QUESTIONS TO THE UNIVERSE

Written by: J.R HILTON - May 2016

Came upon a minstrel, singing a song
 Mandolin playing so nice
I had to sing along
We shared a drink and pleasantries
And he was gone
 Wended down the mountain path, onto the plains
 Wandering is in my veins
 I’m going way down, until I reach the Sea
What is and what should never be, often is

I’ll carry on until, my legs won’t carry me anymore
Then I’ll use my sticks, to carry on some more
Sweet nights, sleeping under star filled skies
You only get so many tries
 When rhyme and reason isn’t there
That’s when you won’t care anymore
Stoking the fire that’s got me mesmerized, Asking questions to the universe
Picking the answers from the soft air blowing
Is time showing, that I must be going

Headed for the sea, I can already feel the waves washing over me
Sunsets in the surf and sand, it’s all part of my plan
 Free and easy like the slipping tide
And the wind just sighed
For the rest of my days, I want to watch the waves
 It’s so calming, medicine for the heart and soul
This could work for me, a little cottage by the sea
 Mostly isolation and serenity
The fresh air I breathe, I know I couldn't leave
But It's just fantasy on my part
The reality is less attractive than the art
If only the dream would catch up with my heart

DON'T LET THE ANGELS CRY
As written by: J.R HILTON MAY 2016



 LIVING AS I DO TODAY
ALL MY LIFE SEEMS SO FARAWAY
FROM WHAT IT WAS BEFORE
YOU MIGHT NOT RECOGNIZE, WHO I AM NOW
A KISS AN EMBRACE, IT'S JUST NICE TO SEE YOUR FACE
REMINDS ME THAT IT'S BEEN SO LONG
WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE

IN YOUR EYES, IN MY MIND, ONE THOUSAND TIMES
NO ONE THERE BUT YOU AND I
BURNING UP THE YEARS WE MISSED
I SAW IT IN YOUR EYES, DON'T ACT SO SURPRISED
YOU CAN'T SAY IT NEVER CROSSED YOUR MIND
SOME LITTLE MEMORY THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND
IT'S ALWAYS THERE SOMEWHERE IT WON'T LET GO

WHAT WOULD I SAY IF I RAN INTO YOU 
MAYBE YOU WOULDN'T SEE, ALL THE WAY THROUGH
IT'S MORE THAN OKAY IF YOU DO
BECAUSE SO MUCH OF ME IS READY FOR YOU
I'VE GOT A FEELING THAT I MISSED OUT YEARS AGO
ON WHAT COULD OF BEEN A THING
NOW MAYBE IT'S ALL IN MY MIND
BUT ALL I KNOW IS WHEN I GO THERE
I HAVE SUCH A GOOD TIME WITH YOU

JUST A MEMORY THAT WILL NOT DIE
I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHY
BUT I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT I AIN'T NEVER BEEN ON YOUR MIND
NO ONE THERE BUT YOU AND I
THERE I SAID IT, DIDN'T I
DON'T LET THE ANGELS CRY
OR I CAN'T GET TO SLEEP

TIME IS ALL I NEED
WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON MAY 2016


I LEFT THE ROAD YEARS AGO
THINKING I COULD SETTLE DOWN
NEVER STAYED LONG IN ONE PLACE
I LIKED TO MOVE AROUND
THINGS CHANGED AS THINGS DO
SHE SAID GOODBYE, YOU AND I ARE THROUGH
NOW I'M ON THE ROAD, MY OLD HOME AWAY FROM HOME
NOT SURE WHERE I'M HEADED, BUT I'M GOING

CITY LIGHTS IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR, FADING AWAY
TOMORROWS JUST ANOTHER DAY
HEADING DOWN THE ROAD, THE COUNTRY PASSING BY
THE MOON LIGHTS MY WAY AND FILLS MY EYES
LONELY ROAD, UNDERSOLD, HEART AND SOUL FULL OF GOLD
WAITING TO UNFOLD AND SOMEDAY TRUE LOVE WILL FIND ME

 THE MILES PASS ME UNAFFECTED
LOST IN THOUGHT AND UNDIRECTED
NOT SURE WHERE I AM, BUT I DON'T CARE
DON'T HAVE TO BE ANYWHERE, FOR ANYONE, ANYMORE
IT'S JUST A LITTLE HARD TO TAKE
WHAT I THOUGHT THAT WE COULD MAKE

DREAMS AND WISHES SOMETIMES BREAK INTO PIECES
AND CRUMBLE IN THE DUST
SO HERE I GO IF I MUST
I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE
C'EST LA VIE, WHAT'S ONCE MORE
NEW DAY TOMORROW, ALREADY FEELS GOOD TO START AGAIN
ANY WHICH DIRECTION I CHOOSE
IS THE WAY I'M GOING, NOBODY SHOWING ME WHICH WAY
A LITTLE TIME IS ALL I NEED
LIFE GOES ON BUT NOW I'M GONE
 LIFE GOES ON, WAVE YOUR MAGIC WAND
AND GET ON, LIFE GOES ON

WISHING TREE

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON  MAY 2016


MEET ME AT THE WISHING TREE
I'LL WISH FOR YOU, YOU CAN WISH FOR ME
A MIRACLE IS ALL WE NEED
MAKE THAT WISH, PLANT THAT SEED
FLOURISH OR FADE 
I GOT DOWN ON MY KNEES AND PRAYED 
IT'S HARD TO JUST LEAVE THINGS TO FATE
WHEN OUR WISHES COME TRUE, WON'T THAT BE GREAT

