Lyrics:
I wake up in the night terrified
I don’t want to die before my time
I’m scared when the storm clouds boil
When it rains to wash away the soil
Oh what will become of me
In the river of life I'm just a leaf
What will become of me
Soon I’ll be turning golden
To my creator I am beholden
And what will become of the bees
When the flowers are laced with poison
And what will become of the babes
When the milk is laced with poison
And what will become of me
When my flesh is laced with poison
What will become of me
In the river of life I'm just a leaf
And soon I'll be turning golden
To my creator I am beholden
A river’s wave foams on the shore
I plant my roots forevermore
A handmade home carved of wood and stone
Where children’s children can roam
Hunting berries out on the loam
Where children's children's children's children's children's children can roam...

We're crying for Gaia
We're dying for Gaia
We're just surviving on Gaia
We could be thriving on Gaia
I am Gaia
You are Gaia
We're gaia

I.
Home to Myself
I’m coming home
Home to myself
All along was it wrong
When I ran so fast and so long
To wind up here
II.
All of my life
So much strife
All of my life
But it’s over now
I can feel the ground
And I can feel the sound
And the air all around
Holding me
III.
Oh my love
I send a white dove
I only want peace
Indefinitely
I’ll fight til you see
Won’t rest til we’re free
Oh can’t you see
We want the same
IV.
Everyone
Frightening me
I don’t like anyone
Keep away from me
I have no energy
Way down deep
My heart’s been asleep
Awaken now!

Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
Every time I show up as myself
Things go well
When I'm fighting hiding striving
That is my own hell
I just want to be loving with all of my heart
If I knew the way then I would surely start
To love you
Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
Every day's a maze I wake to with a start
I am walking the labyrinth back to my heart
If I could I'd always hold you underneath the stars
Focusing on breathing until we remember who we are
Then I'll love you
Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
Heaven is here in the sunset everyday
Heaven is here in the breaking of each wave
Heaven is here when I'm sharing everything
Heaven is here when I open up and sing
Heaven is here when I look into your eyes
And there are no more walls just the spark of life
I learn to love you
Over and over
I learn to love you
Over and over
Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
Over and over and over
I learn to love you over and over and over
I am love
You are love

F L O U R I S H
by C O R A F L O R A
The sounds of this album echo, swirl, and reverberate in my body. I feel drunk on the ocean's thrum, a bee's decadent hum, a flower's nectar and hue. It truly is a tool to blossom by.
