A compilation of covers by our ukelele-piano duo. Gripping harmonies and simple chord progressions--happy musicks.

lyrics

As we go on, we remember
All the times we've spent together
And as our lives change come whatever
(Together, together, together everyone)
We will still be friends forever
(Together, together, together everyone)

Here and now it's time for celebration
We finally figured it out, yeah-yeah
That our dreams have no limitations
That's what it's all about

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
(Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, woah)
I see me running through that open door, I believe I can
(Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, woah)

Cause it's hard to dance
With the devil on your back
So shake him off
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

Turn and face the strange ch-ch-changes
(One night and one more time)
Just gotta be a richer man
(Thanks for the memories)
Turn and face the strange ch-ch-changes
(Even though they weren't so great)
Just don't wanna be a different man
(He tastes like you only sweeter)

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
and I'll make a wish, make a wish
Take a chance, take a change
Make a change
and breakaway
(Cause we're breakin' free)

Soarin', flyin'
There's not a star in heaven that we can't reach
If we're trying well we're breakin' free
(Oh we're breakin' free oh)

I'll be there for you when the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you like I been there before
I'll be there for you cause you're there for me too
(Tell them how)

I am defying gravity
(Get ready for it, get ready for it, I came to win)
I'm flying high, I'm defying gravity
(Get ready for it, get ready for it)
And you can't hold me down
(I came to)

Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?
In daylights, in sunsets
(Boom, Boom, Boom, even brighter than the)
In midnights, in cups of coffee
(Moon, moon, moon, It's always been inside of)
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife
(you, you, you, and now it's time to let it)
In five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
(Through through through)
How do you measure, a year in the life?
(Feel the rain on your skin)

No one else can feel it for you
(In something unpredictable)
Only you can let it in
(But in the end that's right)
No one else, no one else
(I hope you have the)
Can speak the words on your lips
(Time of your life)
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
