Hollywood Moon
words and music by Wes Hamil

You know the streets of this City- They’re all littered with schemes
Busted up just like bottles- and polished by dreams
They sparkle like diamonds- wish on them like stars
May you get what you wish for-your wishes go far
Dream all you want to- Just don’t ever assume
That the stars in your eyes are as real- as that Hollywood Moon

You just have to wonder- what it’s doing to you
It’ll make you half-crazy- What else would you do
Except keep on dreaming- though you’ll never assume
That the stars in your eyes are as real- as that Hollywood Moon

They sparkle like diamonds- wish on them like stars
May you get what you wish for-your wishes go far
Dream all you want to- Just don’t ever assume
That the stars in your eyes are as real- as that Hollywood Moon

No Gravity
words and music by Wes Hamil

There is no gravity- we all just fall through space at different speeds
There is no destiny- we all just drift along from need to need
There is a Spirit underneath it all- it gives us wings whenever we all fall
Into the Mystery- There is no Gravity

No coincidence- only rendezvous with incidence
Your Inheritance- that’s learning choices they’re not accidents
Finding Faith in something we can’t see- That’s the price we pay for falling free-There is no Gravity

There must be a reason why- we’re still here when we could fly
There must be something more to give- a little bigger way to live
A clearer way to see- There is no Gravity

We all just fall through space, We all just fall through space
We all just fall through space, we all just fall
There is no Gravity, There is no Gravity
There is no Gravity- We all just fall through space at different speeds

We Just Go On
words And music by Wes Hamil

Our history- It only comes from dreaming of the past
Why don't we see, we never change what wasn't meant to last
The rights and wrongs- just last so long
We can't go back- We just go on

It's clear to see- the journey's never where the story ends
And Destiny- lives in those shadows where the rainbow bends
We'll play along - Both weak and strong
We can't go back- We just go on

We can't go back to places we don't know
Before we're there, it seems we're asked to go
Take it on faith, and let it go, let it go, let it all go…..

The Mystery- will answer all the questions we don't ask
There we will be- remembering the future with the past
We hear the song - Where we belong
We can't go back- we just go on

May You Find Love
words and music by Wes Hamil

May you find light within the darkness- a little hope within despair
Vision through the blindness of this fear that’s everywhere
Meaning in the journey every life is made out of
May You Find Love

May your Spirit meet no stranger- may your passion keep it’s fire
May you always take the chances- that your dreams they will require
May you heal when you get broken with no bitterness or grudge
May You Find Love

A love that heals your loneliness, a love that keeps you strong
A love that brings compassion when the suffering grows long
May your Soul receive the blessing that your heart’s been dreaming of
May You Find Love

All the desperation all the loneliness and pain we carry in our heart
it blinds us to the truth
We were born to be among the loving and the love, to carry promise and
some hope into this life we’re walking through
In this life you’re walking through

May you find love that heals your loneliness, a love that keeps you strong
A love that brings compassion when the suffering grows long
May your Soul receive the blessing that your heart’s been dreaming of
May You Find Love
May your Soul receive the blessing that your heart’s been dreaming of
May You Find Love

The Best Deal For Me
words and music by Wes Hamil

Shadows and Darkness are places we hide
The secrets we keep they’re how fools pay for pride
The past has a shadow that’s longer each day
The future is setting and headed our way
They say in the end you get what you believe
Believing in you’s been the best deal for me

Now passion’s a notion that comes from the lie
That feelings will give you what truth cannot buy
Love it’s the ashes left after that fire
That heals feeds you and heals all the wounds of desire
They say in the end you get what you believe
Believing in you’s been the best deal for me

Believing in you when all I had was doubt
Believing in you when my hope had run out
Knowing I’ve held you as close as each breath
Believing in you- it’s all I got left

They say in the end you get what you believe
Believing in you’s been the best deal for me
Believing in you’s been the best deal for me

Shadow On Your Heart
words and music by Wes Hamil

Everybody seems to understand- times are hard and it’s all out of hand
Lot’s of folks they learn to recognize- how to spot that pain in someone’s eyes
But it seems that it’s become a dying art- to see when there’s a shadow on your heart

All around the world is full of noise- we’re blinded by the light from shiny toys
You can spend your life fixing to start- and never see that shadow on your heart

Maybe it was put there long ago- left behind by ones who didn’t know
the best that they could do tore you apart- and left you with a shadow on your heart

Nothing in your heart that you can’t mend- once you tell the truth and don’t pretend
Cause the wait you’re carrying is real- and you can’t dream because of what you feel
So there ain’t no better time for us to start- to chase away those shadows on your heart
No there ain’t no better time for us to start- to chase away those shadows on your heart

Broken Angels
Words and music by Wes Hamil

I went up to heaven- I took a look around
Searching for perfection- tell you what I found
Everywhere I looked- in everyone I saw
Broken Angels, Broken Angels, Broken Angels.