WISHING TREE, I WISH YOU COULD TALK TO ME
TELL ME WHY THINGS AREN'T LIKE THEY SHOULD BE
THE WAY THE SUN  SHINES DOWN ON YOUR BRANCHES
YOU COULD HOLD ALL THE ANSWERS, WISHING TREE
I'LL BE THERE, YOU BE THERE FOR ME
MEET ME AT THE WISHING TREE
 BRING YOUR DREAMS YOUR ASPIRATIONS
WE'LL CAST IT ALL ON THE WINDS
BY THE WISHING TREE, THERE'S A SECRET PLACE
THAT I LIKE TO GO TO, JUST YOU AND ME

IF WISHES DON'T COME TRUE
THEN HOW DID I MEET YOU
AS THE SUN SETS IN THE SKY
LENDS TO EXPLAINING WHY
LOVE IS LOOSE BUT IT SURROUNDS YOU
LIKE THE FIRE IN THE HEARTH
I LOVE YOU, FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH

MOVING FORWARD FROM HERE
IS ALL I'M WAITING TO HEAR
THINK ABOUT THE WISHES WE MADE
BY THE WISHING TREE
 BRING THEM CLOSER TO YOU AND ME
WISHING TREE, GIVE ME ONE LAST WISH
AND I'LL BE ON MY WAY

FRAGILE WORLD

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON MAY 2016




IT'S ALWAYS TIME FOR SOMETHING
I NEVER GET TO REST
I'M ALWAYS ON THE GO BUT I DO MY BEST
I FOLLOWED A STAR, IT TOOK ME NORTH
I STOOD IN AWE AS I WATCHED THE AURORA COME FORTH
NO MATTER THE EXPLANATION. IT'S STILL A SIGHT TO BEHOLD
KIND OF STICKS WITH YOU IN THE NEXT MORNING COLD

I STARED INTO THE FIRE FOR HOURS
PONDERING THE PROBLEMS IN THIS WORLD 
LEFT ME SHAKEN AND BEWILDERED
HOLDING A BROKEN SWORD
SOMETIMES THE LIVES I'VE LIVED ALL MERGE TOGETHER
IN A STORY THAT NEVER ENDS
I'M STILL GATHERING UP THE CLUES
TO SEE THE MESSAGE IT SENDS

SEE HOW EVERYTHING IS HELD TOGETHER
WITH BITS OF STRING AND GLUE
WISHES AND GOOD INTENTIONS TO
LIFE IS FRAGILE, IT'S A FRAGILE WORLD 
RIPPED APART AT THE SEAMS
ALREADY STARTING TO BURN RIGHT THROUGH TO DREAMS
BUT I CAN'T DO A THING ABOUT IT
I'VE GOT TOO MUCH TO DO
ALL OF THESE THINGS THAT I'M GOING THROUGH

WHEN THE REVOLUTION GETS STARTED
THAT'S WHEN YOU CAN CALL ME TO WAR BESIDE YOU
BRING MY THUNDER TO THE MIX
GIVE MY SENSE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IT'S LONG AWAITED FIX 
TURN THIS WHOLE THING BACK AROUND 
SETTLE DOWN INTO THE PEACE WE MAKE
THAT WE'LL NEVER GET UNLESS WE TAKE

THE BEST OF DAYS

Written by: J.R HILTON, May 2016

I remember the days that shone so bright
Such was my life then everything so right
Didn’t have a worry and barely a care
I had the best of times while I was there
My spirit was free as my will
Adventures, One after another, I couldn’t get my fill
I look around me now.  And wonder where it all went
It ran its course, It seen its day
Like an ancient river, Fading away

I filled my cup with soft summer nights; I lay in fields and watched the skies
So many hellos and just as many goodbyes
All the things that mattered gone, That didn’t take so long
But a lifetime has passed and a new one at last
I remember days filled with laughter
Floating down a river in the morning sun
Sitting by the fire when the day was done
Always someone to count on, Now I’m flying alone
My mates are all scattered, Far and wide
Both sides of the great divide
And faraway across the sea, on an English beach
The best days hang there just out of reach 

 I’m sure we could make it if we try
Where the sun shines, In the cool breeze from the lake
The sun shines on each moment we take
 I don’t need to tell you, change will come
The best days have all been won
I hate to say, But I think, that’s gonna be the way

In Time I Will

Written by: J.R HILTON
May 2016

Time keeps rolling, Rolling up running out
Wasted, killing.  Borrowed forgotten, Aged
Lost, slow or fast.  So much time has passed
It’s time to go, Good times they never last
No time like the present, the time is here
Is it getting near, Take time, to make time
Time you took the time.  Took time to unwind,
Time has been kind, Have you time to stay awhile
 make it all worthwhile.  Or is it time to go

Since it’s all about time, Let’s try
To make each others stand still
The more time goes on, I can’t get my fill
Spend all my time, Dreaming of you
I’d say its time well spent, Wouldn’t you
The time has come, where did it go
I still remember when it went so slow
It was standing still, I wish that was real
That’s the way I feel

More time to grow, You knew we would
Take more time to get it right
Maybe in time, we would make it alright
Times never wasted, when I’m with you
I will always have time for you
All that time that we never met
So much happened in that time
That I, can’t forget, In time I will, Wishing and waiting still
