Eyes Dancing

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

Love’ll Do You Good
by Marklyn Retzer ©2003 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP)
Optimistic guardedly
moving forward cautiously
still i’m feeling certainly
that this is turning out quite pleasantly
wait till you see what we become
when we open up to joy
and have a little fun
love’ll do you good
love’ll do you good
overcome predisposition
embrace transition
integrate superstition
follow bliss awaken intuition
wait till you see what we become
when we open up to joy
and have a little fun
ooo --love’ll do you good
yea --love’ll do you good
no more trying
i’m diving in
to find what i will see
i’m choosing
unafraid of loosing
i just want you here with me
as our senses elevate
experience as we create
amazing love to demonstrate
this mystic blend our beings resonate
wait till you see what we become
when we open up to joy
and have a little fun
love’ll do you good
yea --love’ll do you good

Now by Marklyn Retzer ©2004 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP)
drink in the sunset
feel the sensual color swoon
ride the luminescence
floating from the moon
Sunshine moonlight
You bring the wow
you’re with me tonight
in this everlasting now
Breathe in the starlight
dripping on your skin
effervescent fragrance
blossoms from within
flowers starlight
You bring the wow
my joys take flight
in this everlasting now
soaking in the all absorbing presence
illuminating us in the present
senses alight
You bring the wow
pleasure delight
in this everlasting now

Windshield by Marklyn Retzer ©2011 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP)
you’re rolling along on a nice sunday drive
when you fly through the windshield but come out alive
a symphonic flash slowly fading to black
everything changes there’s no going back
your eyes open wide as you focus and breathe
to a looking glass world richer than you’d believe
the colors are brighter the sounds so much more
been this way so long, there wasn’t before
too ra la loo ra la loo ra la li
too ra la loo ra la loo ra la li
too ra la loo ra la loo ra la li
too ra la loo ra la li
live it up live it down
life your life you’ve got one go ‘round
there’s nothing better to do here tonight
than jump right on in, live your life, live your life
staring over the edge of the cliff for the dive
to the sparkling waters that seem so alive
take a step feel the air a unique way to fly
with the thrill in your heart you will truly know why
as you break though the surface of shimmering glass
soak in the moment (it’s) too good to let pass
the colors are brighter the sounds so much more
been this way so long, there wasn’t before
too ra la loo ra la loo ra la li
too ra la loo ra la loo ra la li
too ra la loo ra la loo ra la li
too ra la loo ra la li
live it up live it down
life your life you’ve got one go ‘round
there’s nothing better to do here tonight
than jump right on in, live your life, live your life

Tonight
by Marklyn Retzer
©2004 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP)
i stare at the phone trying to make it ring
i want to talk but i can’t tell you anything
tonight, can’t tell you anything tonight
i watch you move and i want you here
but i’m afraid if i touch you you’ll disappear
tonight i’m afraid you’ll disappear tonight
you spin my world
light my stars
do you even realize what you are
to me
mystery
i walk with you don’t know where to go
i pour out my heart ‘cause i want you to know
tonight i want you to know tonight
i rest my head in your lap for a while
most of all i want to see you smile
tonight i want to see you smile tonight
you spin my world
light my stars
do you even realize what you are
to me
mystery
do you know what you do to me
eyes wide open wild and free
i get so caught up in this fantasy
living is easy when you’re loving me
you spin my world
light my stars
do you even realize what you are
to me
sweet mystery

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
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

Love to Give
by Marklyn Retzer ©2014 Zoom Zzyzx Music (ASCAP)
I’ve been giving you a sign
You seem to pass it by
Won’t you throw your arms out wide
I’ve got more love to give
Pour it out for you to see
and show you all the time
I want you wanting me
I’ve got more love to give
Here I am standing at the door
Come on open up your heart
I feel it pounding and I want to show you more
I just can’t wait to start
Now I see it in you eye
You show me with that smile
and your arms thrown open wide
You know I’ve got more love to give
Here I am standing at the door
Come on open up your heart
I feel it pounding and I want a love forever more
I just can’t wait to start
I’m still giving you that sign
Now you see it every time
Never let it pass on by
We’ve got more love to give

E ola koa

With my koa ukulele
I’ll sing this song for you
straight and true
strong and good
the tree grows tall
it’s wood is good
the song calls out
from deep within
it’s voice sings out
for you my friend
E ola koa
Me aloha nui loa
He noio 'a'e 'ale no ke kai loa
E ola koa
the golden glow
and ringing tone
they are yours
but not yours alone
share your joy
live like the koa
live long and well
live like the koa
E ola koa
Me aloha nui loa
He noio 'a'e 'ale no ke kai loa
E ola koa
