UNLOCKING MEMORIES

 Written by: J.R HILTON

2016

ANGELS DANCING BENEATH THE STARS

WHILE FAIRIES LOOK ON AND LAUGH

THE FOREST HEAVES A SIGH

AS DUSK FALLS ON THE DAY

THE EVENING WIND PICKS UP BEGINS TO CRY

THEN AS SUDDENLY AS IT BEGAN, IT STOPS

WHISPERED HUSHES UNDER A WANING MOON

WILDFLOWERS SLEEP IN MEADOWS

SIPPING MORNING DEW

WAITING FOR THE SUN, WHEN THE NIGHT IS DONE

AND JUST LIKE THAT LIFE GOES ON

DOWN BY THE SEA, THE SUN IS TURNING

THE WATER INTO GOLD

UNLOCKING MEMORIES, THAT EACH OF US HOLD

WALKING DOWN THE BEACH, FOR MILES AT A TIME

NEVER GETTING TIRED OF WHAT I SEE

GIVE ME A WIDE OPEN ROAD

TO A WIDE OPEN FIELD

TO A STREAM IN THE WOODS, CANOPIED AND CONCEALED

GIVE ME A MOUNTAIN TO CLIMB, OR JUST TO ADMIRE

GIVE ME A LAKESIDE, SITTING BY THE FIRE

DEEPLY SATISFIED AND FREE

WHEN MOONLIGHT FALLS ON  SUMMER NIGHTS 

YOU FEEL IT DOWN SO DEEP

THE MEMORIES, THE FACES, THE LAUGHTER, AND THE TEARS

YOU'VE ALWAYS HAD IT RIGHT

YOU'RE FEELING FREE UNDER A BIG BLUE SKY

TO BE YOURSELF. TO SEE YOURSELF

SURROUNDED BY THE MAGIC THAT'S ALWAYS THERE
