If Seeing is Believing
Words and Music by
John Hart and David Candia
If seeing is believing
When I saw you coming
I believe you were
The finest thing
That ever walked my way
The moment you
Came into view
I sacrificed my life for you
Yesterday’s arrangements
They have changed
Forever, they have changed
She’s so fine
I stumbled on a diamond mine
Rich resources spread before us
She’s so hot
She’s a pistol and
I’ve been shot
Point blank
Straight through the heart
I’m on fire
Let me stand next
To her desire
She’s so cool
She defines the golden rule
Do unto you
What you want me to
She fuels my needs
I’m locked on to her frequency
No mixed signals
No false intent
I’m on fire
Let me stand next
To her desire
If I had to choose
Between the two
Fame and fortune or
A life with you
Look into my eyes and see
Your own reflection
Your reflection, yeah
Oh baby

Get Into Your Heart
Words and Music by
John Hart
You’ve got questions
I’ve got answers
To the fundamentals Issues in life
You can trust me
I’ve no agenda
Don’t want your vote
Won’t steal your wife
If you’ve got something to say
You’d better say it now
‘Cause the end of things is surely in sight
We got fundamentalists in the West
Fundamentalists to the East
And both would like to punch out your lights
True Conscientiousness
Right Thinking
Are the doorways to a simple life
True Compassion
For all things living
Is the counterpoint to unending strife
If you know a better way
You’d better make it known
We’re reaping everything we’ve ever sown
We have a planet in distress
Her resources overstretched
And countries that can’t afford to care
And while none of this is new
You may be wondering what to do
Why wouldn’t you?
You can try to use your mind
Solve a problem at a time
That’s up to you
The truth of it is this
An irrational abyss
Divides two points of view
And while all of this is true
You may be wondering what to do
Why wouldn’t you?
The best that we can do
Is to intend the light
And to yourself be true
The reality is this
There’s an emotional abyss
Between two points of view
Chorus
You’ve got to feel
Get real
Get out of your head
Get into your heart
You’ve got to feel
Get real
Get out of your head
Get into your heart
And maybe, just maybe
You’ll be a beacon of light
In a very dark world
You’ve got to feel
Get real
Get out of your head
Get into your heart
You can’t resist
The appeal
Open your heart
Help this world start to heal

It is Here It is Now
Words and Music by
John Hart
We can believe anything we want to
Saints and Sinners always do
Wait for Paradise
Miss the world around you
Eden hidden from our view
We can believe anything we’re told to
Belief is never burdened by proof
We came into this world
Not as true believers
But, children unafraid of truth
Thinking in the past
Binds us to the mast
Of a ship with no course, or a crew
Buried in the sand
Down with all her hands
All the gold, all the silver lost too
Sail on true hearts
True hearts stay true
It is here
It is here
It is now
The good news has arrived
There’s nothing to decide
To split up or divide
No kingdom yet to come
No one at the gates
No points we have to make
Our destiny awaits
Open up those gates
We’re coming through!
We can believe anything we want to
Saints and Sinners always do
So
Why don’t we choose the life authentic
Nothing less will ever do
We are born nature’s sons and daughters
In nakedness we make our debut
Innocents abroad
Hearts and minds wide open
Eden spread before our view
We can travel down the road to freedom
Freedom is a choice we make
Innocents no more
Choose the life authentic
Beliefs are checked in at the gate
Looking through a glass
Colored by our past
Out to sea on a course
We once drew
Aboard a tiny craft
Tossed by waves and wind
All our hopes
All our dreams
We may lose
Sail on true hearts
True hearts stay true
It is here
It is here
It is now

No One Holds the Key
Words and Music by
John Hart
You’re on the road
And you meet a girl
She flashes a smile
And it shatters your world
You feel the ground shift
Under your feet
You kiss the sky
Life is tasting so sweet
One tiny spark
Hits the heart
Your eyes reflect the change
Nothing you can name
Will ever be the same again
You’re on the road
But you can’t relax
You’ve got to find her
If it breaks your back
She’s as elusive
As perfection in art
Systematically
She can take you apart
Love so profound
Knocks you to the ground
The darkness slips away
Suddenly it seems you’re
Standing in the light again
You hope to see her
Somewhere out in the crowd
But the lights are too bright
And the music’s too loud
You catch a glimpse
Of your heart’s desire
She’s a naked metaphor
For a soul on fire
One tiny spark
Hits the heart
Your eyes reflect the change
Nothing you can name
Will ever be the same again
Now I know
No one has the key
To unlock the mystery
The wonder that is you and me
So we might as well
Fall in love

Big Shot Boogie
Words and Music by
John Hart
You got great big plans
The whole world’s your stage
You got great big plans
The whole world’s your stage
You pull the strings from your luxury
yacht
Where you cooked up this sordid plot
You bet on our mortgage to flop
Mean sachs gold man
You get a big payday
A big bonus too
You get a huge payday
A huge bonus too
You got the world to invest in your
schemes
You are rich beyond all of your
dreams
You bet on your greed to succeed
Mean sachs gold man
Trickle up
Trickle down
Stash the cash
[1] Skip town
[2] Blow this town
Cast off
Head South
Pay off
All you cats involved
Cover your tracks on the money trail
Never spend a night in jail
And if your plot should ever fail
Never spend a night in jail
Never spend a night in jail
Never spend a night in jail
Go big shot get it while you’re hot
Go big shot get it while you’re hot
Nothing recedes like success
Nothing repels like excess
Go big Shot…

