Half Awake 01:09

The night is getting on, the band is getting show, The crowd is almost gone And here we are still dancin'... Nothing to do but waltz. Our feet can barely move, My legs are yellin' "whoa", But we're in such a groove that love is still advancin'... Nothing to do but waltz. You can't suggest that we could go on jitterbuggin', We've nothing left for moves more strenuous than huggin', But we don't need much room to gently cut a rug in we two. I'm tired and out of juice, And yet from head to toe My body's feeling loose and warm and kind of supple... Nothing to do but waltz, The moments slip away, My arms just won't let go. I think I'd like to stay 'Til we're the only couple... Nothing to do but waltz. You never know how far this sort of thing will get you. We're not as tired as we would like to think, I bet you. You'd stay up half the night with me if I would let you, So come let the waltz play again.

I rise... Bird song comes to greet my ears, But it's your voice That I long to hear While I lie here all alone... No broken hearts at home. To think, We've been friends for all these years. And you've shared with me Each of your fears. But you still fight them alone... No broken hearts at home. Oh, do you see me? Oh, could it be me? I can't fight this feeling anymore, Oh please set me free. It's no secret even if I tried, I'm stuck loving you Until I die. So I'll stay here all alone... No broken hearts at home. No broken hearts at home.

Echoes 03:36
Views, views of the hills and of the trees Flow, flow to me nightly in my dreams. And I hear your voice calling Across the waves That crash to the shore. But they're just echoes of the voice you have no more, And I know you're gone, But still your song goes on. Left to me Is the ghost of you... Go on and live Like you want me to... But they're just echoes of the voice you have no more, And I know you're gone, But still your song goes on.

Can't wait to see your smile Light up on this next Sunday morn. You're not the only one Who tries to be good all week long. Right now you're so young in life, And there's so many things to show you. Can't wait tohold your books As you walk up the steps to school. The friends you'll make, the risks you'll take Are all are yours for the making. Right now you're so young in life, And there's so many things to show you. If I can help Shape Your Light And teach you to do what's right, Then the beauty and joy of life Are yours. Can't wait to share your joys, And shield you from the heartbreaks too. It won't be long 'til you're full grown And I'm not near to you. Sometimes I wish I Could pause time and hold... Onto each grain of sand, Take my hand and we'll go. If I can help Shape Your Light And teach you to do what's right... If I can help Shape Your Light And teach you to do what's right, Then the beauty and joy of life Are yours.

Love Is You 04:59
What's your definition of it, How's it make you feel? Tell me what you say that truly makes it real. Kings and queens, philosophers Have tried so hard to find... Tell me what it means to you dear, never mind. Love is kind when the world is cold, Love stays strong when the fight gets old, Love is a shoulder to lean on, Love is you. Love's like the water when the well runs dry, Quench my thirst, keepin' me alive. Just need one sip baby. Love is you! Is it possible there is a kiss that's so divine? Or am I just a fool, Is it all in my mind? "Is it something chemical?", A scientist might say. Well love must be a drug to make me feel this way. 'Cause love's my permission to be who I am, No inhibitions cause you understand, Freedom to breathe, oh baby, Love is you. Love is like a kiss when the sun goes down, Hold's me tight when no one's around, Love's what I wanna hold on to, Love is you. Love is you (7x) Oh.. Love is kind it makes me stronger, I don't have to look much longer, You're the one I cling to, Love is you. And when the chips are down Love will hang around. I'm so glad I found you, love is you. [guitar solo] Love is kind it makes me stronger, I don't have to look much longer, You're the one I cling to, Love is you. And when the chips are down Love will hang around. I'm so glad I found you, love is you. I've searched the world for the answers to The questions I have 'bout me and you, Always seem to find that love is you. As much as I've tried to clarify, Love's quite simple: you're just my type. Perfect definition, love is you. Love is you (6x)

about

With a crystal clear tone and a love for leaning into the nitty-gritty tales of life, Los Angeles-based Schafer's take on well-worn tunes are unique and comforting in-the-moment flights that make audience members feel part of something momentous. Playful, sultry, and completely heartfelt.

“Maria’s voice is one you don’t forget… solid, clean…every note is perfect.
Love her sound. It has a jazz legacy feel to it that brings back the great memories of the great jazz divas.”
- Rich Germaine, Jazz Radio Network

The third release on the Marsch Music label, new album “No Broken Hearts” is a mixture of fresh and quirky takes on jazz standards, dreamy originals with a singer-songwriter vibe, and dancing folk sambas. Recorded after Schafer and longtime guitarist Shane Savala finished their first tour of the Western US, these self-assurred and light-footed arrangements offer an approachable meal to delight all listeners on an emotional journey. Originals “No Broken Hearts”, “Echoes”, “Make It Real”, and “Shape Your Light (Extended Version)” offer a taste of future albums with a greater journey into original songwriting.
