Drifting And Dreaming



DRIFTING AND DREAMING

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

2017

DRIFTING DOWN THE RIVER, IN GOLDEN SUN
WHEAT FIELDS PASS ME BY 
AS EAGLES FLY ON A MORNING SKY
I HUNKER DOWN CLOSE MY EYES 
AND LET THE RIVER TAKE ME WHERE IT GOES
AS I LIE HERE DRIFTING AND DREAMING
BENEATH A SUMMER SKY
NOT A SINGLE WORRY, NOT A SINGLE SOUL
NOT IN A HURRY TO GO

BURIED IN LONG SUMMER DAYS 
THE HOURS JUST SEEM TO DRIFT AWAY
FIND ME HIDING IN BETWEEN
SOME KIND OF BEAUTIFUL DREAM
PADDLING UNSEEN BENEATH THE OVERHANGING TREES
GLIDING SILENTLY LIGHTLY TOUCHED BY A BREEZE
FOLLOWED BY, OPEN SKY,LAND WIDE OPEN AND DRY

I STEER MY BOAT FOR THE BANK BY SOME TREES
I'M INSTANTLY FLOODED WITH MEMORIES
I KNOW THIS PLACE WELL
I SET A CAMP AND HAVE SOME TEA
AS THE SUN FALLS BEHIND THE HILLS
I KNOW I'M FREE

THE SKY TURNS OUT TO BE
FILLED WITH STARS
I SIT BY THE FIRE WRAPPED IN AWE
THE COYOTES CALL
THERE'S NO OTHER SOUND AT ALL
PEACE LIKE HEAVEN, DESOLATION, ALL ALONE
IN THIS BIG LAND
RIGHT HERE WHERE I AM, WHERE I STAND
SET ME FREE AGAIN

HEAD OF THE LINE, WHAT COMES NEXT
GIVE ME A CALL OR SEND ME A TEXT
THE PEACE HERE SEEPS INTO YOUR SOUL
HOLDS ON TIGHT, IT WON'T LET GO
ALL TOO EASY WE LOSE CONTROL
SOMETIMES WE JUST NEED A PLACE LIKE THIS
THAT WE CAN GO
WHERE QUIET LENDS ITSELF TO WORK THINGS OUT
OR TO MAKE YOU FORGET, THERE IS NEVER A DOUBT

DRIFTING DOWN THE RIVER
IN THE GOLDEN SUN
SOMETHING THAT JUST HAS TO BE DONE
DRIFTING AND DREAMING
BENEATH A SUMMER SKY
NO WORRIES NOT A SINGLE SOUL
THERE'S NO HURRY TO GO

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: Tears From Angels

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: Tears From Angels: TEARS FROM ANGELS WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON 2017 DUSK DIMS THE LIGHT IN THE ROOM UNTIL THE ONLY LIGHT I SEE IS IN YOUR EYE...

Tears From Angels



TEARS FROM ANGELS

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2017

DUSK DIMS THE LIGHT IN THE ROOM
UNTIL THE ONLY LIGHT I SEE IS IN YOUR EYES
FINGERS ENTWINED, A LINGERING KISS
YOU CAN'T TURN BACK THE HANDS OF TIME
BUT YOU MAKE IT SEEM TO STAND STILL 
YOU MAKE EACH MOMENT GLOW
BRIGHTER THAN THE LAST
THE SPELLS BEEN CAST

MOONLIGHT THROUGH THE WINDOW
DANCES THROUGH YOUR HAIR
THE FREEDOM OF THE MOMENT
WE HOLD SO DEAR
IT'S ALL CRYSTAL CLEAR
JUST TO HAVE YOU NEAR
SEE HOW THINGS COULD BE

THE RAIN BEGINS TO FALL
GENTLY ON THE WINDOW
LIKE TEARS FROM ANGELS WEEPING
KISS YOUR LIPS, KISS YOUR EYES
I HAVE TO GO, I HATE THESE GOODBYES 
DRIFTING ON THE WINDS THAT FILL
THE OTHER HALF OF MY SOUL
I'LL BE BACK BEFORE YOU KNOW I'M GONE 
I WON'T BE LONG

