NEW AGAIN

Written By: J.R HILTON

2016


WHEAT KINGS COMING HOME
SO MUCH I LEFT BEHIND
BUT OH SO MUCH LEARNED
AS THE LESSONS TURNED
ONE BY ONE UNTIL THE YEARS WENT BY
ROAMING LIKE A GYPSY
WATCHING THE MOON ABOVE THE SEA
ON THE SHORE BENEATH A TREE
MY WILL ROLLING IN AND OUT
ON THE WHIMS OF TIDE

DREAM THE DREAM THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN
ALWAYS STEPS AWAY
JUST BEYOND MY REACH
THAT'S HOW IT ALWAYS SEEMS
I'M TIRED OF THE CHASE
THE AGE OLD RACE
LIVING BY THE CLOCK
YOU CAN'T EVER STOP

QUIET IS THE NIGHT
IN THE MOUNTAIN MOONLIGHT
THE AURORA FLICKERS IN THE SKY
TWO STARS GO SHOOTING BY
AND JUST TO BE FAIR
YOU KNOW I SHOULD BE THERE
STOKING THE FIRE

AND THEN, THE MORNING COMES
SUNRISE SPARKLES ON THE DEW
EVERYTHING IS OLD AGAIN
AND YET IT'S ALL NEW
I'M ON MY WAY FROM THE SHADOW OF DOUBT
THAT'S MY HAND REACHING OUT
MY HAND TOUCHING YOURS
AS YOU APPROACH DISTANT SHORES 

THERE'S SO MUCH TO SAY
BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS
SO I STARE STRAIGHT AHEAD
NOW THAT IT'S MY TURN
I'M SURE CASTLES ARE GOING TO BURN
EMPIRES WILL FALL
THE ONES THAT NEVER LET US IN AT ALL

AND WHEN THE NEW DAY GIVES WAY TO THE SUN
A NEW CHAPTER WILL BEGIN
WHERE PEACE AND GOODWILL
ABIDE TO ALL MEN
AND THE EARTH SIGHS RELIEF
AS THE GOOD GOES BACK TO GROUND
WHERE IT BELONGS
