WINGS
 
WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON
 
JULY 2016 
 
 
I HAVE WALKED THROUGH THIS WORLD ALONE 
SEASONED FROM THE COLD 
BETWEEN LOVE AND FATE THERE IS FATE
DID I CHOOSE THIS PATH I'M ON
WILL IT LEAD TO GLORY, OR WILL IT LEAD TO WRONG
ONLY FOOTSTEPS WILL TELL
 
DAYLIGHT AND DARKENED NIGHTS
 JOIN TOGETHER BLEND SO MAKING TIME FLY
BUT I STILL CAN'T SEE THE END, SO I SMILE
KNOWING THERE ARE STILL MILES TO GO
I JUST FEEL LIKE I KNOW
A LITTLE BIT OF FEELING GOOD
I WONDER, IF I SHOULD
NO REGRETS WHEN THE DAY IS DONE
MY SOULS STILL WARM FROM THE SUN
 
WITH ONLY THE MOON TO GUIDE ME I GO ON
MY SENSE OF LOYALTY IS STILL STRONG
ADVENTURE DRIVES MY HEELS
JUST TO FEEL HOW IT FEELS
I BRACED MYSELF FOR, WHAT WAS AHEAD
WHO WAS SHE, NOBODY SAID
I STOPPED FOR TEA AND SHE WALKED RIGHT BY
DIDN'T STOP WHEN I SAID HI
SO I TOOK MY TEA ALONE
 
I CLOSED MY EYES BY THE FIRES LIGHT
FOR JUST A MINUTE AND I'D BE ALRIGHT
SLEEP CAME QUICKLY, I LOST THE FIGHT
DRIFTING ON, RIDING ON A CLOUD
I DREAMED THAT I WAS FLYING, OR WAS IT A DREAM
I'M STILL TRYING OUT THESE WINGS
 
I OPEN UP MY EYES TO EARLY MORNING LIGHT
AND I NOTICE, OFF TO MY RIGHT
THERE SHE KNEELS STOKING UP MY FIRE
SHES MAKING TEA AND HANDS ONE TO ME
SHE SPEAKS SO SOFTLY, LOOKS SO LOVELY
AM I STILL DREAMING
WITH A SPARKLE IN HERE EYES
SHE SAYS NO, DRINK UP LETS GO

SUMMER DAY

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

2016-07-27


CHRYSTAL BLUE SKY
AS FAR AS I CAN SEE
SUN COMES DOWN A SUMMER DAY
SHADES OF GREEN BELOW
CAUGHT IN THE HOT SUNS GLOW
SEE THE HEAT ALREADY RISING FROM THE ROAD
THAT LEADS TO THE SHORE
THE COOL WATERS SOOTHING
EVERYONE WANTS MORE

PLANS WERE MADE IN HASTE
TO SEIZE THIS SUMMER DAY
TREASURE EVERY MINUTE
ENJOY IT IN YOUR OWN WAY
WHILE THE SUNS SHINING DOWN 
ON THIS SUMMER DAY WE'VE FOUND
SITTING IN THE PARK
OR WALKING THROUGH THE DARK WOOD WHERE IT'S COOL
ANYWHERE WE CAN PLAY AT ALL

BASEBALL GAMES AND BARBECUES
AND LOVE IN BLOOM RIGHT BESIDE THE FLOWERS
IT ALL GOES ON A SUMMER DAY
WAIT FOR ME I'LL LEAD THE WAY
BROOKS ARE BABBLING BENEATH THE TREES 
BIRDSONG FILLS THE AIR
IN SUNNY MEADOWS
ALIVE WITH BUTTERFLIES
ALL ON A SUMMER DAY

SQUEEZING EVERY DROP OF SUNSHINE
EVERY MOMENT, LATCH ON DON'T LET GO
SUN RAY SHINING DOWN, SPREADING YOUR CHEER
AS THE SUNSET DRAWS NEARER
THE DAY IS WINDING DOWN, COMING TO A CLOSE
THE SUNSETS IN THE MAKING
COLORS COMING ON, BLEEDING OFF THE PAGE
TURNING INTO BLACK OF NIGHT, SETTING THE STAGE
ALL ON THIS SUMMER DAY
EVERYONE'S STILL PLAYING, BUT NOW BENEATH THE MOON
WHY IS IT DAYS LIKE THIS, ALWAYS END TOO SOON

