lyrics

The time has come to sing and play
The spring is here and we rejoice
Between the mountains and the bay
The valley rings with many voices:
Wizarding rockers and Trekkies and Trockers
And space operetta to spare
Magic and wonder and puns and more puns
And some music composed on a dare
If there's a song in your heart, you can share it
if you've got a dream on your mind, you can dare it
Now's your chance! Come on and dance!
Go wild as you want to, you've got to believe
We can build confidence,
Creating Consonance!

The moon is in tune with the cat and the fiddle,
The circle’s a galaxy, swirling with sound
The words and the melody meet in the middle,
And we'll all bring it home the long way around

Silly and strange are the worlds we arrange,
There are stories for every sun
There's so much to do, there's a place for you too
You know art is for everyone
If there's a song in your heart, you can share it
If you've got a dream on your mind you can dare it
Now's your chance! Come on and dance!
We'll go wild as we want to, we've got to believe
We can build confidence
Build homes and hopes and dreams
Of such great consequence
We can build confidence
Creating Consonance!

Lauren Oxford
by Lauren Oxford

I could listen to Lauren sing forever. Her writing is vivid and sensitive, sweetly and painfully human--never apologizing for sharp corners and rough edges. The beauty of her spirit shines through. Summer Russell

It's funny, I wouldn't say Cathy is a favorite artist, but I do have a lot of her stuff. Even though she sings about fantasy & esoteric things, I feel it. I think everyone can relate. TimTTT
