We Never Even Kissed by Kathryn Cloward

I’m holding onto every word you said
Replaying memories in my head
I can never go back to how I used to be
Those moments with you changed me

Now I know what pure magic feels like
When time stops and everything aligns
There’s a calm force of intensity
With you laser-focused clarity

I cannot undo this
Leveled up awareness
Transformed absolute bliss
And we never even kissed
We never even kissed
No we never even kissed
But I wished I wished I wished
Oh I wished

You set the bar now nothing less
Will satisfy the thirst you quenched
To be alone is better for me
Than to settle for complacency

Now I know what pure magic feels like
When time stops and everything aligns
There’s a calm force of intensity
With you laser-focused clarity

I cannot undo this
Leveled up awareness
Transformed absolute bliss
And we never even kissed
We never even kissed
No we never even kissed
But I wished I wished I wished
Oh I wished

I’ll savor this feeling I know
You ignited the depths of my soul
Perhaps that’s all it’s to be
It’s enough to sustain me

Now I know what pure magic feels like
When time stops and everything aligns
There’s a calm force of intensity
With you laser-focused clarity

I cannot undo this
Leveled up awareness
Transformed absolute bliss
And we never even kissed
No I cannot undo this
Leveled up awareness
Transformed absolute bliss
And we never even kissed
We never even kissed
No we never even kissed

Copy of Enough is Enough

Earning a Global Music Award, “Enough is Enough” is a heartfelt call to action. There have been over 475 mass shootings in the USA in 2023 as of August. That number is expected to rise to well over 500 by year’s end. Kathryn Cloward was inspired to write “Enough is Enough” to shine a light of awareness on the need for sensible gun laws that are relevant to what is happening in society right now. “Enough is Enough” circles us back to the core of our humanity to focus on those at the heart of these senseless tragedies. Gun violence, especially at schools, is one of the most prevalent social issues impacting Americans right now. School shootings are not an issue of politics, race, gender, socioeconomics, or faith—they are an issue of humanity. “Enough is Enough” is an impactful song of great importance that activates us all to examine what matters most. Children and educators keep being killed at school. Mass shootings are still on the rise. Enough is enough.

Enough is Enough 

By Kathryn Cloward

What are we gonna do about these senseless tragedies
Too many children too soon wearing angel wings
Too many educators have laid down their lives
To protect their students while you protect your gun rights

They were daughters and sisters brothers and sons
They had dreams to fulfill that didn’t include being killed by guns
They were mothers and aunts uncles and dad
Too many have died aren’t you raging mad

What are we gonna do about these horrific tragedies
blame it on mental health but this doesn’t happen in other countries
Gun laws need reform this isn’t 1776
An assault rifle is not a musket

They were daughters and sisters brothers and sons
They had dreams to fulfill that didn’t include being killed by guns
They were mothers and aunts uncles and dad
Too many have died aren’t you raging mad

Enough is enough too many are gone
Enough is enough the status quo’s all wrong
Everyone is shuffling blame
But nothing nothing nothing has changed
Enough is enough too many have died
Enough is enough it’s time to do what’s right
Let’s not circle around this loop again
Let’s stop let’s stop killing our children
Enough is enough
Enough is enough
Enough is enough
Enough is enough

They were daughters and sisters brothers and sons
They had dreams to fulfill that didn’t include being killed by guns
They were mothers and aunts uncles and dad
Too many have died aren’t you raging mad

Enough is enough too many are gone
Enough is enough the status quo’s all wrong
Everyone is shuffling blame
But nothing nothing nothing has changed
Enough is enough too many have died
Enough is enough it’s time to do what’s right
Let’s not circle around this loop again
Let’s stop let’s stop killing our children
Enough is enough
Enough is enough
Enough is enough
Enough is enough

Lyrics & Credits

 

I Fell for You by Kathryn Cloward

I want what I want but I can’t have you
There’s a longing in me a twin soul refused
Every day we’re not aligned
I hope we’ll reunite

I fell for you
I fell for you
Knocking me off my feet
Changing my plans completely
Oh oh I
I fell for you
I fell for you