NEW BEST FRIEND

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

JULY 2016


MET A NEW GIRL LAST NIGHT
KIND OF ENDED MY DAY ON A BRIGHT NOTE
SHE SAID SHE'D CALL ME FOR SURE
BUT THAT CALL NEVER CAME
SOMEBODY NEW, BUT JUST MORE OF THE SAME
IT LOOKS LIKE LONELINESS IS STILL GONNA BE MY FRIEND
LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME, I'LL GET TO THE END
WITH YOU OR BY MYSELF

CHOICES AND CHANCES AT EVERY TURN
BUT SO MANY ARE CAUSE FOR CONCERN
I'M LEARNING TO WAIT, TAKE MY TIME
BUT I CAN'T SEEM TO SHAKE THIS LONELINESS OF MINE
WONDERING WHERE YOU ARE
ARE MY WISHES GETTING THROUGH
I CAN HARDLY WAIT TO PUT MY ARMS AROUND YOU
YOU CAN BE MY PRINCESS, MY FIRST SUCCESS
WHATEVER IS  IN THE STARS WILL BE BEST 

WOMAN HURRY TO MY SIDE
MY LOVE IS RISING LIKE THE TIDE FLOWS
THAT'S HOW IT IS,  THAT'S HOW IT GOES
I PROMISE YOU A NEW BEST FRIEND
TAKE MY HAND THEN STAY UNTIL THE END
WHOEVER YOU ARE MY LOVE
TAKE IT EASY ON ME
I HOPE YOU'RE THE ONE THAT WAS MEANT TO BE
TIRED OF SEARCHING ALL IN VAIN
GOING THROUGH THE MOTIONS WITH NOTHING GAINED

IT'S ALRIGHT IF THIS TAKES SOME TIME
I'D RATHER WAIT FOR YOU
THAN GET CAUGHT UP IN SOMETHING, THAT I DON'T NEED
SO I'LL DREAM OF YOU
HOPE YOU KNOW IT'S YOU THAT I'M DREAMING OF
A SKIP, A JUMP,  A SMILE
WITH HOPES WAY UP HIGH
IT'S ALL I CAN DO
TO CONTROL THESE FEELING, THAT I HAVE FOR YOU

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: My Lyrics To: Rise And Fall

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: My Lyrics To: Rise And Fall: PHOTO BY: J.R HILTON RISE AND FALL WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON JULY 2016  RISE AND FALL, YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT ALL RISE...

My Lyrics To: Rise And Fall

PHOTO BY: J.R HILTON


RISE AND FALL

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

JULY 2016 

RISE AND FALL, YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT ALL
RISE AND FALL, JUST LIKE A RIVER OR A SEA
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE IT'S FALLING ON ME
SOMETIMES YOU CAN'T TOUCH ME, LOOK AT ME GO
REACHING OUT FOR THE PRIZE
YOU SEE THAT KIND OF RISE
BUT YOU DIDN'T SEE THE FALLS I SURVIVED

RISE AND FALL, LIKE THE HEARTBEAT IN YOUR CHEST
RISE AND FALL, LIKE THE RHYTHM OF THE RAIN  
I WANT TO KEEP ON RISING, I DON'T WANT TO FALL AGAIN
BUT LIKE A KING UPON A THRONE
YOU'RE SURROUNDED BUT YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN
RISE AND FALL, LIKE THE LIGHT OF THE DAY
THE SKIES GO FROM BLUE TO GREY
AND BACK TO BLUE AGAIN

THE TEMPERATURE BEGINS TO RISE
JUST LIKE WE DO ONE AND ALL
IT ALWAYS RISES, JUST BEFORE IT FALLS
THE FEELING, THE SMELL IN THE AIR
THAT CLINGS TO YOUR SKIN
JUST BEFORE THE RAINS BEGINS
  AND YOU KNOW YOU'RE THERE 