THE ROSES ON THIS BUSH
REMIND ME OF YOU
KISSED BY THE RAIN
BLUSH WITH NEW INNOCENCE 
WAITING FOR THE SUN
FEELS LIKE HEAVEN TASTES LIKE MORE
BEHIND THESE CLOSED DOORS
SET ME FREE
A LITTLE MYSTERY AND INTRIGUE IS WHAT I NEED
SEND YOUR LOVE TO FIND ME
LIE DOWN BESIDE ME
I NEED TO FEEL YOUR LOVE

TEARS FROM ANGELS FALLING DOWN
GENTLY AGAINST THE GLASS 
THIS TO WILL PASS US BY
MAY YOU ALWAYS FEEL MY LOVE
I KNOW HOW QUICKLY TIME
PASSES US BY
BUT I NEVER WANT YOU TO FEEL
THAT YOU DON'T NEED ME

YOU STILL MAKE EACH MOMENT GLOW
BRIGHTER THAN THE LAST
BRIGHTER THAN ALL THE DARKNESS WE HAVE PASSED
TEARS FROM AN ANGEL WEEPING
FALLING SOFTLY AGAINST THE WINDOW PANE
THEN THE LIGHTNING CAME
YOU LOOK INTO MY EYES
YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT TO SAY
YOU MOVE INTO MY ARMS
IN MY MIND AND IN MY HEART
LONG MAY WE BE TOGETHER
SHORT THE TIME WE HAVE TO SPEND APART

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: Everyone Is Selling Something

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: Everyone Is Selling Something: EVERYONE IS SELLING SOMETHING WRITTEN BY JEFFREY R HILTON 2017   I MET A GYPSY WANDERING THE VALE I MET A STORY ...

Everyone Is Selling Something



EVERYONE IS SELLING SOMETHING


WRITTEN BY JEFFREY R HILTON

2017



 I MET A GYPSY WANDERING THE VALE
I MET A STORY TELLER, HE TOLD ME A TALE
I MET THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE
SHE TOLD ME LIES
I MET A POET, HE TOLD ME SOME RHYMES 
HE READ ME POETRY AND INFORMED ME OF HIS CRIMES
I MET A SNAKE OIL SALESMAN
HE SAID I NEED THIS, IF IT'S THE LAST THING THAT I BUY
SOMETHING THAT I'VE GOT TO TRY

I MET A CLOWN BUT HE NEVER MADE ME LAUGH
HE JUST STARED AT ME WITH THOSE COLD DEAD EYES
I MET A SINGER, SHE SANG ME A SONG
TRIED TO CONVINCE ME TO COME ALONG
I MET A KILLER HE WENT TO WAR
DOESN'T MAKE HIM ANY LESS OR ANY MORE
I MET A GIRL OUT WALKING
SHE WASN'T SURE WHERE SHE WAS GOING
BUT SHE WAS GOING 
SHE DIDN'T MIND TALKING SO WE DID

I MET A TRACKER, HE READ SIGN
KNEW EXACTLY WHERE TO FIND YOU
I MET A HIPPIE DOWN AT THE BEACH
SHE TOLD ME NOTHING IS OUT OF REACH
SHE HELD OUT A CIGARETTE SAID HERE TAKE A DRAG
AS SHE ROLLED ANOTHER ONE FROM HER BAG
I MET A WIZARD, HE MADE POTIONS
AND HE CAST SPELLS
BUT HE DISAPPEARED IN A FLASH AND A PUFF OF SMOKE
LEAVING ME STANDING THERE ALONE

I MET A DOCTOR, HE SAID I WAS ILL
BUT HE HAD A CURE RIGHT THERE IN HIS HAND
A PRESCRIPTION FOR A PILL
EVERYONE IS SELLING SOMETHING 
TRYING TO CONVINCE YOU IT'S SOMETHING YOU NEED
DID COMMON SENSE GET THROWN AWAY
THINKING THIS IS ALL OKAY
I'M TUNING IT OUT, I'M TURNING AWAY

