bend Words & Music: Jennifer Vazquez/ Music: Sadi Shreibman © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP Have you ever been silent for so long That the spoken word comes out wrong? And you find yourself a bit tense, Backed against the fence And you ride yourself to the floor When all you gotta do is... Bend a little more to let him in Bend a little more to let him in And you said just maybe it was me and not you And you said how unfair I could be How you dizzied me with your feel Oh baby this can't be real How you rollercoastered my mind Oh baby, I think it's time I... Bend a little more to let you in Bend a little more to let him in And now I'm warming up my heart And I'm tearing down that wall It's ok this time if I fall Bend a little more to let you in Bend a little more to let you in I'm finding all the words For once, opening my door I'm winding up the spool And rolling into you Yes I'm finding all the words For once, opening my door I'm winding up the spool And rolling into you Bend a little more... Oh, a little more... All ya gotta do is... All ya gotta do is... Bend

nothing without you © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP I'm happy, I'm sad, can't make up my mind But one thing I do know, when I think of you I start to glow 'Cause you're my truth, my dignity My lost youth I'm reaching to find I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing, without you, without you, without you... Lost my job today, rock bottom you might say Never felt so low in my life as I do now I took me down to ciderville where I knew that you would be Not a clue, oh answerless Still you showed me what you see in me 'Cause you're my truth, my dignity My lost youth I'm reaching to find I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing without you, without you, without you Oh now, you told me to improvise to set myself free And you said I'm halfway there And you said, "don't stop yet." You said, "you'll see, you'll see..." Oh, I've seen that... I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing... 'Cause you're my truth and my dignity My lost youth I'm ready to find... I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing, nothing without you I'm nothing, without you, without you, without you...

you and me 03:18
lyrics

you and me © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP Little Maeve was born today. Early December she made her way. Right on time, she didn't skip a beat. Look at those tiny hands and those tiny feet. That was once you and me. We used to believe in rainbows. Flying high for us to see The beauty within our reach, The beauty of being free. Now, it's 6:26 on that Monday night. Little Maeve has a smile on her face She's gonna sleep well tonight. Mama cries, Daddy don't know what to say. He's speechless now in every way. That was once you and me. We used to believe in rainbows. Flying high for us to see The beauty within our reach, The beauty of being free. And little Maeve colors and paints the days Purple, Green and Gray. And if she ever feels the strain, She remembers it's all a game. That was once you and me. We used to believe in rainbows. Flying high for us to see The beauty within our reach, The beauty of being free.

he's like strawberry milk © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP He's there sleeping while I'm still awake But I don't get up and leave Something makes me want to stay. Unknown territory, how could I feel so safe... As he's wrapped up next to me, I think it's plain to see That what he gave me When he said goodbye Was a new way for me to go back in time He's like strawberry milk when you were a child He's like the perfect purple gray sunset you haven't seen in a long while And he's how you feel when you're totally at ease... And he's like what you went through when you were in love at 16 Ah ah, Ah ah, My Strawberry Milk Man Timing is everything I must say... 'Cause he came into my life The perfect time on the perfect day His gentle smile and his soft touch His simple way of saying just enough Nothing to hide from or behind Well, he just goes ahead He says just what's on his mind He's like strawberry milk when you were a child He's like the perfect purple gray sunset you haven't seen in a long while And he's how you feel when you're totally at ease... And he's like what you went through when you were in love at 16 Now he's 5000 miles away, oh ya.... My smile still won't fade Strawberry milk when you were a child He's like the perfect purple gray sunset you haven't seen in a long while And he's how I feel when I'm totally at ease... And he's like what I went through when I was in love at 16 Ah ah, Ah ah, My Strawberry Milk Man Ah ah, Ah ah, My Strawberry Milk Man...

running out of time © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP How long does it take How long 'till I break How much can I fake Liking what I see in front of me Silly twisted youth Hidden in the wise Well, I can't compromise No, not anymore You see... I'm running out of time Oh, I'm running out of time So let's layer up the days And peel the baggage away A friend for life Help me solve this strife And stop me from dancing 'round the truth Stop me from dancing around the truth... I am what I know And I am all that I can see Far away I've gone so I'd, oh I'd come right back here to me And I dreamt of Miss Hollywood tonight Oh, she said she'd come for me As soon as she done twirling around the apple tree Oh, Miss, Miss Hollywood, she'll come for me Silly twisted youth Hidden in the wise Well I can't compromise No, not anymore You see... I'm running out of time Oh, I'm running out of time Six years back Felt I knew so much Stop this now Oh, I can't take it anymore You see, I'm running out the door While I keep running back for more Oh, now I, I swear to you She went by my door And I, I swear to you She told me so much more... Running out of time.......

rain fall down on me © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP Rain, fall down on me And cleanse me of all I've seen Oh, help me believe Now, I'm a traveler on this road, filled with highs and lows I chased my dream, lost my car, my house and now I'm broke Do I let go... Hell no... Rain, fall down on me Well, I just had an epiphany Oh, now it's all up to me You see, I'm a lover, not a hater, truth now be known I wear my heart on my sleeve for all to share with me It used to bother me... Not anymore... Rain, fall down on me The smile once lost, now can be seen Oh, cause I've made my peace And what I've learned is that life is too short You gotta ask and you'll receive Rain, fall down on me Rain, fall down on me Now, oh I, I do believe Oh, rain, fall down on me Oh, now I, I do believe It's all up to me Oh, now I've made my peace Rain, fall down on me Oh, I've, I've made my peace...

stepping stone Words & Music: Jennifer Vazquez / Words: Trevan Wong © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP Another endless night In my bed I lie Staring at cobwebs that hang from my ceiling Numb from my head to my toes without feeling Numb without feeling All the while I die But bring myself to smile 'Cause now that it's over I see how you saved me Somehow you took but somehow you still gave me Somehow you still gave me Now, oh it's clear Oh, I'm still here Washed away footprints Oh, how I've grown You were just, you were just... my stepping stone Learned from all the pain Tears not cried in vain I've healed from the heartbreak, no longer feel guilty I'm stronger than ever, your love didn't kill me No, your love didn't kill me Now, oh it's clear Oh, I'm still here Washed away footprints Oh, how I've grown You were just, you were just... Call it bittersweet, serendipity That you're, oh you're still you, But I'm a better me Oh ya, well now, oh it's clear Oh, I'm still here Washed away footprints Oh, how I've grown You were just, you were just... my stepping stone, my stepping stone Now you were just, you were just... my stepping stone...

am i a woman © Jennifer Vazquez/ Bronx Babe Publishing / ASCAP Gonna keep my feet close to the tar And my hair brown Gonna put on a suit and tie Put the man on inside of me for a while So they know I mean business They ain't gonna get me down But am I a woman You see, I forget sometimes 'Cause I've been running around this town Trying to make sense of me right now So I'm gonna steady my breath Balance the tears with the smiles No need to climb that fence When I could just walk right around You see, I took another look, I saw another side It’s been staring me in the face all the while But am I a woman You see, I forget sometimes 'Cause I've been running around in my life I think I got lost in my own fire And oh, I'm tired, I'm so tired So tell me... Am I? Am I? So won't you empty my pond so I could fill my ocean And touch me, feel me now Oh won't you touch me, feel me now And tell me, Am I? 'Cause I forget sometimes...