THE RISE AND FALL OF EMPIRES PAST
THAT DIDN'T KNOW THAT THEY WOULDN'T LAST
EVERYTHING THAT RISES MUST FALL
LAWS OF NATURE THAT APPLY TO ALL
WE NEVER THINK THAT WE COULD EVER FALL THAT FAR DOWN
UNTIL YOU HAVE TO PICK YOURSELF BACK UP FROM THE GROUND

SO RISE AND FALL AND RISE AGAIN
IF THAT'S HOW IT HAS TO BE
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE IT'S FALLING IN ON ME
RISE AND FALL, YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT ALL
SOMEDAY YOU WON'T RISE AND FALL
THEY'LL BE NO MORE YOU AT ALL

My Lyrics To: Almost There

ALMOST THERE

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

JULY 2016

SITTING HERE ON MY OWN
MY MINDS SOMEWHERE FARAWAY
WHERE THE OCEAN MEETS THE SAND
I'VE ALREADY WAITED ALL I CAN
I WAS READY TO LEAVE YESTERDAY
MY HEART WAS IN IT ALL THE WAY
TIRED OF STAYING HOME, JUST YOU AND I ALONE
BEFORE WE CRASH AND BURN
THERE'S ONE THING I'VE LEARNED
YOU HAVE TO GETAWAY ONCE IN AWHILE

DON'T HOLD TIGHT, LET IT GO
IT CAN ONLY GROW, UNTIL WE GET TO GO
TRY NOT TO BE SAD, WE'RE CLOSER THAN WE'VE EVER BEEN
HOLD YOUR HEAD UP HIGH KEEP GOING
BAD LUCK HAD US SINKING LIKE A STONE
WE WERE ALL ALONE
SEEMED LIKE FOREVER
ONE BY ONE THINGS BEGAN TO TURN AROUND
I SWEAR WE'RE ALMOST THERE

I CAME SO CLOSE TO GIVING UP BUT I DIDN'T
A LOT OF THAT I'M SURE WAS YOU
KEPT ME PULLING REELING IN THE LINE
IT TOOK SUCH A LONG TIME
SEEMED LIKE THERE WAS NO END
THEN ALL AT ONCE THERE IT WAS
FINALLY PULLED IN THE END
AND NOW WE WAIT MY FRIEND
FOR ALL THE GOOD THINGS COMING OUR WAY

YOU AND I WHERE THE OCEAN MEETS THE SAND
YOU COME WITH ME AS I TAKE YOUR HAND
NOW I'M FEELING LIKE I SEE US IN MY DREAMS
WHEN WE GET BACK FROM WHERE WE'VE BEEN
I SEE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIGHT
I KNOW IT WASN'T THAT BRIGHT
THE LIGHT THAT CONNECTS YOU TO ME
HOLD ON WE'RE ALMOST THERE
THE EXCITEMENTS ALMOST TOO MUCH TO BARE

My Lyrics To: Empty Silence




This is a rewrite

EMPTY SILENCE
WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON 
 WRITTEN JULY 2016 



YOU SAID YOU'D WAIT FOR ME
YOU'D BE RIGHT HERE WAITING
YOU SAID YOUR HEART WAS ONLY MINE
WERE YOU JUST BEING KIND
FILLING ME WITH EMPTY WORDS, YOU NEVER MEANT TO SAY
AND THE LETTERS I SENT YOU GOT NO REPLY
I NEVER EVEN GOT A GOODBYE
I TURNED AROUND AND YOU WERE GONE

WERE YOU BARBED WIRE DISGUISED AS LACE
I MUST OF MISREAD THAT SMILE ON YOUR FACE
AND THAT LOOK OF WANT IN YOUR EYES
MUST OF BEEN SOMETHING ELSE IN DISGUISE
WHEN I CAME BACK YOU WERE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND
I WANDERED THE EMPTY STREETS WHERE YOU LIVED
I FOUND NO CLUES I DIDN'T ALREADY HAVE 

