Darling 02:59
Darling tell me that you love me I'm waiting here so patiently These arms have never held someone Their ready for your open arms, open arms When you're gone I want you near When you're here the world disappears Darling I heard that you might love me No words did ever sound so sweet I look to your open hand Hope that you could be my man Could you be my man? I fall to pieces at the mention of your love Like a comet in the dark sky up above As I looked at the stars that night I hoped that soon you'd hold me tight Your strong arms they just seem so safe Just don't let me run away Run away

Listening to love songs Thinking of you Wish I had the words to create to sing for you Yet the love you have is without end Each word can't stretch the length The difference of you is like a potion to me I am lost in the realm of your reality From the despair of this world you're a haven of safety Your kisses sing of hope's returning When the stars fell down and stayed to play in the corn fields The lake that gave the pink back to the sky These are the pictures I share with you in my mind I go back to feel the magic one more time By listening to love songs Thinking of you Sing along every time to try and capture the view Yet the beauty of our love is tomorrow is our friend Each day brings new pictures to my head When the shadows reflected off the mountainside The rain drops danced above our heads These are the pictures I share with you in my mind I go back to feel the magic one more time By listening to love songs, I go back to feel the magic on more time

Fear 04:26
There's a fear that I might lose you There's a fear that this will end As happiness smothers all my thoughts Will you be honest my friend Happiness is what we chase Happiness is all that we're striving for But when you have all you want Tell me is it what you've been looking for Or do you still ask for more Will I hold onto you more tightly To keep you from flying away But does the caged bird lose its beauty If I try to make you stay Constancy is what we want A plan to know our tiny world won't change But I have had my courses wrecked By the moon's will upon the waves So I cannot make you stay I am thankful for your words So precisely measured and poured I am thankful for the hurt If your love should bring the sword For I have seen a far country And distant stars peaking through the night Though your love is now unknown I know I will yet see the light For I have seen a far country And distant stars peaking through the night Though your love is so far away I know I will yet see the light

Walk with Me 05:13
Walk with me under a sky of countless stars Show me just how much light we can find in the dark Man is cruel, and the earth is deep The mud you stood in was almost up to your knees As we stare at the moon, I see life may have more pain with you Yet something pulls me in My life has been full of disappointments and defeats The darkest of these came directly from me As man was cruel to you I've been cruel to myself My pride muddied the deepest of wells As I stand next to you, all my hypocrisy pushes through Yet something pulls me in I'm better when I'm with you More of the person that I want to be Yet that's not why I love you There is something deeper still Yet that 's not why I love you There is something stronger than my will You speak truth when the lies stand tall Show me what is real when this world calls There will be days that never seem to end But we will walk forward, my friend

Baby 04:18
Baby I was blinded when you brought those butterflies I'd never seen beauty all around till you opened up my eyes When you told me that you loved me I will never forget By your car, under the stars, wearing that shirt of red That shirt of red Baby I was scared when that picture faded slow You became so familiar like there was nothing more to know And I saw you in your weakness, when you had nothing left to give No room for pretending about the life I dreamed to live I dreamed to live Baby when you saw me weeping from the weight of doubt I was a shell of the strength from when you first took me out And you loved that bit of nothing though it had nothing left to give You still hoped in the life that I could live That I could live The reality of love is so much more than I can say I've never been so seen as when you choose to look at me that way And it's stronger than the day when we promised to hold on tight It's brighter when we're walking through this night Through this night

Kissed Me 04:50
You took my by the hand Like so many times before Your touch felt like no one else at all My friend I trust you With my heart my body and my soul I give myself to you So we'll pick each other up when we fall On the night you kissed me I knew it would never be easy On the night you kissed me I knew I'd rather learn with you Though we might both be fools I'd rather learn with you than with anyone else Your skin is so different from mine Rough from what the years left behind My hands are soft and white Yet there's no difference in the dark of night On the night you kissed me I knew it would never be easy On the night you kissed me I knew I'd rather learn with you Though we might both be fools I'd rather learn with you than with anyone else On the night you kissed me An unlikely pair drew as one On the night you kissed me I knew you would be my one Now look how far we've come And we will journey on

about

Lilly Aline Iowa City, Iowa

Since my start writing songs in junior high, music has been a vital part of how I process the world, as I find inspiration from folk lyrics, jazz singing styles, and pop melodies. Around Iowa City, I can be found at the Mill’s Open Mic Night and singing jazz in the School of Music. Whether in a bar, church, or concert hall, I love using guitar and voice to express beauty and hope to audiences. ... more
