcoming the coming light

I took a walk down a downtown street
I saw a flower growing through the concrete
I was so impressed with this little one
Pushing through the rock, reaching for the sun

Repeat Chorus

Shine down, shine your light on me
Wash over me, chase away the shadows,
Cast your light on me

The birds are singing, the bees are humming
The breeze is blowing fresh and bright
The world starts over and so do I
Welcoming the coming light, Welcoming the coming light
Welcoming the coming light, Welcoming the coming light

I’m On my Way

Claudia Carawan & Roger Thomhave,

I have received a special gift this season
It’s the gift of letting go
I bring my burdens to this sacred space
And drop them in this burning bowl

Chorus:
Let the wind carry my cares away
I release them to the fire
I hear the calling of my New Year’s Day
and I am lifted higher
I’m on my way, (I’m on my way)
I’m on my way, (I’m on my way)
I’m on my way, (I’m on my way)
I’m on my way, (on my way)

I’m letting go of last year’s tired story
I don’t need it anymore
I’m letting go of things that do not serve
I’m stronger than before

Repeat Chorus

I am rising from the ashes
getting better every day

Let the wind carry my cares away
I release them to the fire
I hear the calling of my New Year’s Day
and I am lifted higher
I’m on my way, (I’m on my way)
I’m on my way, (I’m on my way)
I’m on my way, (I’m on my way)
I’m on my way, (on my way)
On my way (on my way)
I’m on my way I’m on my way)
I’m on my way I’m on my way)
I’m on my way I’m on my way)

Let the wind carry my cares away
Let the wind carry my cares away…

Groove Again

Claudia Carawan & LEA

Finding my groove again
I got my feet on shifting ground
Finding my groove again
Gettin up and slowing down

Taking my time, No need to worry
Taking my time, Letting life flow
Taking my time, Not in a hurry
Trusting in the moment
Watching the grass grow

Finding my groove again
I got my feet on solid ground
Finding my groove again
Tuning in and slowing down

Taking my time, Free and easy
Taking my time, I’m here to learn
Taking my time, Choosing to be me
Sun on my face as the world keeps turning

Finding my groove again
I got my feet on sacred ground
Finding my groove again
Breathing in and breathing out

Finding my groove again
I got my feet on sacred ground
Finding my groove again
Breathing in and out
I am—
Finding my groove again
I got my feet on sacred ground
Finding my groove again
Letting go and slowing down

Letting go and slowing down
And slowing down
And slowing down

We Need Each Other

Claudia Carawan & Harold Payne
© Heart Over the Bar (ASCAP), Harold Payne Music (BMI

This is the moment right here and now
to lay down our burdens and come together somehow
It might not be easy to cross this divide
Lord knows we’ve got to try
Let love be our witness
As we stand stand in forgiveness
We all want to find common ground

Chorus:
We need each other, we need each other
Now more than ever before
We need each other, we need each other
May peace in our hearts be restored

I’ve had a vision deep in my soul
where the rivers of compassion rise up and overflow
And wash away the enmity
with kindness & empathy
But no one can do it alone

Repeat Chorus:

This world is not perfect
But the struggle is worth it
And our dreams still can somehow come true

We need each other, we need each other
Now more than ever before
We need each other, we need each other
May peace in our hearts be restored

Independence Day

Liberated, I am free
Letting go of the story I once thought was me
No more limits, no wasted time
I’m gonna jump right in and take what could be mine

Chorus: I can see the world in a beautiful new way
Independence Day - ay - ay Day - ay - ay
Independence Day - ay - ay Day - ay - ay

So light the fire, Let’s start the show
We can only win, so let’s begin, let’s go
We’ll go crazy and move ahead
We can dance and sing let freedom ring instead

Repeat Chorus

I don’t wanna wait, gonna celebrate and make each day a holiday
Firecracker fly, rocket’s shooting by
Colors in the sky
Independence Day - ay - ay Day - ay - ay
Independence Day - ay - ay Day - ay - ay Track 10
Enough Love for Two
Claudia Carawan & Roger Tomhave
© Heart Over the Bar (ASCAP), Roger Tomhave (BMI

I sat on your shoulders to watch the band pass by
Taller than the trees, I was bigger than the sky
So many times you lifted me, Daddy
I was your girl, the apple of your eye

Memories that are only mine, fall upon the floor
I tell the stories, you nod your head
But you don’t know me anymore

You carried me when I was young, now I’ll carry you
I will carry enough love for two

Do you remember when I was so scared
I remember cause you were always there
You bailed me out so many times
With never a lecture, just a father’s care

Memories that are only mine, fall upon the floor
I tell the stories, you nod your head
But you don’t know me anymore

You carried me when I was young, now I’ll carry you
I will carry enough love for two

It’s okay Daddy, you’ve done enough
I’ll stay right here and hold our love

You carried me when I was young, now I’ll carry you
I will carry enough love for two, I will carry enough love for two
Yes, I will carry enough love for two

You’re not a stranger anymore, (you’re not a stranger anymore)
This house is built on Love, This house is built on love
This house is built on love
We’ll say it loud and say it clear, (say it loud and say it clear)
We’re so happy that you’re here, (we’re so happy that you’re here)

True North

Starlight, you guide the sailors who are lost at sea
You shine the light of freedom
for those who are not free.
Kings and fools walked over sands
following your glow.
I know you’re there, so my prayer is
shine your light on me.

I’ve changed, I’m not the person that I used to be,
Now my eyes are open, I have new clarity.
I’m letting go of playing safe,
of mourning what once was.
My time is now, it’s mine alone
I’m ready to be me

My true north, my true north
Guide me as I find my way
Find my own true north

I’ve been a weary traveler on a broken road
And now my inner compass shows me where to go
I’ve reached a place of trust.... I’m answering the call
The very things I needed have been with me all along.

My true north, my true north
Guide me as I find my way
Find my own true north

Oooh, Celestial skies reveal to me

My true north, my true north
Guide me as I find my way
Find my own true north

Guide me as I find my way, Find my own true north
