Slow Reflection

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016

LEAVES WERE FALLING EVERYWHERE

BLOWING IN THE WIND IN DYING DESPAIR

LIKE A SHOT TO THE HEART

SUMMERS FALLING APART

FLOWERS GO MISSING

 AS THEY DISAPPEAR BACK TO GROUND

THE SOUNDS OF THE LAST LAUGHTER

IN THE DYING SUMMER LIGHT

ECHO RETURNS TO A HOLLOW FOREST

THE MORNINGS BITTER

 PRESSES ON YOUR BONES, WITH IT'S ICY FINGERS

FROST ON THE PUMPKINS, BETTER BRING EM IN 

THIS IS THE END

THE SUN IS RETREATING, HIDING AGAIN

DARK BLUE SKIES ARE BEGGING FOR SNOW

OFF THE GEESE GO, TO CATCH UP WITH THE SUN 

SUMMERS GONE AND DONE

ALREADY A FADING MEMORY

FOOTPRINTS IN THE SNOW

LEADING TO A FROZEN WORLD

TIME OF SLOW REFLECTION, BY THE FIRELIGHT

TAKE THE MEMORIES YOU NEED AND FORGET THE REST

YOU DID OKAY, YOU DID YOUR BEST

YOU FELT THE HEARTBEAT OF THE FORESTS

BEFORE THEY WENT TO SLEEP

YOU WALKED THROUGH CANYONS, A MILE DEEP

YOU CLIMBED A MOUNTAIN AND YOU REACHED THE PEAK

ALL THIS IN THE SUMMER SUN

IT ALREADY SEEMS SO FARAWAY

ALREADY MISS THE GENTLE BREEZE

 BLOWING THROUGH THE LEAVES ON THE TREES

SUMMER COMES AND GOES AND NO ONE CARES

IF YOU CAN'T LET GO

LEFT ME STANDING IN THE SNOW

ENDLESS SUMMERS ON MY MIND

WHILE I SHIVER, I CAN ONLY DREAM

IN THESE SEASONS, THAT ARE BETWEEN

ABOUT SUMMER

WITH WORDS

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016

WORDS FLY LIKE BITS OF PAPER ON THE WIND

SOME DISAPPEARING, YOU WON'T SEE AGAIN 

SOME SLIP THROUGH THE CRACKS 

AND WATCH TIME GO BY

WORDS CAN DO SO MUCH

TEAR DOWN OR BUILD YOU UP

CALL YOU TO ACTION, OR SOOTHE YOU TO SLEEP

WORDS CAN BE SO SHALLOW, WORDS CAN BE SO DEEP

THE ONES THAT TOUCH YOUR HEART

CAN BE YOURS TO KEEP

A KIND WORD CAN TRAVEL, CAN TAKE YOU FAR

THE WORDS YOU USE, DEFINE WHO YOU ARE

A WICKED WORD IS USUALLY, BORN WITHIN DEFEAT

OR FROM THE SOULS OF MAN WITHOUT A HEART

WORDS CAN BE YOUR SAVIOR, WORDS CAN BRING YOU DOWN

RIGHT FROM THE TOP, THERE'S NO IN BETWEEN

THE WORDS THAT I MEAN

WORDS CAN SING JUST LISTEN TO THIS

WORDS CAN IMPACT YOUR SOUL

MAKE YOU SMILE OR MOVE YOU TO TEARS

WORDS ANNOUNCE YOU, AS YOU COME AND GO

OFFER YOU COMFORT, WHEN YOU'RE FEELING LOW

PEACEFUL WORDS WILL TAKE YOU FAR

CAREFULLY CHOSEN

UNDER NO ILLUSION, THE OPPOSITE IS WAR

WORDS CAN BE MEANINGLESS, IF NOT SINCERE

WORDS CAN MAKE YOU FEAR, CAN LOCK YOU UP OR SET YOU FREE

KEEP YOU FROM BEING, WHAT YOU WANT TO BE

WITH A WORD A LIFE NO MORE

THE SILENCE BEGINS TO ROAR

 WAITING FOR WORDS THAT JUST WON'T COME

