TURN THE TIDE

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

JUNE 2016

YOU ALWAYS FIND THE BEAUTY IN THE DAY

EVEN IF IT'S HIDDEN AWAY

YOU DON'T LET YOUR EMOTIONS CARRY YOU AWAY

TO A PLACE YOU KNOW YOU'D RATHER NOT BE

FLIGHTS OF FANCY THAT NEVER LEFT THE GROUND

SUMMERS THAT DISAPPEAR WITHOUT A SOUND

PLANS PUT ON HOLD THAT COULDN'T CARRY ON

YOU SAID DON'T WORRY IT WON'T TAKE LONG

WE GET TO LOOK FORWARD TO AGAIN

SUCH ARE THE MESSAGES YOU SEND

OUR LOVES LASTED THROUGH IT ALL

WE STUMBLED BUT WE NEVER FELL

TEARS AND LAUGHTER WE SHARED

TOOK OUR CHANCES WHEN WE DARED

I CAN'T GO WRONG WITH YOU BY MY SIDE

MAYBE TOGETHER WE CAN TURN THE TIDE

I CAN'T ALWAYS PROTECT YOU

FROM LIFE'S LITTLE KNOCKS 

BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I DON'T TRY 

I NEVER LIKE TO SEE TEARS IN YOUR EYES

ALL YOU MEAN TO ME, AND I WANT TO BE, ALL YOU NEED

IN THE DAWN OF EACH NEW DAY

ALL I NEED IN MY WORLD IS YOU

AND A PLACE TO REST MY HEAD

THINGS AREN'T SO BAD

AFTER ALL IS DONE AND SAID

YOU RESCUE ME WHEN I DESPAIR

ALWAYS FIND YOU RIGHT THERE TO QUESTION WHY

YOU PICK ME UP AND MAKE ME SMILE

HOLD ME FOR A LITTLE WHILE

UNTIL YOU THINK THAT I'M OKAY

ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU SAY TO ME

NEVER AN UNKIND WORD

YOU BELONG AT MY SIDE 

TOGETHER WE CAN TURN THE TIDE

I CAN'T GO WRONG STOOD HERE WITH YOU

WHAT ELSE WOULD I DO
