Country Roads

COUNTRY ROADS

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2017

EYES OPEN TO THE DAWN

A HALF HOUR MORE AND I'LL BE GONE

OUT ON THE HIGHWAY, DRIVING INTO THE SUN

SWINGING NORTH ON COUNTRY ROADS 

FIELDS OF GOLD WAITING IN THE MORNING SUN

WHISPERING PINES CALLING ME

PAINTED SKY, OLD BARNS, WINDMILLS

THAT I PASS BY

INCITE A FEELING OF PEACE IN MY SOUL

IGNITE A DREAM, I CAN'T LET GO

FEELING FREE, NOBODY PULLING ME 

TO THINGS AND PLACES I DON'T WANT TO BE

MARKING TIME ON COUNTRY ROADS

OUT WHERE NOBODY KNOWS

STANDING THERE IN A MIST

NOTHING THAT I WOULDN'T RISK, TO GET HERE

OUT ON COUNTRY ROADS TO STAY

CAN'T KEEP ME AWAY

SOON AS I LEAVE I START TO MISS IT

WHAT DO I DO

OUT IN THE FIELD CONTEMPLATING

THINKING ABOUT A WAY, TO MAKE IT EVERYDAY 

EVERY NIGHT, I CAN'T LOOK AWAY

LOOKING OUT MY BACK PORCH

LOOKING AT THE MOON

LISTENING TO THE NIGHT

I CAN HARDLY HEAR A THING 

JUST ME AND YOU, COUNTRY ROAD

OUR OWN LITTLE HEAVEN, WE'LL NAME IT SHANGRA LA 

HANG A SIGN WHERE EVERYONE CAN SEE

RIGHT NEXT TO THE SIGN THAT SAYS THIS IS PRIVATE PROPERTY 

OUR SANCTUARY ON A COUNTRY ROAD

WHISPERING PINES CALLING ME  BACK HOME

WHEN I COME HOME, LEAVE ALL THAT CITY STUFF BEHIND

QUIETLY UNWIND, BENEATH A MILLION STARS

WINDMILLS, PAINTED SKY, PASSING BY

I THINK IT'S MINE, I THINK I CAN DO THIS

IGNITE A DREAM, MAKE A WISH

SEND IT AWAY

WE CAN WAIT ANOTHER DAY

FOR COUNTRY ROADS, BATHED IN SUNLIGHT

DRIVING RAIN, AND THE NORTHERN LIGHTS 

AROUND THE FIRE, BURNING BRIGHT

THE MAGIC OF THE STILLNESS 

I CAN'T LET GO

No Other Way

NO OTHER WAY

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2017

GIVE ME MORE TIME TO GET THIS RIGHT

MAYBE IF I LOOK AT IT IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT 

I'LL BETTER UNDERSTAND YOUR WAY OF THINKING

WE DON'T NEED THIS SINKING

WHEN IT'S BARELY BEGUN

I CAN STILL SMELL THE SMOKE, FROM THE STARTING GUN 

I'M GONNA HAVE MY WAY YOU'LL SEE 

NOTHING ELSE IS GONNA GET PAST ME

TO GET TO YOU

YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE GOING THROUGH THIS

MOST OF THIS WAS THRUST ON ME

I DIDN'T ASK FOR IT

BUT IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE

WOULD YOU REALLY GIVE UP THAT EASY

WHEN I'M FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE

THE ONE I PROMISED YOU

MAYBE I'M STILL PAYING MY DUES

WALKING AROUND BENEATH A BLACK CLOUD

BUT I CAN SEE IT COMING

A CLEAR SUNNY SKY

I TOLD YOU WE COULD DO THIS

ALL WE GOTTA DO IS TRY

AS LONG AS YOUR HEARTS IN IT

WE'LL BE JUST FINE

WE'LL CROSS THE LINE TOGETHER 

IT DEPENDS ON WHETHER YOU MEAN WHAT YOU SAY

THERE'S NO OTHER WAY

I'VE GOT IT ALL WORKED OUT

SO WHAT YOUR FAITH IS A LITTLE SHAKEN

IF YOU THINK I'VE GIVEN UP YOU'RE MISTAKEN

I'VE BEEN FIGHTING ALL MY LIFE

IF IT STOPPED NOW,  I'D THINK SOMETHING WAS WRONG

ANYTHING WORTHWHILE IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR

ANYTHING WORTHWHILE TAKES TIME

JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE, WAIT FOR ME

