Harry’s Song
Written by Karen Chassie

Produced by Larry Kucher

 

I got the blues,

Never gonna see your
Smilin’ face again
I got the blues,

Never gonna see your
Smilin’ face again
Just got the news
Now my heart is breaking
You gave me no clues
Thought they were mistaken
Hard to believe

Your concrete disguise
Your veil of shadows,

The clouds in your eyes

I got the blues,

I’m never gonna see your
Smilin’ face again
I got the blues,

Never gonna see your
Smilin’ face again
Hard to believe

You’ll never walk

Through that door
Left with sweet memories
But I’m yearning for more
I can’t find the words,

Cos I’m fighting the pain
Closing my eyes

Just to see you again

I got the blues,

Never gonna touch the
Lips that I once kissed
I’m racking my brain,

Trying to figure out
All the clues that I missed
You left me no reason,

No note to hang on
I’m drowning in memories,

Happiness gone
Trying to capture

Your voice in my head
Searching my soul
Through the tears that I shed

I got the blues,

Never gonna see your
Smilin’ face again
I got the blues,

Never gonna see your
Smilin’ face again
Feeling so guilty

About words left unsaid
Cannot believe you

Put a gun to your head
All of the dreams

I know you had
Why didn’t I know

That you were so sad?
I got the blues

Give & Take
Written by Karen Chassie

​Produced by Larry Kucher

 

Love takes the patience of a saint
That thorny rose’ll make you bleed
But if you find the truest heart
It’ll be exactly what you need
He knows I love him
Love him through and through
But it’s give and take
It’s what ya gotta do

He loves hot and spicy food
But all my recipes are mild
He loves camping in the woods
And Hashing through the wild
He loves his big house
I want a condo in Malibu
But it’s give and take
That gets us through

Sometimes, I really

Feel like running
Out the front door
Sometimes, it really

Feels like all-out war
Sometimes, it feels

Like all I do is compromise
But one look in his eyes

And I know that
I’ll love him forevermore.

He loves living on the edge
I like to plan ahead of time
I love sleeping in late
He acts like it’s a crime
But he knows that I love him
I know he loves me too
It’s give and take
That gets us through

Sometimes, I really feel

Like running out the front door
Sometimes, it really feels 

Like all-out war
Sometimes, it feels

Like all I do is compromise
But one look in his eyes

And I know that
I’ll love him forevermore.

Love takes the patience of a saint
That thorny rose’ll make you bleed
But if you find the truest heart
It’ll be exactly what you need
You know the secret
That always rings true
It’s give and take
That gets you through

The Better Half of Me
Written by Karen Chassie 

Produced by Larry Kucher

 

I had to write you a love song

Cos you’re the better half of me

Words are boring alone on a page

So I grabbed my ukulele

You’re my heart and soul

You’re my rock and roll

You’re my anchor, you’re my steel

You reel me in when I’m floating alone

You’re my Gelato in a waffle cone

I had to write you a love song

Cos you’re the better half of me

Can’t imagine a life without you

Sailing alone on the open sea

Cos you’re my sunshine,

You’re my rain

You’re my wisdom,

You’re my flame

You’re my religion,

      My laughter, my Zen         

And I’d marry you all over again

And I know

when the heavy winds blow

And I know

when the earth begins to shake

Yeah Yeah, you know I know

When there’s fire in the air

You’ll be there, you’ll be there

I had to write you a love song

Cos you’re the better half of me

No one will ever take your place

Cos you’re the world to me

You’re my hot cocoa on a snowy day

The scent of Lilacs in the month of May

My slice of pizza with extra cheese

My island sun, my Caribbean breeze

You’re the lighting in my spunk

You’re the honey in my tea

You’re the diamond in my ring

You’re the better half of me

You’re the apples in my tree

You’re the better half of me
