When Will I See You Again
Written by Fatima
You’re standing there with your hands behind your back
One single tear rolls down your face
As we embark on our separate ways
My whole world crumbles as I wonder
If this day will ever feel better
Will I always feel this numb
When will I see you again
How long will I have to wait
To hug you like we used to when
We were younger and you were were my fate
When will I see you again
I wake up in the middle of the night
Writing letters to you in the moonlight
Life is hard without your love I get by
But it only passes when I’m thinking of
When will I see you again
How long will I have to wait
To hug you like we used to when
We were younger and you were were my fate
When will I see you again
This state is living is not fair
I know it’s for the best for both of us
We sacrificed the days we could’ve spent close by
In hopes of future dreams
Do you remember the days
When all our pain was far away
Do you remember oh why, oh why, oh why
When will I see you again (it’s been too long my love)
How long will I have to wait (I miss you)
To hug you like we used to when
We were younger and you were were my fate
When will I see you again

Bring Back the Good Ol’ Days
Written by Fatima
Life seemed so simple then
Just playing with my friends
Glass of water it was free
The way things used to be
Running barefoot down the street
Boys trying to kiss my cheek
Playing hide and seek
That really was a treat
Bring back the good ol’ days
Remember when we had fun times
Bring back the good ol’ days
Come on you know that you like it
Summer days we used to have
Food, fun and friends all around now
Bring back the good ol’ days
I wish for things to change
This world is so strange
We fight each other every day
Why we gotta be that way
Guns and war are here today
But that ain’t the only way
Love can grow all around
Sign me up I am down
Bring back the good ol’ days
Remember when we had fun times
Bring back the good ol’ days
Come on you know that you like it
Summer days we used to have
Food, fun and friends all around now
Bring back the good ol’ days
Bring back the good ol’ days
Remember when we had fun times
Bring back the good ol’ days
Come on you know that you like it
Summer days we used to have
Food, fun and friends all around now
Bring back the good ol’ days
Bring back the good ol’ days
Remember when we had fun times
Bring back the good ol’ days
Come on you know that you like it
Summer days we used to have
Food, fun and friends all around now
Bring back the good ol’ days
Bring ‘em back them good ol’ days (Bring ‘em, bring ‘em, bring ‘em, bring ‘em back)
What you think this life is for (what’s is for)
Better take the good and leave the bad (always leave the bad)
Cause nothing beats loving living
Bring back the good ol’ days
Remember when we had fun times
Bring back the good ol’ days
Come on you know that you like it
Summer days we used to have
Food, fun and friends all around now
Bring back the good ol’ days

Alone
Written by Fatima
Sometimes I forget to breathe
Other times I don’t want to
Wonder if I’m running away
Or towards something better
It’s getting harder
Just to keep it together
Been around this block already twice
And I fought the tears off my eyes
I’m not alone, I’m not alone
I know there’s another soul who feels the same way I do
Sometimes when I fall apart
I feel like I will depart
But I count my blessings
In the same breath
As I pray for my strength
It’s these trying times
That make me who I am
It’s these trying times
That make me as strong as I am
I’m not alone, I’m not alone
I know there’s another soul who feels the same way I do
I’m a believer that time is a healer
It’s not fast enough for me
Every time I broke down
It left a scar in the wake of things
I feel alone, I feel alone
So where are all the other souls who feel the same way I do?
Sometimes I forget to breathe
Other times I don’t want to

Walking in the Sand
Written by George Morton
Seems like the other day
My baby went away
He went away across the sea
It's been two years or so
Since I saw my baby go
And then this letter it came to me
It said that we was through
He'd found somebody new
What can I do with it now?
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no no no no no
Walking in the sand
Walking hand in hand
The night was so exciting
His smile was so inviting
And then he touched my cheek
With his fingertips softly, softly
Softly we meet with a kiss
Whatever happened to
The boy that I once knew
The boy that said he'd be true
Whatever happened to
The night I gave to you
What can I do with it now?