YOU COULD OF SAVED ME HEARTACHE, YOU COULD OF SAVED ME TIME
THEY SAY YOUR NUMBERS DISCONNECTED
THERE'S NO ONE THERE
JUST AN EMPTY SILENCE
THAT ONLY YOU COULD FILL 
AND RIGHT NOW I'M WISHING YOU DID STILL
IT'S SOMETHING THAT I NEVER WOULD OF DONE TO YOU
WISHED YOU'D FELT THE SAME WAY TO

SO NAIVE, TO BELIEVE YOU WERE MINE
AND TIME COULD NOT BREAK THE SPELL
I COULDN'T SEE YOU WERE LOST TO ME
WE'D NEVER BE THE SAME
YOU WERE THE HUNTRESS, I WAS THE GAME 
YOU SPOKE IN LANGUAGE I DIDN'T YET UNDERSTAND
NOW I KNOW WHAT YOU HAD PLANNED
IT WASN'T MEANT TO LAST BUT YOU WOULDN'T SAY
YOU LET ME BELIEVE THERE WAS MORE

My Lyrics To: Thought By Now

I am currently rewriting some of my older lyrics and this is one of them.


THOUGHT BY NOW

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON 

JULY 2016


I STEPPED OUT INTO THE LIGHT
TO SEE IF I COULD MAKE THINGS RIGHT AGAIN
NO ONE NOTICED NO ONE CARED
JUST ANOTHER SOUL LAID BARE
THIS TIME IT'S ME THAT'S STANDING ON THE EDGE
THIS TIME I'M THE ONE THAT'S DOWN AND OUT
FULL OF DOUBT
ABOUT ALL THE THINGS I THOUGHT I UNDERSTOOD
STARTING OVERS NEVER EASY
I'VE BEEN THERE TIME AND TIME AGAIN
IT'S BECOMING SECOND NATURE
WALKING AWAY FROM THE WRECKAGE  
LOOK AT THE CARNAGE MY LIFE'S BECOME 
 THOUGHT BY NOW THINGS WOULD BE EASIER 
BUT IT'S GETTING HARDER EVERYDAY
I THROW MY HANDS UP IN THE AIR
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY

THOUGHT I HAD IT ALL WORKED OUT
BUT FATE CONSPIRED WITH CHANGE AGAIN
AND LEFT ME OUT HERE IN THE COLD
MY HEART TELLS ME I'M ALL ON MY OWN
THE SEEDS OF FATE HAVE ALL BEEN SOWN
AND AN ILL WINDS BLOWING MY WAY 
NOT MUCH I CAN DO OR SAY
SOMETIMES LIFE'S NOT ALWAYS FAIR 
AND WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF THERE
SOMETIMES IT HARD TO GET AWAY
GET BACK UP AND SHOW EVERYBODY
HOW YOU NEVER GIVE UP

KEEP ON GOING, KEEP ON HOPING
THERE'S BETTER THINGS AHEAD
I'M BETTER OFF TO THINK ABOUT THOSE THINGS INSTEAD 
LOOKING FOR A FOUR LEAF CLOVER
IT'S TIME THIS BAD LUCK WAS OVER
I LOOKED UP TO THE SKY AND SAID A LITTLE PRAYER
TO WHOEVER WAS LISTENING THERE
I NEEDED SOMEWHERE TO PIN MY HOPES

BEAUTIFUL WHAT YOU DO

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON
JULY 2016 


EVERYTHING I'VE SEEN
 EVERYTHING I'VE BEEN EACH YEAR TO NOW
EVERY SORROW PAST
THE ONES THAT WOULDN'T LAST
EACH HARDSHIP I'VE BEEN THROUGH
ALL THE THINGS I'VE TRIED
NONE OF IT MATTERS ANYMORE
SINCE I FOUND YOU
I AM ME BECAUSE OF IT ALL
RIGHT TO THE CORE
I FINALLY MET AN ANGEL
AND I MADE HER MINE
I TELL HER THAT I LOVE HER ALL THE TIME

