Sing it with the melody
Then you and me
Will be singing in harmony

Adds spice and beauty

Music Is A Blast

Chorus
Music is a blast
Blast off!
Make the fun last
Blast off!
To reach a new dimension
Create to charge your engine
Music is a blast
Blast off!
Verse 1
You could find your star
Playing the guitar
Or maybe your gift
Is singing your own riffs
But practice is required
If you wanna be inspired
Use a drum to start the beat
You’ll know it’s right when folks move their feet
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2
Jazz or rock ‘n roll
Classical or soul
Rap or reggaeton
Whatever’s in your bones
Tune up and explore
The galaxy out your door
Energized and smiling
You’ll hit the stars ‘a styling
Repeat Chorus
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 BLAST OFF!
A Friend Like You
© Heise/Wolf
Verse 1
Sometimes you make so mad I could bop you in the head or hang you by your toes
Other times you make me laugh so hard that soda pop comes shooting out my nose
That’s how it goes, oh goodness knows
Fur can fly, laughs can cry, with a primo, number one, bona fide
Chorus
A friend like you … Better than the best
Always true … When put to the test
We stick like glue … And I can’t forget
A friend like you
A friend like you … Never lets me down
A friend like you … Will always be around
And a friend like me will never forget
A friend like you
Bridge
Time brings changes and rearranges the strangest things
But it can’t hide the light when souls take flight ‘cause there’s so much heart inside
Repeat Chorus
© Heise/Wolf
Verse 1
If you truly love you can hold the sun
And the power of the galaxy
If you give your all, even if you fall
You’ll be free
Chorus
You can touch the stars
With a dream in your heart
You’ll find your voice
And your part
The music in your soul will guide you
Take off you’ll soar
And reach what’s yours
No matter who you are
You can touch the stars
Verse 2
I wanna come along when you sing your song
And hear your unique melody
Note by note, it will grow and grow
When you believe
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
The impossible is only a moment away
When we remember all it takes is hope and faith
The Speed Of Love
© Heise/Wolf
Verse 1
Some people are mean, some people are rough
Sometimes they make your day pretty tough
Fighting won’t make the trouble go away
You can solve your problem in a better way
Chorus
The speed of love
Is the quickest way to a heart
The speed of love
Gets there before you even start
To change the world
With a power that’s undreamed of
The speed of light won’t be fast (good) enough
We need the speed of love
Verse 2
Anger is easy, anger is fast
Then it’s gone in a flash with nothing that lasts
It takes a real strength to live in peace
It’s not always easy to live your beliefs
Repeat Chorus
Tight
© Holly Heise, Shyanne Wilson, Leonard Wolf
Verse 1
It all starts with a simple inspiration
That leads you to your perfect destination
I love it when a melody takes flight
And who can resist adding harmony for a little spice
chorus
That’s tight
Yowh wowh
That’s tight
Yowh wowh
Feels right yowh wowh
Out of sight
When everybody joins in
Just wanna sing it again and again
That’s tight!
Verse 2
It never hurts to stretch imagination
We just might find a new sensation
Music’s sweet as a red velvet cupcake
The beat doesn’t stop while we perfect our mistakes
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
Side by side, doing our parts
Everyone sing your heart
Repeat chorus
Love Zone
© Holly Heise
Verse 1
You’re on your way toward your destiny
Just where that takes you is a mystery
But you hear that special call so brilliantly
A simple gesture’s how it starts
Touch another, watch the sparks
See teardrops turn into shooting stars
Chorus
You’re in the love zone
Where hearts can freely flow
You’re in the love zone
Where hope is home
Joy is known
Dreams are grown
Giving is a stepping-stone
United we go
With peace that shows
You’re in the love zone!
Verse 2
Some say a place out in the galaxy
Will make you feel love’s strength entirely
But if you look inside you’ll find infinity
Sharing and caring brings a bliss
Our soul is touched by it’s sweet kiss
The feeling always starts like this
Repeat chorus
Bridge
When you follow your calling you lift up others too
Cause you’re doing exactly what you were meant to do
When you’re into the zone it’s so easy to see
Everybody’s dream fulfills a need
Repeat chorus
Persnickety
© 2012 Holly Heise
Verse 1
Reach for your toes
These notes are low
Reach for the sky
For notes up high
Notes in the middle
We’ll all just wiggle
We hear different pitches
When the sound switches
Chorus
Persnickety, persnickety
Right where we want to be
Persnickety, persnickety
High, low or in-between
Persnickety, persnickety
Up, down and in-between
Each note lands just so
Persnickety, persnickety
Right where we want to be
Persnickety, persnickety
High, low or in-between
Persnickety, persnickety
Up, down and in-between
Whoopee, whoopee
Persnickety

8 Little Keys (The Scale Song)
Holly Heise
Eight little keys go dancing in time
Together they’re a scale when they play in line
Every note’s important to take us up and down
So sing the letters now it’s fun to make the sound!
The first note is C, the 2nd note is D, the 3rd note is E, the fourth note is F
The fifth note is G, the sixth note is A, the seventh note is B
And the eighth note is C
Eight little keys have alphabet names too
They’re still a scale with eight notes, it’s true
But if one is missing the scale is broke and sad
So sing and count with me and make the scale glad!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, wait, wait, wait…
I always sit and wait, for eight!
C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C
C, D, E, F, G, A, B, please, please, please
The last one’s a repeat, it’s C!
RISE
Holly Heise & Leonard Wolf
Verse 1
Tonight the sky is full of stars
But it's not as big as the hurt in your heart
Isn’t he just a speck in your mind’s eye?
I’ve been your friend and I hurt for you now
But I’ve seen you get up when you’ve been put down
He’ll wash out with a good hard cry
You might feel low, but I see the sun in your eyes
I believe in you and together we’ll shine
Chorus
We can rise
We can fly
Through the clouds above the night
Past the moon to a galaxy of light
Where stars are born and burn bright
We’re a force of nature about to ignite
Baby, you and I
We can rise
Verse 2
I wrote you this song to lift you up
Cause you belong on the wings of love
Take a chance and take off with me
Our music soars when words fall flat
Come share it me let's sing and laugh
Let the melody set you free
You might feel low, but I see the sun in your eyes
I believe in you and together we’ll shine
repeat Chorus
Bridge
Higher, higher - we can rise Higher
