WHO DO YOU BELIEVE IN

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

2017


CARRY ME FORWARD WITH GRACE
DIGNITY AND A SMILE ON MY FACE
GIVE ME STRENGTH TO CARRY ON
INTO THE FUTURE TAKE ME ALONG
THE MANY ROADS THAT I'VE BEEN DOWN
NEVER EXPECTING TO FIND
SOME OF THE THINGS I FOUND

WELL THE SHADOWS GREW SO LONG
AS TO TOUCH THE SKY
THE SUMMER RECEDED 
GIVING WAY TO SWIRLING SNOW
FORCING ME TO STAY
BUT THERE WERE OTHER TIMES THAT HAD IT ALL
DAYS WHEN I STOOD SO TALL
SUMMERS FILLED WITH MAGIC
NEVER TO BE MATCHED

I TURNED AROUND AND THEY WERE GONE
I TURNED TO FACE THE SUN
AND DREAMS SLIPPED AWAY 
LEAVING BEHIND THE WRECKAGE
THE HURT THE REMORSE THE TEARS
THE INFINITE FEARS INSIDE
THE YEARS IT TOOK TO OVER RIDE
LIFE CAN BE A MYSTERY
EACH SECRET YOU UNLOCK
LEADS YOU TO ANOTHER DOOR
THERE'S ALWAYS MORE
 LEADING YOU TO PLACES
YOU NEVER THOUGHT YOU'D GO

TAKING MY CHANCES, LIVING DAY TO DAY
WAITING FOR THE COVER OF NIGHT TO SLIP AWAY
WHO DO YOU PUT YOUR TRUST IN
WHO DO YOU BELIEVE IN
WHEN YOU NEED SOMEONE TO LEAN ON
SITTING BY THE FIRE, DEEP IN THOUGHT
A MILLION MILES AWAY
WITH SOME THINGS I FORGOT
INSIDE EACH MEMORY
WONDERING WHAT IT'S BECOME
IS IT ALL PART OF ME
SOMETHING THAT I AM,DEEP DOWN INSIDE
PART OF THE MYSTIQUE 
PART OF THE RIDE

SOMETIMES I THINK I'M BROKEN
AFFECTED BY SO MANY THINGS
BUT WHERE IS THE COMPARISON
NOBODIES IMMUNE
THE FOUR WINDS BLOW ON ONE AND ALL
THE TREES BEND SOME WILL FALL
ANOTHER SECRET ANOTHER DOOR
I CAN SEE THERE'S MORE
AS I LOOK ACROSS THE EXPANSES
THERE'S STILL SO MANY CHANCES
JUST GIVE ME THE TIME
