World Of White

WORLD OF WHITE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

TWILIGHT TURNS TO BLACK

SKIES FADE AWAY

WAITING FOR THE MOON

FIGHTING OFF A QUICK RAIN

CAST OFF WINTERS DREARY GLOOM 

DARK SHADOWS IN MY ROOM

HAVE TO GO

BEFORE YOU KNOW IT

ICE WILL MELT, WATER FLOW

ON WINTERS BROKEN BACK

APRILS HERE AND WE'RE ALL

WAITING FOR THE MAY QUEEN

TO COME SHINING WITH THE SUN

THE NOURISHING RAINS OF SPRING

THE SWEET SCENT OF FLOWERS AWAKENING

IN THIS DARK LIGHT

THE SPRING WON'T HEAL

LAST NIGHT I THOUGHT IT WAS LOST

THE SNOW STARTED FALLING

AND IT WOULDN'T STOP

UNTIL THE MORNING LIGHT

THE SUN LAID CLAIM TO A WORLD OF WHITE

NOW WE'RE ALL WAITING

KIND OF SUFFOCATING

ON ALL OF THIS SNOW

KIND OF GIVING UP ON

EVER SEEING SUMMER

HOLDING ONTO HOPES AND DREAMS

PICTURING A DIFFERENT SCENE THAN THIS

HEAT OF SUMMER, GREEN TREES AND HILLS

SUMMER MOON PLEASE COME SOON

LIFT US FROM THE DEPTHS OF DESPAIR

YA YOU'LL FIND US THERE

I CAN'T SLEEP CAN THIS BE REAL

NOW YOU KNOW THE WAY WE FEEL

AS SPRING LIES BROKEN IN A FROZEN FIELD

Smiling Moon

SMILING MOON

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

DAYS DROP OFF AND DISAPPEAR 

COULD THE END BE NEAR

WE SOARED THROUGH THE ENDLESS SKIES

WE SAILED THROUGH TROUBLED WATERS 

WE WALKED THROUGH THE DESERT

FOUGHT STORMS OF WIND AND SAND

WE SURVIVED THINGS WE NEVER PLANNED

AFTER THE CALM  THE CONFIDENCE COMES

LOOK TO THE SKY

LET IT GET INSIDE

THE DREAM NEVER DIES

OPENED YOUR EYES SO MANY TIMES

LIFE TOOK YOU AWAY

FROM THE THINGS YOU LOVE

SO MUCH BEHIND YOU, SO MUCH GONE

TOO MANY THINGS THAT COULD GO WRONG

STARS STRETCH ACROSS GALAXIES

AS FAR AS YOU CAN SEE

YOU WATCH IT PULSE AND GLOW

ENDLESSLY CHANGING INTO SOMETHING MORE

SMILING MOON SMILED AT YOU

WHATCHA GONNA DO 

YOU ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU HAD THE TIME

YOU COULD FALL BEHIND

WINE WOMEN AND SONG TO LEAD YOU ON

LEAD YOU AWAY

YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU SHOULD GO

AND THEN YOU'RE GONE

NOW YOU COME DRIFTING BACK

A BATTERED BOAT ASEA

DETERMINED TO MAKE LANDFALL

SET FOOT ON SHORE

TO START AGAIN ANOTHER CHANCE TO MAKE IT SHINE

YOU KNOW ALL YOU CAN DO IS TRY

AFTER ALL IT'S WHAT'S INSIDE

GIVE YOUR HEART GIVE YOUR SOUL

DON'T GIVE IN YA NEVER KNOW

WISH UPON A STAR

MAKE ANOTHER DREAM COME TRUE

THE DREAM NEVER DIES

IT ONLY FAILS OR FLIES

ANOTHER CHANCE TO BE

 THE GOOD CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE

YOU CAN RUN FROM TROUBLE

BUT YOU CAN'T RUN FROM DESIRE

FUEL TO THE FIRE

SEE IT BURN

IT'S OKAY TO HAVE LIVED

AS LONG AS YOU LEARNED

Untethered

UNTETHERED

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

STILL THE NIGHT, DEEP SEA BLUE THE SKY

STEEPED IN STARLIGHT

BATHED IN MOONLIGHT

WE WAIT WE WATCH

SHARING THIS DREAM