ONCE SAID YOU CAN'T, REALLY TAKE THEM BACK

I HOPE THESE WORDS RING TRUE

BECAUSE WORDS CAN GET US ALL THE WAY THROUGH

WORD IS IT'S TIME, WE ALL DO

TIME WE ALL DO

My Lyrics To: Can't You See The Light

CAN'T YOU SEE THE LIGHT

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016

HOLD ON WHILE YOU SEE THE LIGHT

SOMETHING MUST BE WRONG

BECAUSE IT'S BLACK AND WHITE

WAITING FOR A COLOR CHANGE

I KNOW IT SEEMS A LITTLE STRANGE

BUT I LIKE A KALEIDOSCOPE OF COLORS

DANCING IN THE LIGHT

FLOWING FREELY, INTO NIGHT

TO JOIN UP WITH THE STARS

SHINING DOWN ON COLORS BASED IN BLUE

I SAT THERE BENEATH THE STARS

I CLOSED MY EYES I STILL COULD SEE

THE GALAXIES BEFORE ME

A DIFFERENT SKY, I HAD TO STOP AND WONDER WHY

IT WASN'T THE SAME 

WHO OR WHAT'S TO BLAME

THE ONE I SAW WAS CLEARLY DRAWN

FROM SOMEWHERE LONG AGO

NOW IT'S CAUGHT IN TIME

RIGHT THERE HANGING IN MY LIFE, FOR ME TO SEE

LIKE SOME PICTURE HANGING IN A GALLERY

RIDE THE CONSTELLATIONS 

THROUGH SPACE AND TIME IT TAKES

YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE

CAN'T YOU SEE THE LIGHT

MAYBE THIS IS ALL JUST A DREAM

MAYBE THIS IS A MOVIE ON THE SILVER SCREEN

WHAT GOES ON, THE THINGS I'VE SEEN

AND PUT TO REST

THIS ENGINE GOT ME THERE AND TOOK ME BACK AGAIN

JUST SO I COULD SEE WHERE I HAVE BEEN 

THEN ONTO YOU, WHAT DO I DO

WHEN I CAN'T GET THROUGH ANYMORE

WHAT DO I DO, IT'S ONLY YOU, IT'S ONLY YOU

DROP ME IN THE WATER

TAKE NOTE WHERE I LIE

MAKE SURE I'M FACING UP, SO I CAN SEE THE SKY

THEY MADE IT THE LIMIT AND I NEED TO KNOW WHY

BEFORE I GO SO MANY QUESTIONS

I NEED TO KNOW

SPEND YOUR TIME, LOOKING FOR THE SUN

LOOKING FOR THE STARS IN THE SKY

IT'S HARD TO COME BACK

WHEN YOU CAN'T SEE YOUR WAY

CAN'T YOU SEE THE LIGHT

THAT SHINES FOR YOU

IT'S HARD TO SAY GOODBYE

WHEN YOU'RE NOT GETTING THROUGH

My Lyrics To: THIS DAY

THIS DAY

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016

WOKE UP THIS MORNING

SUNBEAMS DANCING ACROSS THE WALLS

SPILLING INTO THE HALL

LEADING ME AWAY, INTO THIS SUMMER DAY

WISH THAT IT COULD STAY LIKE CALIFORNIA

A SUMMER STATE OF MIND, SUNNY ALL THE TIME

WE COULD GO FOR A DRIVE

OUT TO THE COUNTRYSIDE

MAYBE WE COULD CLIMB A HILL

SPREAD OUT A BLANKET AND CHILL BENEATH A TREE

DAYDREAM THE AFTERNOON AWAY

MY LOVE WHAT WOULD YOU SAY

A WHOLE DAY BEFORE US TO WILE AWAY

THIS DAY WAS GIVEN NOT TO WASTE

SWEET AS HONEY, SO TASTE GET YOUR FILL

WE'RE GONNA CLIMB THAT HILL

FROLIC IN THE SUN WHERE THE AIR IS FRESH

OH THIS DAY WILL SHINE

I PROCLAIM IT YOURS AND MINE