WHEN I HEAR CHURCH BELLS ON A SUMMER DAY
I CAN'T HELP THINKING ABOUT US THAT WAY
IF THIS WHAT YOU NEED, I'M ALL IN
TWO PRECIOUS SOULS TOGETHER, IT'S A WIN
YOU'RE THE ONLY CONSTANT IN MY LIFE
IN THIS EVER CHANGING WORLD
IT'S BEAUTIFUL WHAT YOU DO, TO A GUY LIKE ME
THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE I'D RATHER BE
THAN IN YOUR ARMS, AND IN YOUR HEART

YOU FOLLOW ME TO SEE WHAT I'M DOING NOW
BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW, NOW THAT I'M FEELING FREE
I'M ALSO FEELING LUCKY
BUILDING A BRIDGE TO WHERE I'M GOING
I WON'T LEAVE WITHOUT YOU BESIDE ME
YOU AND I TOGETHER, AS I'M SURE IT SHOULD BE
YOU AND I SWEETEST MUSIC, GUITARS COMING THROUGH
VOICES OF ANGELS SING THE SONG
YOU AND I, COULDN'T HAVE GOT IT WRONG

BEAUTIFUL WHAT YOU DO, TO A GUY LIKE ME
NOWHERE ELSE BUT IN YOUR ARMS 
AND IN YOUR HEART
AND WHEN THE NIGHT COMES TO FIND ME
I HOPE THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS BESIDE ME
YOU AND I HAVE SO LITTLE, BUT WE HAVE SO MUCH
BEAUTIFUL WHAT YOU DO, BEAUTIFUL
BEAUTIFUL DESCRIBES YOU

New release today, My Lyrics To: WHO YOU ARE

WHO YOU ARE

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

JULY 2016

WHO ARE YOU DO YOU REALLY KNOW
UNTIL IT ALL COMES DOWN
COMES YOUR WAY SURROUNDS YOU
DRAWS YOU UP AND GNAWS YOU
THEN AND ONLY THEN
YOU'LL FIND OUT WHAT YOU'RE MADE OF  
WHO YOU ARE, WHAT YOU'RE ALL ABOUT 
UNTIL THEN IT'S JUST SPECULATION

SO MANY SUNSETS BEHIND ME
SO MANY THINGS I KNOW
SO MANY THINGS THAT I HAVE SEEN
IT JUST KEEPS ON GOING, IT NEVER STOPS
TO STOP LEARNING, IS TO BECOME, STALE AND DULL
YOU START TO LOSE YOUR EDGE YOUR SHINE
LOSE TOUCH WITH HERE AND NOW
 NOW WHO ARE YOU, DO YOU REALLY KNOW
OR ARE YOU LOCKED UP IN SOME DARK AND MYSTERIOUS PLACE
WITH A LOOK OF PUZZLEMENT ON YOUR FACE

IT WILL COME TO YOU
WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO DO DEFINES YOU
RUNAWAY OR STAY
FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS AND RESURRECT THEM IF THEY CRASH
START THEM ALL ANEW 
ARE YOU LEARNING WHO YOU ARE
HAVE YOU CAUGHT A FALLING STAR
AND SO IT BEGINS TO START
YOU KNOW YOUR PART
OF SOME BIGGER PICTURE, SOME KIND OF FIXTURE
INSIDE OR OUTSIDE OF THE FRAME

THE DIRECTION YOU TAKE DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU DO
IF YOU NEED SOMEONE TO SHOW THE WAY
YOU BETTER GET STARTED
MOVE AWAY FROM YESTERDAY
VICTORY COMES TO THE SWIFT
FANNING OUT AGAINST TRUE BLUE SKIES
CRYSTAL VISION FILLS UP MY EYES
CARRY ON KEEP ON GOING
PURE AS WATER FROM A MOUNTAIN SPRING
WITH CLARITY OF WHAT YOUR ACTIONS BRING
YOU PUSH FORWARD IN THE SUN
SO MANY THINGS THAT I HAVE SEEN
REFLECTED IN A MOUNTAIN STREAM
ARE YOU LEARNING WHO YOU ARE
