STROLLING THROUGH MY MIND

WRITTEN BY: JEFFREY ROBERT HILTON JUNE 2016

KICKING AROUND THE DIRT ON THE GROUND

STIRRING UP OLD GHOSTS AND DUST

I REMEMBER MY FATHER SAYING

I DON'T REALLY WANT YOU TO GO

BUT GO IF YOU MUST

DETERMINED AS HIM I WAS GONE

NERVOUS ENERGY RARING TO GO

WITH THE WIND IN MY WILD HAIR

AND MY THUMB HELD HIGH 

IT'S FINALLY MY TURN TO FLY

WALKING THROUGH STREETS THAT I DON'T KNOW

IS THIS THE PLACE I'M GOING

IS THIS WHERE I SHOULD STOP AND EARN MY WAY

IS THIS THE PLACE I WANT TO STAY

WEARY FROM THE ROAD

LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO REST MY HEAD

OR MAYBE I SHOULD KEEP GOING INSTEAD 

WALKING THROUGH MY THOUGHTS

STROLLING THROUGH MY MIND

BEAUTY ISN'T HARD TO FIND

IT'S ALL AROUND YOU, INSIDE YOU, IN WAITING

IN WIDE OPEN SPACES AND TIGHT LITTLE CANYONS

I FOUND MYSELF, ONE TRIP AT A TIME

COULDN'T LEAVE IT BEHIND

NOW IT'S SOMETHING I SEE WHEN I CAN

AND I'M LONG OVERDUE ONCE AGAIN

SOMETIMES CIRCUMSTANCE DRIVES A WEDGE

BETWEEN ME AND THE THINGS I LOVE

THE THINGS I NEED TO FEED MY SOUL

THE THINGS THAT GET UP AND GO

TAKE ME IN THEIR WAKE

SO I CAN FIND MYSELF AGAIN