IMMERSED IN IT'S WONDROUS MAGIC

CURIOSITIES IT SEEMS

WORLDS BEYOND US

WHERE SHOULD WE START

THEY'VE BEEN HERE AND GONE

LEFT WITH THE DAWN

WHO DID THEY TAKE ALONG

THE BRIDGE FROM HERE TO THERE

EXTENDS BEYOND THE REALM

WE MUST KNOW WHAT AWAITS US

AS WE DREAM

SOMETHING WE HAVE SEEN

AN ANCIENT MEMORY

BURNED INTO OUR BEING

TIMELESS STILL AND SILENT

THE HOURS OF THE STARS

STANDING ALL ALONE

VIGILANT OF THE NIGHT

KEEPER OF ALL YOU SEE

WHERE IS IT THAT YOU'RE GOING

WHERE WILL YOU BE

IS THIS THE WAY

IS THAT THE LIGHT

 WE SAIL EFFORTLESSLY

THROUGH THE NIGHT

CROSS OUR EARTHLY BOUNDS

JUST ONE GATEWAY

THIS PATH WE'RE ON

WE WERE NEVER ALONE

KEPT ON GOING

ALL ALONG WE KNEW THE WAY

UNTETHERED UNRESTRAINED

DESIRE WOKE AGAIN

THEY CAN'T DOUSE YOUR FIRE

GOOD TO SEE YOU HELD OUT

FOR SO LONG

YOU COULD TELL THE THINGS

 THEY TOLD YOU WERE ALL WRONG 

THEY TURNED OUR WORLD

UPSIDE DOWN

USED US ALL FOR GAIN

 SEE OUR FREEDOMS DIE

ONE BY ONE

SEE OUR CUSTOMS PUSHED ASIDE

LUST GREED AND POWER SATISFIED

More Near Than Far

MORE NEAR THAN FAR

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

GATHERING FLOWERS, GATHERING LEAVES

MAKING MEDICINE IN LITTLE SHEAVES

THE SUN SHINES DOWN

ON A LAZY AFTERNOON

A QUIET WOODS, A WORLD UNTO ITSELF

BLACKBIRD LAUGHING BY A STREAM

SPLASHING IN THE WATER, HE'S SO CLEAN

I COME HERE MY MIND ALL IN DISARRAY 

BY THE TIME THAT I LEAVE A PEACEFUL SOUL 

I KNOW IT WILL BE WHAT IT IS

BETTER THAN WHAT IT WAS

I TURN MY BACK AGAINST THE SUN

I'M HEADING OUT I'M DONE

SHOULD I HURRY OR TAKE MY TIME

FEED MY SOUL ON THE RUN

OR A LITTLE BIT AT A TIME

THE CHOICES ARE ENTIRELY MINE

THE REALITY, THE SUNDOWN

 MORE NEAR THAN FAR

AS I AM AND AS YOU ARE

WHAT I WAS I AM NO LONGER

BETTER STRONGER

ROOTED IN BLACKEST EARTH

HEAR THE MUSIC, HEAR THE SONG

FEEL THE VIBES THEY'RE NEVER WRONG

TONIGHT I SHALL GAZE

INTO THE STARRY SKY

UNTIL MY CONSCIOUSNESS TRANSCENDS ME

TO WHERE IT BEGINS

THINK OF LINK OF SOMETHING

INFINITE THAT NEVER ENDS

AM I LEFT BELIEVING EVERYTHING I KNOW 

DOESN'T MEAN A THING

AS TIME SWALLOWS UP THE ILLUSION

WE'VE CREATED

OH IT'S ALL WILD AND SPECULATION

DARK THINKING AND DESPERATION 

TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT

YOU ASK THE QUESTIONS

THE ANSWERS ARE FEW

TO FIGURE IT OUT IS UP TO YOU

GETTING CLOSER MORE NEAR THAN FAR

THERE'S A REASON YOU'RE WHERE YOU ARE

HANGING ON YOU WON'T LET GO

NOT SURE WHAT IT IS, YOU JUST DON'T KNOW

BUT IT'S FAR REACHING INTO YOUR SOUL 

SEEMS LIKE IT WON'T LET GO

YOU DREAM OF BEING FREE

BUT THE CLOSER YOU GET

THE FURTHER YOU SEEM TO BE

I'd Rather Be Here

I'D RATHER BE HERE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

STANDING ON A MOUNTAIN WAY UP HIGH

THINKING ABOUT MY LIFE

BUT I DON'T HAVE TIME TO CRY

ALL THIS BEAUTY THAT SURROUNDS ME

