OLD FAVORITES





OLD FAVORITES
Written by: J.R HILTON 2016


FRIDAY NIGHT HAS COME AROUND, BUT I'M DOWN
WORKED ALL WEEK, TRIED TO GET AHEAD
LATELY THAT'S A FIGHT, I'M LOSING GROUND INSTEAD
KICKING BACK KILLING TIME
LISTENING TO OLD FAVORITES OF MINE
SITTING HERE REMINISCING, AND TAKING STOCK
ON EVERYTHING THAT'S MISSING, AND THERE'S SUCH A LOT 
COME TO PASS, AND SO MUCH MORE, NOTHING EVER LASTS

ME OH MY, I'M GETTING HIGH
WATCHING LITTLE BIRDS FLYING ALL AROUND ME
IN THE WOODS, HOW DID THEY FIND ME
WE WERE ALL, WAITING FOR THE SPRING 
AND WHAT JOYS IT MIGHT BRING

SUNNY WEATHER, TRACKING THROUGH THE WOODS
SUN RAYS, BREAKING THROUGH THE SUMMER TREES
A BABBLING BROOK, AND A LITTLE BREEZE
THIS IS NATURE, SHE'S MY CHURCH
MOTHER EARTH, WON'T YOU SMILE ON ME
SHOW ME,  HOW IT OUGHT TO BE 
ALL YOUR SCENERY, WITH PEACE IN MY HEART
WHAT BETTER PLACE TO START

HANGING BY A THREAD, IN THE BALANCE OF
AN EVER CHANGING WORLD
TRYING TO GO ALONG, AS MUCH AS TRYING TO STAY
TRYING TO BE STRONG, TRYING TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT
AND THERE'S SO MUCH TO FIGURE OUT
MUCH OF IT CAST IN DOUBT
SITTING HERE, DRINKING A BEER
LISTENING TO SOME OLD FAVORITES OF MINE
REMEMBERING WHEN EVERYTHING WAS JUST FINE
