Eyes Dancing 03:29
Eyes Dancing by Marklyn Retzer ©2012 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP) i’ve been hiding my eyes in my glass hoping you wouldn’t see my doubt and hesitation as i savor my misery i don’t need to say it out loud it’s no great mystery because what i really want is you staring back at me give me one more smile start your eyes dancing set the world aflame like the explosion in my heart when i hear you call my name i’m trying to catch your eye hoping you’ll always see the strength and confidence you give me so effortlessly i want to scream it out loud wrapped up in this mystery because i’m looking up to see you staring at me give me one more smile start your eyes dancing set the world aflame like the explosion in my heart when i hear you call my name i don’t need to say it out loud it’s no great mystery because what i really want is you staring back at me give me one more smile start your eyes dancing set the world aflame like the explosion in my heart when i hear you call my name

She’s the World by marklyn retzer © 2003 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP) rain in the nighttime mist in the trees all I see she’s the world to me the roar of silence before thundering seas naturally she’s the world to me fragrance pervasive puts me at ease potency she’s the world to me softly and tenderly warm breath flows over me feeling indelibly free awash in tranquility as your love uncovers me wake up to ecstasy eye of the whirlwind weak in the knees can this be she’s the world to me starlight trickles through pleadies heavenly she’s the world to me

Family 02:22
Family by Marklyn Retzer ©2003 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP) Neighbors and friends is how our story begins And the longer it goes it seems it never ends With just a little time it was plain to see We all think of each other as family Mothers fathers sisters brothers We have so much in common lets help each other Beyond the way we look we’re the same under the skin You see things the same way and that’s why we’re friends Neighbors and friends is how our story begins And the longer it goes it seems it never ends With just a little time it was plain to see We all think of each other as family Living close just across the yard When we first got together it seemed so hard We thought we were different and we didn’t look the same But we smiled and walked on over and said hello anyway Neighbors and friends is how our story begins And the longer it goes it seems it never ends With just a little time it was plain to see We all think of each other as family
