Do you have 15-30 seconds to let the world know which is your favorite FAWM song?

It can be ANY of the songs we’ve “written together” over the last 3 years.

Please video you, your friends, your family, whoever you want, letting the world know which song is your favorite – you can simply tell us your favorite, or you can state your name and why you like the song. Whatever you want!

It will be used in a short promotional video.

You can email the clip to me at flo@floparis.net.

Lay down your head on me
Let the quiet say all it needs
To deafen the world outside
So lay down your head

Whisper your fears out loud
And make them seem so small
We’ll listen until they fade
Whisper your fears out loud

On the wings of the morning fly
Stronger than death it rides
What it will seek it finds
So lay down your head
Let love come in

Cast all your burdens down
Give them all to me
Unshackle your heavy heart
Cast all your burdens down

On the wings of the morning fly
Stronger than death it rides
What it will seek it finds
So lay down your head
Let love come in

On the wings of the morning fly
Stronger than death it rides
What it will seek it finds
So lay down your head
Let love come in

Lay down your head on me
Let the quiet say all it needs
To deafen the world outside
So lay down your head

Pull the sword out of your chest, hang it at my side
Draw the bullet back and lay my pistol down
There is no comfort in avenging life
There is no glory in a dead man

Hallelujah, Love’s the bravest soldier
Hallelujah, Love will overcome

Give me what is mine and I will give it back
Take my coat and turn the other cheek
It’s good and right but it won’t stop the heart attack
When we all suffer from the same disease

Hallelujah, Love’s the greatest healer
Hallelujah, Love will overcome

Rubble on the ground awakens
What was broken down is made new
Let every thing that has breath sing

Hallelujah, There’s a new forever
Sprung from all these ruins there is Love

Hallelujah, Love’s the only Savior
Hallelujah, Love will overcome
Hallelujah, Love is my redeemer
Hallelujah, He will overcome

(Title Submitted  by Margo Lund)

Pretty baby got your head hanging low
And sorrow in your eyes
Feeling like you’ll always be alone
Like the world has left your side

When the dam breaks
When your heart aches
When you’ve lost control

Lift up your eyes
Lift up your heart
Lift up your soul

That’s not a reason to cry
That’s not a reason to cry
That’s not a reason to cry

When the road is long, and it’s always long
When it never ends
When the day done and tomorrow comes
And your soul is spent

Don’t be afraid
When the river swells
When the water’s rise

Lift up your heart
Lift up your soul
Lift up your eyes

That’s not a reason to cry
That’s not a reason to cry
That’s not a reason to cry

You are not alone
You are not alone
No reason to cry
You are not alone
You are not alone
No reason to cry

I could drink you wine
Every time
You look at me
I could wake up each morning
And feel the glory
Of your breath on me

You, you are my ritual
Your love, your love is a liturgy

I would turn all your pages
Read you for ages
That’s what I’d do
I want all of the seconds
Of all of minutes
Of every hour with you

You, you are my ritual
Your love, your love is a mystery

Take me into your arms
Over and over
Over and over

You, you are my ritual
Your love, your love is a liturgy
You, you are my ritual
Your love, your love is a mystery

She didn’t want the kitchen sink
She didn’t want didn’t want goodbye
She didn’t want the aftermath
She didn’t want more lies
But this is where he leaves
And this is where she cries

Facing Everest
Cleaning up the mess he left
There’s weight in every step
Climbing Everest

She wanted to be over it
She wanted to be sure
She wanted to stop wanting him
She wanted something more
She couldn’t quite remember what
She was waiting for

Facing Everest
Cleaning up the mess he left
There’s weight in every step
Climbing Everest

And she knows where she is standing
She knows where she has been
There’s a new beginning
Starting from the end

Facing Everest
Moving past the mess he left
There’s freedom in each step
Climbing Everest

Danser
Vous dans votre veste
J’ai dans ma robe de fleurs
Danser
Tout par la nuit
Donnez-moi des bisous

Marcher
Au-dessous des arbres
Un couvert seulement pour nous
Marcher
Quand nous sommes fatigue
Donnez-moi des bisous

Donne-moi ton bise
Donne-moi ton bise
Donne-moi ton bise
Donnez-moi des bisous

Dance, Dance
You in your jacket and
I in my dress full of flowers
Dance, Dance
All through the night
Give me your kiss

Walk, Walk
Under the trees
A canopy only for us
Walk, Walk
When we are tired
Give me your kiss

Give me your kiss
Give me your kiss
Give me your kiss

Ella Loves Popcorn

(Title Submitted by Alison Osenga)

Some kids like skipping
Some like to hop
Some kids will race you
Others will not
But I know a girl named Elizabeth Clare
Eyes so blue and skin so fair
With feet so swift and light as air
She’ll dance and twirl most anywhere

Oh Ella, Sweet Ella
Ella, Sweet Ella

Some kids have hamsters
Some kids have frogs
Everyone knows
A boy loves his dog
But I know a chick with feathered feet
Snow white wings and a yellow beak
She squawks and clucks and pecks and peeps
She charms most anyone she meets

Oh Popcorn
Sweet Popcorn
Popcorn, sweet Popcorn

Two little ladies
Precious as pie
Play in the garden
Chasin’ the sky
They tweet and peep and dance and twirl
A sultan hen and a little girl

Popcorn
Ella loves Popcorn
Popcorn
Ella loves Popcorn

The Princess And The Fox

(Title Submitted by Sarah Hamner)

There was a princess fierce and brave
Big brown eyes and a pretty name
Hair that shimmered like a pot of gold

Every night when she closed her eyes
Her drowsy self got a big surprise
Sneaky little fox came scuttling into her dream

She said I am so fierce and brave
I am not scared of anything
So why must I be afraid
Of you, you, you, you, you

Was a fox wild and sly
Bushy tailed and shifty eyed
Fur as rusty red as the little pig’s house

Every night in his cozy den
The same ol’ nightmare will begin
A pretty princess chases him in his dream

He says I am so wild and sly
Tell me then, why can’t I hide
She pulls my tail and makes me cry
Oh why, why, why

She leaves her castle
He leaves his cozy den
They stop in the middle
And then…

Stare at each other they
Stare at each other they
Stare at each other they
Stare at each other
Till it gets really awkward and they both laugh and say
I am not afraid, anymore

Sometimes friendship can look odd
A picnic on the castle lawn
The princess and the fox sitting in the sun…

I Like A Man With Pearl Snaps

(Title Submitted by Brittany Cooper)

I like a man with pearl snaps
Leather and blue jeans are all that he has
From the tips of his boots to the top of his hat
He is the man for me

I like a man with a strong back
Cologne made of whiskey and a pipe in his hand
His beard pressed against me when we start to dance
He is the man for me

When the daylight is fading
He’ll come calling for me
Doesn’t matter what they say
We’ll ride on forever, chasing the sun
Stopping for nothing
And brandishing love

I like a man who is honest and wise
With eyes that are lonesome and blue as the sky
His heart may be tender but he’ll never cry
He is the man for me

I like a man with pearl snaps
He is the man for me