The stakes are high and my chips are low
A game of hearts with no hand to hold
A king and queen no bluff to make
Two aces of a spade

I fell for you
I fell for you
Knocking me off my feet
Changing my plans completely
Oh oh I
I fell for you
I fell for you

From the first moment I saw you
Elevated in a crowded room
Unexpectedly
Your light washed through me

I fell for you
I fell for you
Knocking me off my feet
Changing my plans completely
Oh oh I
I fell for you
I fell for you
Knocking me off my feet
Changing my plans completely
Oh oh I
I fell for you
I fell for you
I fell for you
I fell for you
I fell for you
I fell

A Decent Man by Kathryn Cloward

A decent man takes care of responsibilities
A decent man has honor and integrity
A decent man does the right thing
A decent man raised me

A decent man is accountable for his mistakes
A decent man will do whatever it takes
A decent man respects women equally
A decent man loves faithfully

Even when times are rough
Feeling like he’s had enough
A decent man will do his best to see
The silver lining of lessons learned through adversity

Oh a decent man (a decent man) decent man

A decent man is honest with his word
A decent man is patient as others are heard
A decent man volunteers his time
A decent man stands back and lets others shine

Even when times are rough
Feeling like he’s not good enough
A decent man will pray for God to please
Help him be the man he’s created to be

Oh a decent man (a decent man) decent man
Oh a decent man (a decent man) decent man

From the valleys to our earthly skies
May every decent man rise
And be courageous living passionately
With open-hearted love compassion and unity

Oh a decent man (a decent man) decent man
Oh a decent man (a decent man) decent man
Oh a decent man (a decent man) decent man

Loving You by Kathryn Cloward

We don’t need to rush we have plenty of time
You have things to handles and I’ve got mine
In the infinite space where love resides
When you seek me you’ll find

I’ll be loving you
I’ll be loving you
From the bottom of my pure heart’s truth
I’ll be loving you
I’ll be loving you
From the bottom of my pure heart’s truth
I’ll always be loving you

Miles between our separate lives
But a chord connects no dimensional divide
In the infinite space where love resides
When you seek me you’ll find

I’ll be loving you
I’ll be loving you
From the bottom of my pure heart’s truth
I’ll be loving you
I’ll be loving you
From the bottom of my pure heart’s truth
I’ll always be loving you

When all that’s real is the feeling inside
Trust in truth we’re love and light

I’ll be loving you
I’ll be loving you
From the bottom of my pure heart’s truth
I’ll be loving you
I’ll be loving you
From the bottom of my pure heart’s truth
I’ll always be loving you
From the bottom of my pure heart’s truth
I’ll always be loving you

Easy for You

Copy of Copy of The Healing Road

Lyrics & Credits

Easy for You by Kathryn Cloward

I’ve been having a hard time accepting what is true
But now I see clearly and your new address is proof
You tell me you still love me I know that’s your way
But actions hold truth beyond just the words we say

Was it easy for you
To let me go
Do you feel safe now
Back with what you know
Was I just a test
Medicine for your loneliness
Cured and renewed
Was it easy for you

We had one last day and oh it felt so right
But the wiggling fish is slippery in an unwinnable fight
Before me a net had been woven your safety with sharp hooks
Despite all you want me to believe it’s exactly how it looks

Was it easy for you
To let me go
Do you feel safe now
Back with what you know
Was I just a test
Medicine for your loneliness
Cured and renewed
Was it easy for you

No I don’t want to see you
It’s the healthier way to be
In time I will heal and move on
Even if it’s not easy for me

Was it easy for you
To let me go
Do you feel safe now
Back with what you know
Was I just a test
Medicine for your loneliness
Cured and renewed
Was it easy for you
Was it easy for you

Dorothy

Lyrics & Credits

Dorothy by Kathryn Cloward

La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la-la la la la la la la

I met an elderly woman named Dorothy
With rosy cheeks and hair set she was lovely
Scooting along in her wheelchair
Down hospital halls with a smile to share
And no matter what the day
She’d smile at me and say

