Angels AppearWords and Music by Darlyne Cain

Open your mind, rise above darkness -
Escape from yourself, trust me now
Don't wonder why -
If you look in their faces it will erase any doubt, `cause
Chorus:
Angels appear if you are open
The angels appear when you need some direction
Angels appear - don't look too closely
Believe in your destiny and help will arrive
`Cause angels appear in your life___________.
Give me a smile -
It means so much to reach out of yourself for a while
Follow your heart, remember who loves you -
The comfort you find will remind you that
(CHORUS)
It's so easy to reason away any faith
When you trust in a stranger like a friend
They can assist you on your way and
You may never see them again
You may never see them again
(BREAK) (CHORUS)
In your life…in your life…
Can I Stand By?Words and Music by Darlyne Cain

Can I stand by while you make this mistake -
Should I sit quietly while you give your life away?
It's time I keep my mouth closed, though I really want to say,
"Don't do it."
Can I stand by and watch you make this a mistake?
Can I sit right here and not care -
Is there any way to lessen all I feel when I'm aware?
Will you hate me for saying what you don't want to hear -
Can I stand by and pretend not to care?
Can I fight what's on my mind?
You're an actor, playing fine and happy, you should get the prize
For attempts at this relationship--I'd have quit long ago
Yet you're gonna marry that guy who drives you out the door
Oh no no no, no no, no no…
Will you realize before it's too late -
Child I gotta get back and see reality's not fate
You can do it now before your love becomes hate
Can I stand by…
Can I stand by while you make this mistake?
Ohh, I cannot stand by….cannot stand by…