I’m In Love
Words and Music by
John Hart
I’m in love
I won’t deny it
I’ve done everything I can
To defy it
This kind of love
Is like a fire
It consumes you
Like the flames of desire
This kind of love
Will set you free
From a life of fear
Uncertainty
From a life of hope
Where human kind
Lives in trust
This kind of love
You don’t buy it
It’s not for sale
At any price
So don’t try it
I thought love
A choice we make
Turn it on, turn it off
My mistake
This kind of love
Will set you free
The roots run deep
Past all time
Beyond all thought
Eternity
Beyond trust!
The world of no
Knows nothing of wonder
It shatters dreams of those who confront her
It steals your soul for booty and plunder
No world for us!
I’m in love
I won’t deny it
I’ve done everything I can
To defy it
This kind of love
Is like a fire
It consumes you
Like the flames of desire
Let’s dream as if we live on forever
Let’s live like those who dare to confront her
Let’s thrive on stealing her thunder
This world for us!
Now, real love
Is so much more
Got to shed some overhead
Open the door
This kind of love
Is like a fire
It consumes you
Like the flames of desire
This kind of love
Will set you free
From a life of fear
Uncertainty
From a life of hope
Where human kind
Lives in trust

Two Lovers As One
Words and Music by
John Hart
Some people say we have all the luck
Others say God is smiling on us
Some people say it’s good karmic history
I only know we love simplicity
A roof overhead
And a simple change of clothes
The feel of soft white sand
Under fingers and toes
Two lovers as one
A love-infused body and soul
How can you go wrong?
When it’s love that makes us all whole
Two lovers as one
A love-infused body and soul
Our love will be strong
Like the Indivisible One
Some people say all they need is wealth
Others want to be blessed with good health
Some say they need only love and trust
I only know the island life is for us
Spicy rotis
And a bowl of Bajan soup
The smell of mown grass
At the Kensington Oval
Two lovers as one
A love-infused body and soul
How can you go wrong?
When it’s love that makes us all whole
Two lovers as one
A love-infused body and soul
Our love will be strong
Like the Indivisible One
Two lovers as one
A love-infused body and soul
How can you go wrong?
When it’s love that makes us all whole
There’s no dimension
To measure the depth of our bond
Our love will be strong
Like the Indivisible One
Two lovers as one
A love-infused body and soul
How can you go wrong?
When it’s love that makes us all whole
There’s no dimension
To measure the depth of our bond
Our love will be strong
Like the Indivisible One
We may agree to disagree
Love is never divided by Philosophy
Oh no

So E-Sensual
Words and Music by
John Hart
So E-Sensual
Pair of lovers
Their toes touching
Under covers
So E-Sensual
So E-Sensual
The exotic
As precursor
To the erotic
So E-Sensual
So E-Sensual
Fingers clutching
Breasts heaving
Boundaries dissolving
So E-Sensual
So many choices in life
Love versus hate
And dark over light
Nothing less conventional
Nothing so consensual
As mutual trust and delight
Show me a world that never heard
Of the fall from grace
Let me show you a place
Where design follows grace
And life is affirmed today
Today
Beauty before me
Beauty behind me
Beauty above me
Beauty all around me
So E-Sensual
No room for thinking
So E-Sensual
Lovemaking murmurs
Oceans of feeling
So E-Sensual
So E-Sensual

There’s No Point In Us
Words and Music by
John Hart
There’s no point in us
Doing the same things we’ve done
Before
There’s no point in us
Taking the steps
Never going through the door
Living only in our heads
Thoughts of you and me and when
and then
No
There would be no point in us
At all
There’s no reason for us
If we’re no more than
Random guests
There’s no reason for us
Living for ourselves
Never knowing who we are
Living for a crust of bread
Thoughts of who and why and they
and them
No
There would be no point in us
Unless
Let each of us resolve
This minute
To consciously evolve
Breath by breath
Let each of us dissolve
Here and now
In pure love
Let each of us decide
This minute
To consciously reside
Breath by breath
Look fearlessly inside
Here and now
And find love
There’s no point in us
Praying for the same things day by day
There’s no point in us
Looking only up
Missing all in front of us
Living for some vague reward
Thoughts of me and mine and mostly me
No
There would be no point in us
Unless
Let each of us resolve
This minute
To consciously evolve
Breath by breath
Let’s each of us dissolve
Here and now
In pure love
Let each of us commit
This minute
To consciously submit
Breath by breath
Let each of us see fit
Here and now
To live love

Put Your Trust In Trust
Words and Music by
John Hart
Cringing at my false pride
Staring at the dark side
Peering out across the abyss
Verging on a landslide
Bracing for a rough ride
Imploding under forces inside
I know
She knows
I hurt
She sighs
She says
You can
You must
Put your trust in trust
My love
In trust you’re safe
Now put your faith in faith
My love
We can, in time
Trust a universe divine
If only for a time
One day it’s clear
We don’t need a plan
My dear
Trust in faith and
All will be revealed
Frightened by my heart rate
Blinded by my dark state
Spiraling way out of control
I know
She knows
I hurt
She sighs
She says
You can
You must
Put your trust in trust
My love
In trust you’re safe
Now put your faith in faith
My love
We can, in time
Trust a universe divine
If only for a time
One day it’s clear
We don’t need a plan
My dear
Trust in faith and
All will be revealed
Trekking ‘cross a barren desert
Searching for a lost Oasis
Drinking from the wellspring of life
Silver moon in final quarter
Shining on a pool of water
Reflecting the
Image of God before time
Sucked up by a rip tide
Spewed out by a high tide
Washed up on
A faraway shore
Lying on my left side
My lover on my right side
Naked, cold and
Stripped of disguise
I know
She knows
I hurt
She sighs
She says
You can
You must
Put your trust in trust
My love
In trust you’re safe
Now put your faith in faith
My love
I can
I must
Put my trust in trust
My love
I can
In time
Trust a universe divine
Now and for all time