GOES RIGHT INSIDE ME

PEACEFUL INSIDE. FREE TO RIDE

AND DO MY OWN THING

COME WHAT MAY, COME WHAT LIFE WILL BRING

I'M JUST THE SAME OLD ME

AND EVERY CHANCE I GET  I SHUN SOCIETY

YOU CAN KEEP YOUR AFTERNOON TEA

APPOINTMENTS AT THREE

I DON'T WANT TO BE THERE

NO THAT'S NOT ME

MIDNIGHT COMES CREEPING

I'M STILL DREAMING INTO THE FIRE

INTO THE STARS

AND THE HEAVEN'S SHOOK ME LOOSE

AND CLOSED MY EYES

AND FIXED ME WITH A DREAM

I DON'T QUITE FIT IN

WITH PEOPLE THAT MAKE

LIVING A SIN

WORLD AWAY I'VE GOT TO SAY

I'D RATHER BE HERE

IN THE TALL TREES

IN THE MOUNTAINS

 THAT'S WHAT FREEDOM MEANS TO ME 

I SLEEP IN PEACE UNTIL THE SUNRISE

COMES TO FIND ME

SOME NEW CHALLENGE FOR A NEW DAY

I'LL TRY MY BEST TO FIND A WAY

AND FREEDOM FLEW LIKE A FLAG

IN THE MOUNTAIN BREEZE

FALLS LIKE RAIN

I GET MY FILL AND I'M NEW AGAIN

I JUST KEEP GOING

NO SENSE DWELLING ON THE END

I'M SURE IT WILL FIND ME

IT KNOWS WHERE I AM

THE PEACE, THE SOLITUDE

THE BEAUTY UNFOLDS

NO CHEATING, NO DECEPTION, NO LIES

FLOWER FILLED MEADOWS

STANDING IN THE SUN

EMERALD LAKE LIKE A JEWEL

HOT SPRING POOL

ALL I NEED TO FEED MY SOUL

WHERE IT FALLS

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

A SUMMER DAY WINDING DOWN

THE SUN IS SETTING

THE COLORS ARE RISING

BEAUTIFUL SKY

TOO MUCH BEAUTY TO HIDE

TO KEEP INSIDE

THE SERENITY, THE SOLITUDE

FINDS MY HEART

THAT'S WHERE IT STARTS

THE ENDLESS DREAM

THE TIME MACHINE

THAT HOLDS ME TO THE FUTURE

I'M STANDING FAST

I'M HOLDING ON

MY PATIENCE IS GROWING THIN

IT'S ALMOST GONE

FLOATING ON A SEA

OF UNCERTAINTY

LIKE A SINGLE LEAF

DANCING ON THE BREEZE

FLOATING NOT SURE WHERE TO LAND

A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT

THAT NOBODY OWNS

HALF A WORLD AWAY

ISN'T SO FAR

YOU CAN BE THERE

IN A DAY

BUT I CHOOSE TO BE HERE

I CHOOSE TO STAY

DON'T NEED SOMEWHERE ELSE

THIS AIN'T NO CONTEST

IT'S NOT A GAME

I KEEP IT REAL

BUT NEVER THE SAME

IN THE HARSH LIGHT

OF A NEW DAY

LAY IT OUT I'LL FIND A WAY

EVERY DAYS A CHALLENGE

A CHANCE TO PERSEVERE

I DON'T ALWAYS GET THERE

BUT I'M GETTING NEAR

FATE WILL LAND

 WHERE IT FALLS

WHEN THE NIGHT CLOSES IN

DARK SILENCE FILLS THE ROOM

I'M WIDE AWAKE WAITING

FOR WHAT I DON'T KNOW

THE TICKING OF THE CLOCK

AND THE MOONLIGHTS GLOW

Times Long Gone

TIMES LONG GONE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH THE DAWN

GRABBED MY COFFEE AND I WAS GONE

I DROVE INTO THE SUN

ROLLING ACROSS THE PRAIRIE

LIT UP FOR THE RUN

WIDE OPEN SPACES

ROUNDING OUT MY SOUL

I TURN NORTH, PASSING BY OLD FARMS

THEIR CHARMS HIDDEN IN THE TREES

OLD TRUCKS RUSTING IN THE FIELD

LONG PAST THEIR LAST MILE

OLD WINDMILL LONG SEIZED

RUSTY DINNER BELL

HANGING FROM THE PORCH

OLD TRACTOR IN THE TALL GRASS

I CAN PICTURE CLOTHES BLOWING

ON THIS OLD CLOTHESLINE

 