So I went to the tavern- to see who I could find
I was searching for companions to help me through this time
Everywhere I looked- in everyone I saw
Broken Angels, Broken Angels, Broken Angels.

Everybody learns to fall apart, feathers fray
The wings they weaken, halos fade
On Broken Angels.

So I looked in the mirror- to see who I could see
Saw my own reflection- just staring back at me
Looked me in the eyes- and I learned how to forgive
Broken Angels, Broken Angels, Broken Angels

You look Life in the eyes- you gotta learn how to forgive
Broken Angels, Broken Angels, Broken Angels
You look Life in the eyes- you gotta learn how to forgive

Sacrifice
words and music by Wes Hamil

You give in easy, or surrender by degrees
That's how it goes, getting through this life
Find a Lover and a dream or two to hold and pretty soon
The years go rolling by
Everybody pays a price
It's only human to think twice
About Sacrifice, We will sacrifice, We all Sacrifice

You take some chances and you end up getting burned
So you play it safe, and feel your heart grow cold
Start asking questions of your heart until that spark returns
Burning in your soul
Yeah the fire sure feels nice
But the fire, well it brings a price

We will Sacrifice, We all Sacrifice, yeah we Sacrifice

There's a price to pay for really letting go
There's a price to pay for holding on
There’s a price to pay for what you think you know
There's a price to pay for love

We will Sacrifice, We all Sacrifice, yeah we Sacrifice

Everybody pays a price
It's only human to think twice

About Sacrifice, We will sacrifice, We all Sacrifice

Me and Juan Diego
words and music by Wes Hamil

Me and Juan Diego, headed out for desert sand
Where nothing ever seems to grow, that's where we make our stand
We plant ourselves some roses, grow them beautiful and tall
Plant our faith, make our stand, and wait for the Virgin to call

When I met Juan Diego, he was running from the man
He said that he'd forgotten who he was or who he'd been
He said you can get broken down so deep your heart can't feel
So we lit out for Mexico to find a way to heal

We made it cross the border, under full moonlight
The shadow of Saguaro stood like sentries in the night
We wandered until wandering it made no sense at all
To look for a beginning, and wait for the Virgin to call

Virgin to call, and Bless us with her tears
The Virgin she'll call, with Hope for these hard years
The Virgin she will carry us although we often fall
We plant our faith, make our stand, and wait for the Virgin to call

We planted us some roses, we waited weeks on end
We told each other truth and lies, we'd dream and we'd pretend
We promised when those roses grew we'd have a story we could tell
Somewhere in that story maybe find our hearts as well

It happened on a Sunday, though I could be wrong
The Virgin she appeared as he was waiting on the dawn
I saw it from a distance, she offered him a rose
I watched his Spirit rising as he touched her soft blue robe

The Virgin never said a word, the sun began to rise
The fire of forgiveness was the color of her eyes
It's easy to take chances once you know you've lost it all
All it takes, is all you got, to wait for the Virgin to call

Virgin to call, and Bless us with her tears
The Virgin she'll call, with Hope for these hard years
The Virgin she will carry us although we often fall
We plant our faith, make our stand, and wait for the Virgin to call

If your Spirit's broken, your heart's like desert sand
Where nothing ever seems to grow, that's where you make your stand
Plant yourself some roses there, grow them beautiful and tall
Plant your Faith, make your stand, and wait for the Virgin to call

Virgin to call, and Bless us with her tears
The Virgin she'll call, with Hope for these hard years
The Virgin she will carry us although we often fall
We plant our faith, make our stand, and wait for the Virgin to call
So plant your faith, make your stand, and wait for the Virgin to call

The Only Thing Left
words and music by Wes Hamil


The good hearts get broken along with the bad
The happiness don't always equal the sad
Your trials and your struggles don't guarantee child
You'll get what you think you deserve from this life

Only one thing is certain, and one thing is true
The road to redemption, it runs right through you
So keep your heart open, when push comes to shove
Cause the only thing left that can save us is love

It may be love of another, or a love you can't trace
Like the love of the hope of the promise of grace
It may be love of a Spirit you pray to above
The only thing left that can save us is love

I thought as a child and I once believed
That love was just passion and love was carefree
But love it brings sacrifice, love it brings pain
That's the price that you pay, for the soul that you gain

So keep your heart open when push comes to shove
Cause the only thing left that can save us is love
The only thing love ever gives us is love
The only thing left that can save us is love.
