On My Own 02:26
Everybody sees something different in me And I'm trying to figure out who I wanna be And I'm living day to day I've got no plans a week from now I've got my friends and my guitar and I'm getting by somehow And I don't need much I've got Vancouver shies and the oceans touch CHORUS And I get by on my own Yea I get by on my own It's been a long time since there was someone A long time since I've loved And I get by on my own You asked me where did I go wrong But it's clear to me from the lyrics of this song That there's nowhere else that I'd rather be Then sittin hear surrounded by this beautiful sea

Say 04:06
There comes a time when the seasons change and everything doesn't look the same When a cool breeze blows through your hair and you see a smile and you feel a stare Pre Chorus Oh your stomach's in knots and to your surprise He catches your eye and he starts to walk You don't know who he is but he's coming your way And everything becomes a haze CHORUS Oh say, say that you'll come And I will run like I've never done And say, say that you'll stay Never look back and take me away Dreams are like diamonds precious and rare And I found perfection in one little stare And you don't care about time and meaningless things Cause he's all that you wanted so your heart starts to sing Oh your stomach's in knots and to your surprise He catches your eye and he starts to walk You don't know who he is but he's coming your way And everything becomes a haze

You And I 03:22
Am I as far as I think I am? Am I on the outside lookin in? Did I take your hands and nail them down? Did I smear your name upon the ground? Can I take back all the things I said? Am I too far gone and better off dead? Is there anything that i can say to come back to to you? Chorus I hope you know that I wanted You to be right by my side I hope You see that i was weak but now I want what's right You by my side You and I Can you take me back to the the time when I sang you song all through the night When I gave you everything I had When you took the good times with the bad I just wanna get back to the place when I'd wake up and I'd see your face And I know that I'd make it through the day Cause I'd have you To see me through Bridge You gave me everything I could ever need You made me better cause I believed And I walked away, yea I walked away, Oh I walked away, I walked away Chorus

Those Days 03:06
When i was a little girl i dreamed of how my life would be What kind of job would i have and would i have a family I'd play it out in my head, a daydream child like fantasy A perfect though in my mind thinking of how my life will be And now that i am older I wait for another bill to show And I'm on the other side of the country so far away from home And there's no man in my house hold i guess i haven't found the one The one i made up in my mind when I was young Chorus Take me back to the days when I was young and i'd run and play When there were no worries or cares in the world take me back to those days Summers would be better if my brothers were around We'd jam all night with our guitars and sing Oh so loud And mom and dad they'd join in and it only seemed right Since they're the one's who planted the music deep inside Chorus
5.
The One 03:36
He take the time to say "you're beautiful what's your name"? And then you laugh as he says "we should go on a date" Holding hands and makin plans and then here come the kiss You get weak knees and fall to your feet and then you know you're his The butterflies inside are so strong you cannot hide The way that you feel, this time it is real, you know you can't deny This one, is the one, the one you've been waiting for The kind of guy who wont run and hide He's always on you mind and.. He says that he's never felt this way before He says that you are all that he adores And you love the way he surprises you with gifts And you feel his love every time you kiss He takes you by the hand, says I'l forever be your guy i wont let you down, I'll be around until the end of time He gets down on one knee and says without you he feels less You start to cry and kneel down beside and whisper the words yes and.. Bridge He takes away all the stereotypical things that they say Your heart is safe with him cause you know that things will always be this way Chorus
6.
He's close but you can't see He's there when you're in need You're tired and you feel the weight and you fall down to your knees You're weak but wont give in Tired but you wont sleep Cause there's more to do then lay here in defeat Time can wear you down when you've fallen to the ground You need a helping hand, someone who understands Pre Chorus But life can turn around when someone calms you down And helps you on your way and takes the time to say Chorus You are beautiful to me You have beautiful feet So walk on, walk to oh the life you have in me Oh walk on, walk on with your beautiful feet People come and go Affections are like snow They melt or go away They never seem to stay Your heart has taken on more the you let on I see it in you eyes cause that sparkle is gone Pre chorus Chorus
7.
Come Back 03:32
Time to get back the flame the one that's off and distant Returning to it's true form the one that's so persistent Ohhhohhhh I've been dead and gone for a while I shook the hand of evil I went down to the depths and felt something so real Ohhhhohhh Chorus Time to get me back up, get me back up on my two feet again Time to get me back up, get me back up on my two feet again Words can grab a hold of you and wear you to the bone Making you feel frail and thinking your all alone Ohhhhohhh Live your life to the fullest, surround yourself with friends Make everything around you as fun as you can Live your life with grace and give to those in need Don't judge or you'll be judged be a planter of good seed Ooohoooh Chorus
8.
Every Breath 03:20
Take these hands that these wounds All I have I give to you All my life I've let you down Now hear I am I wanna be with you now Pre Chorus Everyone says that I'm wasting my time If I don't come right now I might fall deeper inside Chorus Take these eyes so I can see Hold me close and be with me Everything I want is in you Give me life and fill these lungs with a sweeter song then I've ever sung Every breath I breath is for you In my heart I've made a place for you to come with a sweet embrace I'm on my knees with a thankful heart Crying out to you wherever you are Pre Chorus Chorus
9.
Seems like your amused at the way I fall Do you have something to say about the way things are Do ya disagree that i have something you don't And you ask yourself why Chorus I've got it all and you'll be sorry Cause every time I fall i see more of the story You can hate the world and tear it down But in the end you'll see that, All this time You were way out of line Do you need me to write it down? Can you understand? That the way you look at me has no effect on the way I am You can stare me down and I wont hesitate Chorus

So she hopped on a train, played her way across the country and did an eastern Canadian tour. Now back on the east coast Jen's really making herself know in the musical community.