THERE'S HORSES GRAZING

IN A FIELD NEARBY 

PASTORAL TO THE POINT

OF A SILENT SADNESS

THAT RINGS IN TIMES LONG GONE

MAYBE IT'S JUST ME

TRYING TO HOLD ON

WHAT HIDDEN TREASURES TO DISCOVER

LITTLE BRIDGE COUNTRY STREAM

IN THE TREES A PLACE TO SIT AND DREAM

OLD CORN CRIBS FORGOTTEN IN TIME

BARN WITH A BROKEN BACK

OLD TIMES GOOD TIMES IN THE COUNTRY SUN

WORKING IN THE FIELDS TILL DARK

CRY OF A MEADOWLARK

SLEEPING LIKE A STONE

OH THE TIMES WE HAD 

THE TIMES WE LOST

TIMES WE REWIND JUST TO LOOK IN AGAIN

AFTER I'VE BEEN WHERE I'VE BEEN

DAYS IN THE COUNTRY SUN

NEVER WONDERING WHAT TO DO

NO TIME FOR FEELING BLUE

I REMEMBER ALL TOO WELL

THE INNOCENCE OF THOSE DAYS

SITTING BACK AGAINST AN OAK IN THE SHADE

SIPPING ON A COKE, I WAS KING

IF I DIDN'T HAVE IT, I DIDN'T NEED A THING

FIELDS OF GREEN I HAVE SEEN

TURN TO GOLD IN THE COUNTRY SUN

I'M A COUNTRY BOY, AND I'LL ALWAYS BE ONE

THE TIMES LONG GONE

BUT THE FEELINGS ARE STILL STRONG

GREW UP STRAIGHT AND TALL

DON'T TAKE NO GUFF AT ALL

I'll ALWAYS STAND MY GROUND

IN MY LIFETIME A LOVE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

WHERE DOES IT START, BEGIN

WHY DOES IT EVER END

ANOTHER HEART ON THE LINE

JUST BLIND FAITH EVERY TIME

LOVE GROWS WINGS

LEARNS HOW TO FLY

SOMETHING, MONEY CAN'T BUY

SET ON LOVE

FELL ON YOU

LIKE SWEET SUMMER RAIN

AN ACT OF KINDNESS

A GENTLE TOUCH

ONE SIMPLE KISS

CAN MEAN SO MUCH

OUT OF YOUR SORROW

YOUR HEART TODAY

YOUR SOUL TOMORROW 

ONE LOOK IN YOUR EYES

THESE FEELINGS START TO RISE

YOU FOUND MY LOVE

DEEP INSIDE

IF YOU GET NEXT TO ME

I'LL BE YOUR DESTINY

SUNRISE COMING ON

PRETTY COLORS FADE THE DAWN

WATCHING WAVES

 BREAK ON DISTANT SHORES

WATCHING STARS

 DANCE WITH THE MOON

REACHING OUT

FINDING YOUR HAND

TAKE ME TO THE END

WHEN I GET TIRED

TOO TIRED TO SEE

WILL YOU BE MY EYES

IN MY LIFETIME

WILL YOU BE MY SAVING GRACE

A LOVE I CANNOT DENY

A LOVE THAT NEVER HIDES FROM CHANGE

FROM STORMS FROM RAIN

FROM THE SUNSHINE

OF YOUR LOVE

TO THE RAINBOW OF YOUR SMILE

SO WHAT IS IT THAT YOU FEEL

I WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT

WANT TO BE CLEAR ABOUT IT

IN MY LIFETIME

A LOVE SO FAIR

TO WAKE UP AND FIND YOU THERE

SOMEWHAT LIKE THE MORNING SUN

WHEN IT FINDS MY FACE

SLIPPING THROUGH MY FINGERS

AND FALLING FROM GRACE 

IS THIS WHAT LOVE LOOKS LIKE

FROM THE OUTSIDE

GOD WILLING

I WANNA STAY ON THE INSIDE

OF YOUR SWEET UNDYING LOVE

WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO

TO ALWAYS BE YOUR HERO

ALWAYS BE THIS LOVED BY YOU

A HEART AS LIGHT AS MINE

WAITING FOR THE GREATER GOOD

AND I WISH I COULD

I WISH YOU WOULD

LOOK INTO MY EYES

THE WAY YOU DO

TELL ME THIS IS GONNA BE FOREVER

LET ME FALL ON YOU

LIKE SWEET SUMMER RAIN
