For You Alone (LYRICS) The only sin / I could commit against you Might be to want you More than you might want me to For when we met I was just a passerby But now you have me Turning water into wine CHORUS: The stars up in the sky like the twinkle in your eye Are telling me just how much I have grown That's how I realize that without you I would die. Let the heavens open wide for you alone Deep in your heart I know that there is room for two And I am honored That I share that space with you And if you swear to spend all of this life with me Then I will love you For all of eternity [CHORUS] BRIDGE: If true love consists of growing There is none truer than ours And this love will keep on growing Well beyond any known chart [CHORUS breakdown] Let the heavens open wide for you alone (x4) ©2012/2022 Laurier Tiernan

Twin Flames 02:53
Twin Flames Twin flames are born in darkness But they / come from the light and Twin flames can not be harnessed Because they / burn as they fly and CHORUS: Everyone has someone for whom There is nothing they won’t do Every flame has its twin flame Like I belong to you Twin flames all love to travel And they / will leave a trail and Twin flames can not be stopped Because they / can never fail and [CHORUS] There are some things that you can not measure Like when your lover asks how much you care But you know that you would feel their absence As sharply / as the absence of air Twin flames came here together And they / have come so far Twin flames will share a mission And then go / back to the stars [CHORUS] + Like I belong to you (x2) ©2014/2022 Laurier Tiernan

A Special Kind of Tragedy Roses are beautiful Everybody wants one As a symbol Of their lovers love and what it cost them Flowers never can appreciate their own beauty Therein lies a special kind of tragedy You are so beautiful Everybody wants you As a symbol Of the love of G-d For which they need proof and Flowers never can appreciate their own beauty Therein lies a special kind of tragedy Most people have it when they are young But most of them are all too busy having fun A battle fought but never won Echoed every day in the setting sun [CHORUS] x 2 © 2009/2022 Laurier Tiernan

Stand 04:00
Stand (LYRICS) Many lifetimes have gone by Many times you've laughed and cried You died and were reborn many times And for all the world to see You now have a set of keys That could set every last human free You just have to give the word / and the future will unfurl. Chorus: Stand on a star, and see how life looks from afar. Stand on a star, and realize who you are. Since you have come from the source It is a matter of course That you hold its power in your hands Pry apart the mystery so everyone can believe That we create all that we can see Some will pretend to be blind / but they will wake up in time. [CHORUS] Usher in a time of peace And Conflict will disappear The most certain way to teach Is to stand up and lead. [CHORUS] x3 Realize who you are (x2) © 2011/2022 Laurier Tiernan

Time 03:06
Time Few of us will dare to go the distance Most of us would rather stand in line Most of us would rather pay with boredom Rather than risk minutes of lost time But I am here to tell you that time is never lost It is always counted up Through summer sweat and winter frost Chose your destination. Marry it within your heart. Follow it around the world 'Til death will do you part Men have fought too many wars For temporary gain Knowing that their souls would come to Feel empty again I have come upon you now to highjack history If you want to save the world Pick up your dreams and follow me 'cause [CHORUS] [REINTRO - INSTRUMENTAL] [CHORUS] x 2 © 2009/2022 Laurier Tiernan

Temps de fête Chaque jour est un temps de fête Chaque matin est une chanson (et) Tout le monde connaît les paroles Chantons tous en unisson Vies-tu vraiment la vie de tes rêves? Le cheminement peut être vite fait Portes-toi comme si tu y étais Et tu ne vivras que le succès Chaque jour est ce qu'on en fait Tout se passe comme on le veut Le ciel entend toutes nos prières Et agit selon tous nos voeux Toutes tes erreurs sont pardonnées Tiens-toi droit debout sur tes deux pieds Laisse ton visage se faire ensoleiller Tu auras une très belle destinée © 2011/2022 Laurier Tiernan [Un single du duo Nature Airliner] [Extrait de l’album Cardinal.] http://www.natureairliner.com http://www.facebook.com/natureairliner http://www.instagram.com/nature_airliner

Way Up There 02:32
Way Up There (LYRICS) If you can imagine it then hold on to your seat. Everything you keep in mind will show up at your feet. {Be careful to choose / what you let your thoughts stray to.} Some people let destiny or chance become their voice. I will never settle for less than a conscious choice. {It is clear to me / that I am choosing to be.} WAY UP THERE. Like flower in the breeze. WAY UP THERE. For all the world to see. WAY UP THERE. Some say it's destiny But we will always be way up there. From a higher vantage point you can see much more. And you will never lose sight of what your life is for. {Changing point of view / allows you to never lose.} [CHORUS] Happiness is often just a matter of perspective. Raise your consciousness and you will find yourself... [CHORUS] Laurier: Some people let destiny or chance become their voice. [Eiko: WAY UP THERE] I will never settle for less than a conscious choice. [Eiko: WAY UP THERE] Laurier: From a higher vantage point, you can see much more. Unison: And we will always be… Eiko: way up there. © 2011/2022 Laurier Tiernan

Potential 03:46
Potential This world cheats itself of possibilities It may all depend on those like you and me We are not afraid to follow our guts We are not content to keep our windows shut If you do not take control, somebody else will. This may be the difference between good and evil CHORUS: I have potential that you cannot see. Put your hand in my hand, and tell me what you feel. (x2) Tell me what you feel. Do you remember the voice That you only heard as a child. Remember the voice that you heard When there was no one else in sight. If you do not take control, somebody else will. This may be the difference between good and evil BRIDGE: I am here to connect you To everything you could be To the world that you can see In your most beautiful dreams Chorus (x2) © 2009/2022 Laurier Tiernan

(You Will) Die as You Have Lived You’re planning the end According to an ancient script. Why are you in such a hurry to die? Your slaughters go unchecked by any foreign power No matter how many mothers cry. It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle Than for a rich man to pass through heaven’s gates. How long will you wait to share your life preserver? Or, will you hang on until it is too late? You’re building your empire Up into a tower. When you kneel, I don’t know to whom you pray, Because if it’s the one that I am thinking of, When you die you will go the other way. [CHORUS] You say that you need To fight fire with fire But how much did it cost Gandhi To hold a hunger strike? How much money did a desert prophet have saved up When he sealed his manifesto with his life? [CHORUS] Pop stars The Pope The President And me © 2008/2022 Laurier Tiernan

Letting Go 03:19
*Letting Go* I’ve come too far to turn back now I've come too far to just give up And when I’m feeling empty An angel always fills my cup Then my blood reveals a rose On the path to fame lined with bones And the only road to growth is letting go I had to stretch myself so far I felt my skin become so thin And even when I felt it break I never wanted to give in For the few times I changed course Were the only ones where I lost hope And the only road to growth is letting go I’m questioning all that I think I know And paling in comparison to gold I’m losing my resistance to the cold And there's a feeling in my soul When I start to lose sight of my goals That the only road to growth Is letting go © 2015/2022 Laurier Tiernan