I MET A GIRL, SHE LIKES TO SHINE
SHE'S STILL HERE, SHE IS MINE
SOMEONE I HOLD DEAR
I MET MY MATCH I FEAR
I MET A BAND, THEY PLAYED ME A SET
IT TOOK ME AWAY AND I DON'T KNOW IF I'M BACK YET
I MET A FLOWER THAT I'VE NEVER SEEN
IT WAS A BEAUTY, SHAPED LIKE A STAR
I MET SOMEONE THAT I NEED
JUST STAND RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE 
DON'T GO FAR

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: Crystal Clear

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON 

2017


CRYSTAL CLEAR, THE WATER, THE DAY
MOVING SLOWLY AWAY
MORNING TURNS TO AFTERNOON
THE SUN TRADES PLACES WITH THE MOON 
THE NIGHT SEEMS SLOW
AS STARS FILL UP THE SKY
DEW LAID DOWN IN THE GRASS
WAITING FOR THE MORNING SUN
LITTLE CREATURES IN THE UNDERBRUSH
OFF TO SOMEWHERE ON THE RUN

NEW BEGINNINGS BEGIN, NEW ENDINGS END
JUST ANOTHER DAY, THE CYCLE AGAIN
CIRCLE GETTING SMALLER
AND WE'RE ALL INSIDE
CLOSE TO THE POINT OF
NO TURNING BACK THE TIDE
SITUATION CRITICAL, PLEASE INTERVENE
TAKE US FROM THIS COLLISION COURSE
KEEP OUT THE TROJAN HORSE
HE WHOM WOULD TAKE IT IN
THROW HIM OUT FOR GOOD

THIS ISN'T PRACTICE, THIS IS REAL
LET IT HEAL
THE BLUE WATERS THAT CARESS THE SAND
THE SKIES,  THE AIR WE BREATHE
LET'S MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR
TREAT HER LIKE SOMEONE OLD AND DEAR
TRUSTED TRUE AND TRIED
NOW IT'S TIME THE EARTH IS CALLING
FOR YOU TO COME ON SIDE
MAKE IT ALWAYS WHAT IT'S ALWAYS MEANT TO BE
SHINING BRIGHTLY NEAR TO GOLD
SUCH A SIGHT TO BEHOLD

JUST IMAGINE EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING CRYSTAL CLEAR
THE WATER THE LAND THE SKY
COMING DOWN, COMING NEAR 
THEN MOVING SLOWLY AWAY
IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY
YOU SHOULD KNOW
EVERY TIME WE TRY TO MOVE AHEAD
TO KEEP IT ALL TOGETHER
CRYSTAL CLEAR, WHAT DO YOU HOLD DEAR
WHAT DO YOU FEAR 
COULD YOU MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR
TO EVERYBODY HERE

THIS ISN'T PRACTICE THIS IS REAL
WE'RE FIGHTING FOR OUR VERY LIVES
WE'RE ALMOST THROUGH 
OUR TIME IS HERE
LET'S MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: ON THE WAY TO WHERE

ON THE WAY TO WHERE



ON THE WAY TO WHERE

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON  2017

HERE TODAY, ON THE WAY TO WHERE
WHAT IF TOMORROW COMES
AND YOU'RE NOT THERE
IN A FLASH, JUST LIKE LIGHTNING GOING PAST
WHO WOULD REMEMBER 
WHO WOULD CRY
WHO'S HEART WOULD BE BROKEN

KIND WORDS SELDOM HEARD, HELD BACK
MODESTY, LOST IN THE IRONY
AND WHY DO WE HOLD BACK WHAT WE FEEL 
THINK IT'S UNNECESSARY, IT'S NOT REAL
BROKEN HEARTS TAKE TIME TO HEAL
I HEAR YOU CALL MY NAME
THOUGH YOU NEVER SAID A WORD
THAT'S JUST LOVE TALKING THAT I HEARD

