"Some People Fall, Some People Fly" by Alecia Elliott (Matraca Berg/Randy Scruggs)

1st Verse

It was a long hard road
It was all up hill
We nearly lost our way
We nearly lost our will
So we clung to the rocks
Oh, where the cold winds blow
'Til love gave us strength to finally let go

Chorus

(Well) we climbed that mountain
And we got so high
Then on the wings of an angel
We took to the sky
Out here on the edge
Love dared (dares) us to try
Baby, some people fall, but some people fly

2nd Verse

Many they fall
For passion's kiss
And many they say
Is this all there is?
Well, it never was easy
To rise above
To look into the eyes of love

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

And baby, love has no fear
Leap, and a net will appear

(Repeat Chorus)

Some people fly

  "I Don't Understand" by Alecia Elliott (Stephanie Bentley/Adrienne Follese/Keith Follese)

1st Verse

There's a little girl livin' on the street
I don't understand
Turnin' tricks to get some food to eat
I don't understand
There's a mama prayin' to God to bring her baby back
I don't understand
I don't understand

2nd Verse

There's a crack house down across the tracks
I don't understand
People tradin' smoke for cold hard cash
I don't understand
There's just no way this could be part of the greater plan
I don't understand
I don't understand

Chorus

Is everybody livin' in a world without windows
Am I the only one who sees
If this is all that's left of what was once the promised land, oh
I just can't comprehend it
I just don't understand

3rd Verse

There's a daddy walkin' out the door
I don't understand
Leavin' three kids who need him more
Than he understands
These days the trouble starts right where the family ends
I don't understand
I don't understand

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus)

I don't understand
I don't understand
I don't understand



"Ain't No Ordinary Love" by Alecia Elliott (Tommy Lee James/Robin Lerner)

1st Verse

We have somethin' I could never do without
What a brilliant stroke of luck
Heaven's angels came like sirens in the night
Madness hit me like a truck

One look, one touch
And the skies just opened up
Ain't no ordinary love
Lightning, thunder
And the fateful arrow struck
Ain't no ordinary love

Happiness has got me jumpin' up for joy
Sweet bliss, I'm overcome
Didn't notice I've been walking on thin air
Somehow closer to the sun

Bridge

Such a sweet, beautiful thing
A complete awakening
Inspiration everlasting

2nd Chorus

Stand back, hold on
They don't make 'em quite like us
Ain't no ordinary love
Lightning, thunder
And the skies just opened up
Ain't no ordinary love
One look, one touch
And the fateful arrow stuck
Ain't no ordinary love

Tag

It's extraordinary
It ain't no ordinary love

Ain't no ordinary love

"Every Heart" by Alecia Elliott (Michele McCord/Mark D. Sanders/Sharon Vaughn)

Chorus

Every heart has to hurt some time
Every lover knows who's ever been left behind
Every time you told me
Every time I believed
It would never be mine
I was just standin' in line
Every heart has to hurt some time

I've always been on the other side of goodbye
Handin' out answers to someone else's why
Baby, don't wait for me to ask you not to go
Way down inside I know
Now I know

I guess it finally got around to bein' me
Nothin' you do or say
Is gonna make it easy

Can't eat, can't sleep
All I do is think about you

Hold on, what's this feelin'
That's my heart you're stealin'
That's okay, my baby, I don't want it back
What's this chemistry, such intensity
And good emotions gettin' through

(Oh, yeah) It's your sweet love, I'm feelin' it
Can't get enough, go figure it
Madly, deeply, baby I'm fallin'
Head over heels, I'm livin' it

I'm thinkin' that
I'm diggin' it

2nd Verse

Come on, keep it comin'
Think you're on to somethin'
So strong, so right, it's got to be real
You're breakin' down the walls and fences
There's a powerful sense (of)
Good emotions gettin' through

I'm diggin' it



"That's The Only Way" by Alecia Elliott (Cathy Majeski/Sunny Russ/Stephony Smith)

1st Verse

I could stay here in this moment
Let tomorrow go
You could ask me if I love you
I could tell you I don't know
If I dance around the truth with you
It would only be a lie
'Cause all I really wanna do
Is love you 'til the day I die

Chorus

Whole heartedly
Every part of me
All or nothin'
Nothin' else will do
Touching heart and soul
Never letting go
Baby, that's the only way
To love you

2nd Verse

I'm gonna give you honesty
And that's what you deserve
A promise to believe in
You can count on every word
Faithful and forgiving
That's how I wanna be
It's gonna be so easy
'Cause baby that's the way you love me

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

Touching heart and soul
Never letting go
Baby, that's the only way

(Repeat Chorus)

To love you



"You Wanna What?" by Alecia Elliott (Alecia Elliott/Andy Bohatiuk/Bill Terry)

1st Verse

Some guys, ooh, they're really something
They're always acting like they're so hot
And you, you don't seem any different
I keep a wishin' but I guess you're not

You wanna what? I don't think so
I don't waste my time on guys like that
You might be tough
But that's not enough to make it last
You wanna what?

2nd Verse

Those eyes, ooh, I see right through 'em
The way you stare gives you away
Don't even go there, ooh, you just don't get it
Real love can't be that way

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

Ooh, don't you think you oughta be ashamed
Ooh, I hate to tell you I don't play that game

(Chorus Out)
