Parachute
©2005, Bar Scott ASCAP
Here’s where I’m gonna be
There’s where you’re gonna be
Parachute
If you were here with me
I wouldn’t need to go home
Up above the air is filled with perfect sky
Clouds of pink and blue and some as pure as white
There’s where I’m gonna be
Will you be there for me?
Parachute
Here, in the center of the great unknown
Here where the seeds of life have always grown
It’s hard to be alone
Here’s where I’m gonna be
Here’s where I’d rather be
Here with you
If it could only be
I’d like for you to come home
Up above the air is filled with perfect sky
Clouds of pink and blue and some as pure as white
Here, in the center of the great unknown
Here where the seed of life in me has grown
I like to be alone
Come on now Parachute hold on tight and pull the shoot
come on now just parachute hold on tight and pull the shoot
come on now don’t be afraid to parachute back to me
Here, in the center of the great unknown
Here I am
I am
More

More than the moonlight on Long Lake
or her water on my skin
I love you more
than the sky as daylight breaks
from the darkness that was night
glorious night!
The sound of waves and sand beneath my feet
As far as my eyes will ever see
I love you more
than the joy of Christmas morning
and the lights up on the tree
I love you more
than the colors of the night
when I close my eyes and my dreams come to life
In pouring rain with pools around my feet
and soft summer rain that cools the heat
I love you more
When winter comes
and water forms in sheets and icicles
one snowflake falling
a miracle in flight
and when the morning comes and all is white
I love you more
With ocean waves and sand beneath my feet
In all that I see
You are to me
I love you more
Everyday People
©1969, Sly Stone Published by Warner Chappell
Some times I’m right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and them
Makes no difference what group I’m in
I am Everyday People
There is a blue one who can’t accept the green one
for living with the fat one
whose trying to be the skinny one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scoobeedoobeedoobee
Oh Sha Sha
We gotta live together
I am no better and neither are you
We are the same whatever we do
You love me you hate me you know me and then
You can’t figure out the bag I’m in
I am everyday people
There is a long hair that doesn’t like the short hair
for being such a rich one
that will not help the poor one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scoobeedoobeedoobee
Oh Sha Sha
We gotta live together
There is a yellow one that won’t accept the black one
that won’t accept the red one that won’t accept the white one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scoobeedoobeedoobee
Oh Sha Sha
We’ve got to live together
I am everyday people

Sarah, Sarah, Where are you, Sarah?
Sarah, try and find me ‘cause I’m hiding
far away with a girl who had started to find
secrets that somebody else had to hide
I always thought that I could fly then
Pain and everything
Sarah
When I love I feel love, Sarah
Lie with the lions and the lions will lie
Their dark eyes must hide what’s beyond them
I hide with the hiders you hide with the lies
If we hide with the hiders and lies
never calling “Ally, Ally, Come In!”
we’ll never know if I can fly with pain and everything
Sarah, find me soon
Sarah, Sarah,
Where are you, Sarah?
When I love I know love, Sarah
Come to Me
© 2006, Bar Scott ASCAP
you came to me when you were in need
you were in need
now I have come to you
so you will see
all I am and long to be
and now I will come to you
and let you in
love comes in
now I will come to you
and then you will see
all my love
please come to me
Here I Am

Here I am on a country road
I am alone
Here I am on a bridge of stone
I am alone
And I can’t go home
can’t go home
can’t go home
Here I am on a mountain throne
I am alone
Here I am in a desert storm
And I can’t go home
can’t go home
can’t go home
Home
Where the horizon and forever meet
And love lives
And I’ll wake in the morning with you
And laugh and live and love you
Here I am
Here I am in a garden grown
I am alone
Here I am on a bridge unknown
I am alone
And I’m goin’ home
goin’ home
goin’ home
Blinded by the Love

Please, come on love
I’m in need, come on love
I don’t need a conversation to know what I’m feeling inside
All I need is that sensation when I see your eyes
And I need your love to bring me around
To heal my heart, to heal my heart
It was just another morning like any other autumn day around here
You were near and I was needy but something was clear
You moved away before we met, never met
Now I’m blinded, blinded by the love
Now I’m blinded, so blinded by the love
I don’t need your lovin’ to know that I heat up just fine
I convinced myself my dreamin’ would make it all right
But I feel
How do you love? what do you love? How do you know if there’s something you do that is good for you or not, good for you or not?
How do you what do you how do you what do you how do you, how do you what do you how do you make up your mind if you feel? And I feel. And I need you comin’ around
‘Cause I feel
How do you feel?
Blinded by the love
Remember Love

For Mindy Jostyn, written for her Memorial - June 23, 2005, Woodstock, NY
Good-bye to garden flowers
and clouds that fill with rain
To lullabies and fairy tales and tears
Good-bye to sons and mothers
And kisses skin to skin
Good-bye to hurried hours
And planning months ahead
Hallelujah!
Candles light the evening sky
Burn with heat then melt into the night
I remember love
I remember music
I remember love
I remember your muse
Good-bye to prayers unspoken. Good-bye
I remember love
I remember music
I remember love
I remember your muse
Good-bye to songs and causes
and singing side by side
Good-bye to your sweet laughter
until we meet again
Set the World on Fire
©2005, Bar Scott ASCAP
From somewhere so far away the wind blew and found its way to me
and then it found you
It circled and spun you ‘round it lifted you off the ground
I knew that you could feel the wind
pull you higher over mountains to the clouds and through the valley
Your eyes lit up the sky
Set the world on fire
One by one and two by two we loved you and danced with you
in love with you
You held on you took my hand you turned me and spun me ‘round
‘til I was sure to feel the wind
feel the wind
Pull me higher over mountains to the clouds and through the valley
Your eyes lit up the sky
Set the world on fire
Pull me higher over mountains to the clouds and through the valley
Your eyes lit up the sky
Set the world on fire
Two little eyes light up the sky
Set the world on fire
Lie down and be with me forever I’ll be with you and feel the wind
Oh God

Oh God
Can I ask you this?
Oh God
Can you tell me this?
Can you hear me when I sing, Oh God?
Oh God
Tell me where he is
Oh God,
Please tell me where he is
I can’t hear you, can’t you sing, Oh God?
Oh God
I can tell you this
Oh God
I sure want to tell you this
I can hear you when I sing, Oh God
Wintertime

In the winter time snow must fall
When it’s cold outside
I need to thaw
Sometimes when I’m raw
I can feel my heart is breaking
But I don’t know
I don’t know
Valentine
©2006, Bar Scott 2006
On Valentine’s
I’ll send my love through the bluebird
I will sing to her
and she will sing for you, my love
Fly through the sky to heaven above
She will know you, Love
then sing her song to remind you
She will find a way
to tell you how much I love you
Three little words that mean so much
And when the day is over
I’ll hear her little melody
dreamin' as I fall asleep
I love you
Three little words that mean so much
Three little words are all I need
When it’s time to say good-bye