EVERYONE'S GOT A STORY
TRY TO PUT YOURSELF THERE
LISTEN TO WHAT THEY SHARE
WE'RE ONLY HERE FOR SO LONG THEN WE'RE GONE
TRY TO UNDERSTAND, DON'T BE SO UNKIND
UNFEELING, HEARTLESS, MAYBE YOU'LL FIND
IT'S WORTH THE WHILE
GO AN EXTRA MILE IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES

AND WHEN YOUR TIME COMES, WOULDN'T IT BE NICE
EVEN IF IT'S JUST AWHILE
PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT YOU
REMEMBERING YOU WITH A SMILE
KIND WORDS SPOKEN HERE TODAY
ON THE WAY TO WHERE

WHAT IF TOMORROW COMES 
AND YOU'RE NOT THERE
LIFE'S NOT ALWAYS FAIR
WHATEVER LIFE GIVES YOU
BE GRATEFUL FOR THE TIME
LOVE ALL YOU CAN, ALWAYS BE KIND
SHINE LIKE THE SUN
EVERY CHANCE YOU GET

SOMETIMES A LIFETIME, SEEMS LIKE TWO
SOMETIMES IT'S NOT THAT LONG
LEARN TO LOVE NOW, IT'S YOUR ONLY TIME
I'VE SEEN THE CARNAGE THAT LIFE CAN PROVIDE
I'VE SEEN IT, SPLIT AND DIVIDE
IT'S NOT A HAPPY TIME, FOR ANYONE
MAKE THE MOST OF EVERYDAY 
PUSH IT ALL THE WAY

Touching Love


TOUCHING LOVE

WRITTEN BY : J.R HILTON    2017


TOUCHING LOVE, TOUCHING ME
UP CLOSE OR FARAWAY
I CAN FEEL YOUR LOVE 
I LIKE IT, I LIKE YOU
ANY LOVE YOU MISS
I'LL SAVE IT JUST FOR YOU
I LOVE THE WAY YOU SMILE
I REACH OUT FOR YOU
BUT YOU'RE NOT THERE

I PICTURE YOU HERE WITH ME 
THE MUSIC PLAYING A SOULFUL SONG
HOLD YOU CLOSE AND TASTE YOUR LIPS
INSIDE OF A LONG KISS
I MAY SEEM FARAWAY
BUT I CAN FEEL YOU INSIDE

MY LOVE MAY SEEM FARAWAY
BUT MY DESIRE IS ON FIRE
TO FEEL YOUR TOUCH
TO LOOK INTO THOSE EYES
FEEL THE WARMTH OF YOU SOUL
YOUR BODY
TRY TO REMAIN IN CONTROL
BUT IT MIGHT SPIRAL
CHANGE INTO SOMETHING WILD

TOUCHING LOVE
YOU TOUCHED MY HEART
I FEEL YOU THINKING ABOUT ME
I SEE YOU IN MY DREAMS 
SO LOVELY THE SUN GOING DOWN IN YOUR HAIR
TOUCHING LOVE
TOUCHING ME FROM SO FARAWAY
WAITING, WONDERING
TOUCHING YOUR SKIN FROM HERE
YOU'RE NOT AS FARAWAY, AS YOU ARE NEAR

YOU ARE ON MY MIND
IT'S HARD TO THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE
DEEP IN THOUGHT
TOUCHING LOVE
YOU MIGHT BE FARAWAY
 BUT I CAN SEE YOUR PRETTY EYES 
NOW TELL ME WHAT I'M GONNA DO
NOW THAT I CAN'T SEE YOU

YOUR LOVE IS TOUCHING ME
TOUCHING YOU
FROM FARAWAY
I CAN'T HELP BUT TO PICTURE YOU HERE
TOUCHING LOVE WHEN YOU COME NEAR
TOUCHING LOVE, DRINKING YOU IN
YA YOU MIGHT BE FARAWAY
 BUT YOU COMMAND MY ATTENTION
YOU TOUCH MY HEART
YOU TOUCH MY LOVE
I CAN FEEL YOU INSIDE
TOUCHING LOVE I'M CERTAIN
WITH WINGS TO FLY
ALL THE FEELINGS INSIDE