TAKE US ALL THE WAY THROUGH, BUT TAKE IT SLOW

AND MAKE IT LAST, MAKE IT BEAUTIFUL

THE SPELL HAS BEEN CAST

YOU AND I CAUGHT UP IN A SUMMER DAY

ONE COFFEE ONE TEA AND WE'RE ON OUR WAY

NICE TO HAVE YOU BY MY SIDE

SHARING THIS DAY, SMILING BESIDE ME

AS WE MAKE OUR GETAWAY

WHATEVER ROAD FOLLOWS THE SUN, I'LL BE THERE

A LITTLE LONGER, A LITTLE FURTHER EACH TIME

THIS DAY IS YOURS, THIS DAY IS MINE  

YOU CAN'T HELP BUT SMILE ON A DAY LIKE THIS

THIS KIND OF DAY, SHOULDN'T BE MISSED

HAPPY FEELING INSIDE OF ME

IT'S ONLY GETTING STRONGER AS IT GOES

KEEP IT LASTING LONGER I WOULD SUPPOSE  

THE COUNTRY GOING BY, ALWAYS LOOKS BETTER IN THE SUN

REACH OUT TAKE IT AND RUN

YOU NEVER KNOW IF YOU'LL GET ANOTHER ONE

My Lyrics To: Anyplace You Would Go

ANYPLACE YOU WOULD GO

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016

YOU ARE THE GOLD IN THE SUNLIGHT

THAT FALLS ON THE WATER I SEE

YOU ARE THE SWEET SUMMER RAIN

THAT FALLS FROM THE SKY

YOU ARE THE MORNING DEW GLISTENING

ON THE PETALS AS THEY CATCH THE SUN

YOU ARE THE REASON WHY

MY HEARTS BEGINNING TO MEND

JUST HAD TO LET YOU KNOW

DON'T EVER LET GO

HOLD ONTO ME CLOSELY

THIS LIFE IS LIKE IS LIKE THE OCEANS SO WIDE

AT I DON'T WANT TO BE LOST AT SEA

YOU'RE THE FULL MOON SHINING ON THE RIVER

YOU'RE A STAR IN THE SKY THAT JUST WON'T FALL

MEET ME IN THE SUN

AND TAKE ME ANYPLACE THAT YOU WOULD GO

YOU ARE THE SUNSET BURNING ALL AGLOW

YOU ARE LOVE DEFINED

WANT TO MAKE YOU ALL MINE

YOU ARE THE LIGHT THAT SHINES TO LEAD THE WAY

WAS THAT I LOVE YOU, I HEARD YOU SAY

YOU ARE THE DREAMS THAT FLOAT BY IN MY MIND

I DREAM OF YOU EVERYTIME

WAKING UP BESIDE YOU, IS IT'S OWN DREAM

ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING

I DO WITH YOU IN MIND

YOU ARE THE WATER THAT ROLLS INTO THE SHORE

YOU COME AND THEN YOU GO

LEAVE ME WANTING MORE

I CAN FEEL YOU IN THE BREEZE

BLOWING THROUGH MY HAIR

I CAN FEEL YOUR FIRE BURNING

RIGHT BESIDE ME THERE

YOU ARE THE SPACE BETWEEN LOVE AND ADMIRATION

SOME KIND OF SALVATION

YOU ARE THE LIGHT

THAT SHINES IN MY EYES

OVER THE FIELDS ON A COUNTRY MORNING

YOU MAKE ME GLAD I'M ALIVE

My Lyrics To: Steeped In Sadness

Sometimes writing sad songs just has to be done. 

Thankfully, they are not the only kind of songs I write.

STEEPED IN SADNESS

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016  

GOT MYSELF A LITTLE DOWN

SHE NEVER CAME AROUND

SITTING HERE IN SILENCE, EXCEPT FOR THIS OLD CLOCK

THE SUN IS GOING DOWN AND I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP

THINKING ABOUT THINGS, AND THEY WAY THEY ALL GO

NOW THE SUNS GONE DOWN

AND I'M SITTING HERE IN THE DARK

I CAN'T HELP IT IF I LET MYSELF SINK A BIT

CAN'T SEEM TO FIND MY WAY AROUND IT

EVEN A LITTLE BIT

STEEPED IN SADNESS, HANGING MY HEAD

A TEAR IN MY EYE WHEN I SHOULD BE SMILING INSTEAD

SOME THINGS JUST HIT MY HEART

AND THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

KEEP TRYING TO LET IT GO AND HOPE IT PASSES THROUGH

FOR NOW I'LL HAVE TO PUT UP WITH BEING SAD

AT LEAST I'M ALIVE, SEE IT 'S NOT SO BAD

I'LL LOOK FORWARD TO DAYS FILLED WITH SUNSHINE AND LOVE

THEN MAYBE I WON'T FEEL SO SAD

WHILE I WAIT, I POUR MYSELF A DRINK

HOLD IT UP HIGH, TO TOAST NO ONE THERE

JUST ME AND SOME OLD GHOSTS, SITTING IN THIS CHAIR 

I LOOK OUT THE WINDOW AND I SEE THE MOON

TRACING ACROSS THE SKYLINE

STEEPED IN SADNESS ALL ALONE AGAIN

I CAN'T HELP IT IF I SOFTLY CRY

I CAN THINK OF A HUNDRED REASONS WHY

THE LOVE I HAD WAS JUST WASTING TIME

AND WASTING SO MUCH OF MINE

SO MUCH FOR GOOD INTENTIONS 

SO MUCH FOR EVERLASTING LOVE

SHE THREW MY HEART AWAY

NOW THERE'S NO ONE AND NOTHING

 TO STOP ME FROM FALLING DOWN

NO NEW STEPS FORWARD, CAN'T GET MY FEET TO MOVE

TOO STEEPED IN SADNESS NOT TO SLIP AWAY

THIS HEART CAN'T LAST WITHOUT LOVE

PLEASE TELL ME THAT'S NOT MY FATE

FIND ME BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

SMUDGES ON TIME

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016

SOLITUDE IS HERE

BY YOURSELF IT'S ABUNDANTLY CLEAR

GIVEN A TIME TO PLAN AND DREAM

WHAT YOU'VE NEVER DONE

WHAT YOU'VE NEVER SEEN

WHERE YOU'VE NEVER BEEN

NOW IT'S COMING FAST

THESE TIMES NEVER SEEM TO LAST

IF YOU THINK YOU'RE LONELY

MAYBE YOU'RE NOT LONELY, MAYBE YOU'RE JUST FREE

THERE'S SO MANY THINGS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE

IT'S OKAY TO BE ALONE

YOU STILL HAVE TO GET BACK HOME

PEACE AND QUIETS NOT SO BAD

I ENJOYED IT WHEN IT'S ALL I HAD

YOU'RE NEVER ALONE WATCHING THE SETTING SUN

WATCHING ALL THE COLORS RUN

YOU MIGHT BE ALONE, BUT YOU'RE FREE

WHEREVER YOU ARE RIGHT NOW 

MUST BE WHERE YOU NEED TO BE

SMUDGES ON TIME, BLURRING OF THE LINES

SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO FIND YOUR WAY

THAT'S JUST HOW LIFE GOES

DON'T SPEND TOO MUCH TIME

THINKING ABOUT YOUR FATE

IT WILL BE WHAT IT WILL BE

THERE'S NO CHOOSING YOUR DESTINY

YOU CAN POINT YOURSELF IN THE DIRECTION

THAT YOU WANT TO GO

BUT IT DOESN'T GUARANTEE THAT YOU'LL GET THERE

THINGS ALONG THE WAY, MAY CHANGE YOUR DIRECTION

YOU DON'T HAVE A SAY

HOPE IS ALL WE HAVE, LEADING US FROM DARK TO LIGHT

YOU'RE NOT SO ALONE THAT YOU'RE BY YOURSELF

SOMEONES ALWAYS THERE

AND IF YOU JUST HOLD ON TIGHT

I'M SURE EVERYTHING THAT'S COMING TO YOU

WILL SURELY WORK OUT RIGHT

TOGETHER OR ALONE 

YOU STILL HAVE TO CARRY THE STONE

IF YOU'RE STRAIGHT AND TRUE

CARE ABOUT EVERYTHING YOU DO

IT MAY OR MAY NOT CONTRIBUTE TO YOUR FATE MY FRIEND

IT MAY SEND YOU BACK TO DO IT AGAIN

DON'T SAY YOU'RE LONELY, SAY YOU'RE FREE

SMUDGES ON TIME, DON'T CARE FOR A HARD LINE 

DON'T SPEND SO MUCH TIME WITH THE DETAILS

My Lyrics To: She's The Girl

She's The Girl

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2016 

DO YOU FEEL THE DRAW OF THE MOON

BEYOND ILLUSIONS WE ALL SEE

IS THERE SOMETHING INSIDE OF YOU

THAT YOU CANNOT EXPLAIN

FIND A CALMING ASPECT TO A HARD RAIN

DO YOU FIND YOU NEVER HAVE TO ASK WHICH WAY TO GO

DO PEOPLE TELL YOU THINGS

THAT YOU ALREADY KNOW

UNRAVELING MYSTERIES, YOU'RE JUST LIKE ME

YOU CAN NEVER LET IT BE

THE ONLY THING YOU CHASE IS YOUR DREAMS

HOPPING OVER COLORS OF THE RAINBOW

TRIPPING OVER STARS

SATISFIED WITH WHO YOU ARE

SHE'S THE GIRL TO GO THROUGH LIFE WITH

BETTER MAKE A PLAY

THERE'S ONLY TWO THINGS, SHE COULD EVER SAY

YOU AND I TOGETHER, AT THE SAME PLACE AND TIME

IS JUST ANOTHER SIGN

I'M MAKING ARRANGEMENTS, I'M MAKING PLANS

FOR YOU TO TAKE MY SIDE  

FOREVER SPOKEN FOR, ENLIGHTENED TOGETHER

IT'S IN THE STARS, IT'S INSIDE

ALREADY PROGRAMMED, READY TO DIVIDE

DO YOU FEEL THE THINGS I DO

THE THINGS YOU'RE FEELING, I FEEL THEM TO

SOMETIMES YOU JUST NEED SOMEBODY

TO HELP YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO

DO YOU SEE RIGHT PAST THE NEED

DO YOU SEE THE IRONY TO FEED

LOVE IS COMING, CONSCIOUSNESS IS ON THE RISE

LOVE WILL FILL THE SKIES

RAINING DOWN ON YOU

UNTIL LOVE GETS THROUGH

YOU COULDN'T STOP IT IF YOU TRIED

IT'S COMING IN JUST LIKE THE TIDE

WANT TO BE THE LOVE AT YOUR SIDE

AND I'D DIE FOR YOU, IF THAT'S WHAT I HAD TO DO
