Down I Go
Raylee Bradfield 2010

I’ve always been one for a really good mystery
But when it comes to you and I all I want is some clarity
Cause all the late night calls and the sideways looks are haunting me
And I get a sinking feeling that disasters creepin’ up on me
Down I go
I’m looking for a sign that you still wanna be with me
I’ve lost that reassurance that there’s only me
In your mind, in your heart, can you tell me, tell me please
Cause I get a sinking feeling that disasters creepin’ up on me
Down I go
Down I go
You’ve got me spinning on a dime and I can’t stay
Another minute in this mess, this mess we’ve made
It’s simple really it is yes, yes or no, stay or go
I’m going down
There was a time when I could read your mind
I knew your every word, I could recite your every line
But these days I can’t read your face, maybe I’m going blind
But I have a sinking feeling you’re no longer mine
Down I go Down I go
One more minute and I’m dead for sure
Don’t leave me hanging on this ledge no more
Please let me in on the changing score
I’m going down I’m going down

Lonely No More
Raylee Bradfield 2012

I’ve been hoping you’d find me
Under this big old tree
Cause I’ve been running for so long
And I’m tired from all that I’ve seen
I’m tired from all that I’ve seen
I’m tired from all that I’ve seen

Take me somewhere I can finally sleep
In a dreamless peaceful night
Cause my eyes are heavy from staying awake
To fight off the ghosts in my mind
I’m fighting the ghosts in my mind
I’m fighting the ghosts in my mind
Take now my hand, clasp it with yours
Hold me forevermore
Cause I never knew love til I saw your face
And now I know I’ll be lonely no more
I’ll be lonely no more
I’ll be lonely no more
Take me down to the riverside
And wash all my fears away
And take this heart you can have it Lord
It is yours today
Take me down to the riverside
And wash all my fears away
And take this heart you can have it Lord
It yours today,

Peace
Raylee Bradfield 2018

I met a man from a faraway land
Where the ground has given up waiting on rain
The children go hungry while their mothers pray silently
This is the world that he sees everyday
Though his eyes held no storm
He smiled at me with the warmth of the sun
Like he owned everything
He had peace down in his soul
He had peace down in his soul
We stood at the ocean that he saw for the first time
Oh it was a sight to see
Just like a child he swayed side to side
Singing, “Glory, Glory!”
He had peace down in his soul
He had peace down in his soul
So wide no storm could blow it over
So deep no grief could swallow it whole
So high it goes all the way to heaven
He’s got peace
He told me his stories of loss and goodbyes
Of a sorrow not easily erased
But there was no thunder in the tone of his voice
No anger held in his face
Just a gentle sound like an old melody
That my heart had been waiting to hear
So I leaned in to that song that he sung
And it carried off all of my fears
He’s got peace down in his soul
He’s got peace

Sold On You
Raylee Bradfield 2007

I’m so in love, so in love with your dear
All of the mysteries it’s perfectly clear
That when I’m old, it’s you that I’ll hold
So dear
When I am gone you will be gone too
Packed in my suitcase under my shoes
There’s no denying undeniable truth
You see I’m sold on you baby
Sold on you
If the sun don’t shine
But I know you’re mine
I will go on with a smile on my face
You can’t erase this
Love that I feel when I’m in your embrace
Oh darlin’ it’s true
There is only, only you
And even if life comes a little undone
And I’m wondering whatever is to come
I won’t be afraid, with you I’ve got it made
No cloud up in the sky with you by my side
Only love only love only love
Only love only love only love

Why Do You Find Me
Raylee Bradfield 2009

I pulled you up, I let you out, said goodbye to you
Tried so hard not to delay in getting my point through
I tried to leave, don’t want to stay with you around my neck
But the more I try the more I fail at telling you to get
I have loved you for so long
But I can’t find one reason why I should stay
But you keep me hanging on
Why do you find me, why do you find me
Why do you find me once again
Just like a drug you pull me in and tell me it’s okay
And just when I give in to you I’m trapped without delay
I try to leave, don’t wanna stay with you around my neck
But the more I try the more I fail at telling you to get
Why do you find me
Why do you find me
Why do you find me once again

Give me the Answer
Raylee Bradfield 2010

A woman with a crooked heart cried on her bed
Why do I love the night so?
I wanna be free but my heart won’t let me be
So I’m left here out in the cold
I tried long ago to deny my intent but wherever I’d go
That’s where it went
You can try waking up somewhere new if you want
But you’ll always wake up with yourself
Give me the answer that I’ve been searching for
I’ve been down and I need some more time to find
What I’ve been looking for
This is my lucky coin he said to his friend, “You wait, I’m gonna win tonight”
And as he puts his last dollar into the machine, he wipes his forehead dry
“Winning streak, winning streak, one more time,
‘cause it’s my family’s life on the line,
If you’ll let me just borrow a little more time, I’ll be home tonight”
You don’t have to tell me I’ve got it all wrong
Cause that’s the most rehearsed line in this bitter song
Can you give me something I can use to get along, get along

Wounded Heart
Raylee Bradfield 2016

There’s not enough roads to drive these blues away
Not enough magic to numb the vacancy
No amount of laughter can drown out all these cries
Cause this amount of madness cannot be disguised
When you’ve got a wounded heart
When you’ve got a wounded heart
Faraway looks and a wandering eye
Searching for an exit to be rid of all these lies
Just a moments relief from the endless replay
Of things you can’t change and things you can’t say
When you’ve got a wounded heart
When you’ve got a wounded heart
When everything you had has fallen apart
When everything you dreamt got lost in the dark
When you finally get what you’ve always wanted to find out you were wrong

New Sky
Raylee Bradfield 2018

There’s a new sky rising
There’s a new sky rising
There’s a new sky rising over my head
I’m gonna run, run run toward the sun
Little one can you see
We’re gonna go high
Little one can you see
We’re gonna go high
We’re gonna run run run
We’re gonna run run run
We’re gonna run run run
Toward the sun
Toward the sun
Toward the sun

Love You So
Raylee Bradfield 2009

If you’re gonna leave me here
If you’re gonna steal my heart
If you’re gonna play in my head you better know
I love you so, I love you so
If you wanna take me away
Somewhere warm night and day
If you wanna to tell me all your secrets
You’ve told nobody else
You better know
I love you so, I love you so
Why do I let you keep me on a string
When I think that you are my everything
So please don’t play with my heart
Cause I love you so
Love you so
If you wanna buy me a ring
Or a bird that can sing
If you wanna take me to the stars
And find the bullet in my heart
You better know that I love you so
I love you so, I love you so