La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la-la la la la la la la

Dorothy’s words were shuffled by her tongue
The vibrancy of a woman once young
A digest magazine carried close
Wishing for time with the ones she loved most
And she hasn’t drifted away
Connecting with others by these words she’d say

La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la-la la la la la la la

As a little girl I wondered what her life had been
And as a teenager I’d meet her again
Her words were slower in time
Years had stretched her once abundant mind
Oh Dorothy would soon pass away
When I feel her angel wings I smile and say

La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la-la la la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la-la la la la la la la

Ace of Spades

Copy of Copy of The Healing Road

Lyrics & Credits

Ace of Spades by Kathryn Cloward

You’re chasing demons and shutting me out
Blaming me for choices you couldn’t live without
You say you’re not lying it’s a mirage inside your mind
Smoking up screens from truth you don’t want me to find

Joker’s wild it’s a fool’s game
You thought you could play me just the same
And even with my queen of hearts
You bluffed me from the start
But I’m more powerful than the king you played
I’m the ace of spades

I questioned your cards then ignored for ten days
It was a clear tell alerting me to your ways
But I doubled down to remain in the game
Then I forced a fold when I got more of the same

Joker’s wild it’s a fool’s game
You thought you could play me just the same
Even with my queen of hearts
You bluffed me from the start
But I’m more powerful than the king you played
I’m the ace of spades

Diamonds clubs hearts and spades
All the games people play
Diamonds clubs hearts and spades
Cash it out and walk away

Joker’s wild it’s a fool’s game
You thought you could play me just the same
Even with my queen of hearts
You bluffed me from the start
But I’m more powerful than the king you played
I’m the ace of spades
I’m the ace of spades
I’m the ace of spades

Lyrics & Credits

Ripple Love by Kathryn Cloward

Walking around wounded so many in pain
Living within patterns of imprinting that remains

We can heal
We can shine
We can shift
We can unify

We’re all in this together connected divinely
The light shining within you shines within me
We all have a choice in every moment we breathe
Let’s choose to ripple love let peace be our energy

Shifting our perception expect miracles of change
We may all look different but our hearts beat the same

We can heal
We can shine
We can shift
We can unify

We’re all in this together connected divinely
The light shining within you shines within me
We all have a choice in every moment we breathe
Let’s choose to ripple love let peace be our energy

It only takes one of us for a movement to begin
Our ripple effect starts from within

We’re all in this together connected divinely
The light shining within you shines within me
We’re all in this together connected divinely
The light shining within you shines within me
We all have a choice in every moment we breathe
Let’s choose to ripple love let peace be our energy
Healing shining shifting unifying 
Healing shining shifting unifying

Feminine Divine

Lyrics & Credits

Feminine Divine by Kathryn Cloward

I have no regrets about this life I’ve lived
I’ve taken chances and loved big
I’ve been hurt, cheated, and lied about
But none of that held me down
I had many lessons to learn
And some karma came around

It is time to realign with feminine divine
It is time to declare no more unfair
It is time for balancing scales Universal Law never fails
Oh let’s rise rise rise and shine feminine divine
Yes it’s time to rise and shine feminine divine divine
Oh let’s rise rise rise and shine feminine divine

They’ve been leading and bullying with fear
Charismatic manipulation for years
Oh they only serve to control
Yet we know deep within our souls
That love love love’s the only way
To cast out darkness dawning a new day

It is time to realign with feminine divine
It is time to declare no more unfair
It is time for balancing scales Universal Law never fails
Oh let’s rise rise rise and shine feminine divine
Yes it’s time to rise and shine feminine divine divine
Oh let’s rise rise rise and shine feminine divine

Equalizing our duality
Masculine and feminine energy
Vibrations harmonize
We are one
Together we rise rise rise

It is time to realign with feminine divine
It is time to declare no more unfair
It is time for balancing scales Universal Law never fails
Oh let’s rise rise rise and shine feminine divine
Yes it’s time to rise and shine feminine divine divine
Oh let’s rise rise rise and shine feminine divine
Oh let’s rise rise rise and shine feminine divine