STEADY ME BEFORE I GO

TELL ME WHAT I NEED TO HEAR

JUST TELL ME WHAT I NEED TO KNOW

BEFORE I GO

TAKE THE FIGHT BACK TO THEM

FIGHT UNTIL IT'S WON

TAKE THE TIME TO GET TO KNOW ME BETTER 

THEN YOU'LL KNOW THERE'S NO OTHER WAY

I'VE GOT IT ALL WORKED OUT

NOW I'M WORKING IT IN

TRYING TO GET IT ALL BACK AGAIN

I CAN SEE THE SUN, SUN RAYS SNEAKING IN

FILLING IN THE CRACKS WITH LIGHT

CHASING AWAY THE DARKNESS

PART OF A SUM

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2017

GOLDEN MEADOWS LIE BASKING IN THE MORNING SUN

A BABBLING BROOK WINDING THROUGH THE OVERHANGING TREES 

LENDS IT'S VOICE TO THE MORN

ALL CALM AND SERENE, DAY LIKE A DREAM

NOTHING HELD BACK

GOLDEN SUN-RAYS DANCING IN THE TREES 

CASTING SHADOWS, MOVING THE LEAVES

SOMETHING OF A SYMPHONY, A REVELATION

DARK LIGHT, DAY NIGHT

NO UNCERTAINTY A CONSTANT FLOW

THE SUN THE MOON THE TIDE

DRAWING YOU INTO THIS WORLD YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN

WHILE THE SEEDS OF CHANGE TAKE HOLD

FORTUNES FROM GOLD, SUNSETS AND RINGS

THE SAND AND THE SEA, PART OF A SUM

KEEP GOING FORWARD, NO SHADOWS OF DOUBT

SOONER OR LATER, YOU'LL FIND THE WAY OUT

SOMEWHERE IN TOMORROWS LIGHT

SHINING DOWN AT YOUR FEET

PART OF EVERYTHING, YOU HAVE, AND HAVEN'T SEEN
CALL MY NAME, CAST IT ON THE BREEZE
SEND IT WITH A PRAYER, I'M ON MY KNEES

I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE
ON THE ROAD TO ENLIGHTENMENT 
FULL OF MYSTERIES AND FRAUGHT WITH PERIL
DON'T LOOK BACK, THAT'S NOT THE WAY YOU'RE GOING 
WITH THE WIND AT YOUR BACK, AND THE ROAD AT YOUR FEET
IT'S BEST IF YOU KEEP MOVING
IN CASE YOU LOSE THE MOMENTUM, THAT DRIVES YOU ON
GET TOO COMFORTABLE, WANT TO STAY BEHIND 
I THINK I'M BEGINNING TO FIND 
ALL THE LITTLE THINGS I MISSED ALONG THE WAY

ONE ANSWER FOR A THOUSAND QUESTIONS
TRUST YOUR HEART TO LEAD THE WAY
LET YOUR HEAD THINK IT'S ALL OKAY
AND THE WORDS WILL COME IN TIME
YOU'LL KNOW THEY WERE MEANT FOR YOU
LOOKING FOR A HIGHER PURPOSE, GREATER THAN THYSELF
WHO DO YOU THINKS HOLDING YOU
SHE BREATHES LIFE, SHE WEAVES MAGIC INTO DAYS
SHE'S THE LIGHT, SHE'S GOT THE ANSWERS 
PART OF A SUM, EVERYONE

COUNTRY BORN

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2017

MOONSHINE WILD, RUNNING FREE

WHOLE LIFE AHEAD OF ME

FARM STRONG, HEADSTRONG

I HAD IT GOING ON

I HAD MY FRIENDS, BUT THEY WERE FEW

BACK THEN I COULD PICK AND CHOOSE

I COULD HARDLY LOSE

SWEET LITTLE GIRL BESIDE ME

DRIVING DOWN A COUNTRY ROAD

STOPPED TO LOOK AT THE STARS

SWEET LITTLE GIRL

ALL I NEED TO TAME THIS WILD HEART

SOMEWHERE TO START

COMBINES GLEAMING IN THE MORNING SUN

MOVE ON TREMBLING WHEAT

TIP YOUR HAT, TAP YOUR FEET

COUNTRY BOY LET LOOSE IN THE WORLD

SUNNY DAYS AND FRESH CUT HAY

BIRDS OF PREY, BUTTERFLIES, COUNTRYSIDE

COUNTRY BORN MY LOVE IS STRONG

AND THE ROAD BEFORE ME LOOKS LONG AND WINDING

INTO THE MORNING SUN

SEAS OF WHEAT AND WINDMILLS ON HALLOWED GROUND

SOMETIMES IT GETS SO QUIET

YOU CAN'T HEAR A SOUND

HARD TO LEAVE BEHIND, BUT AT THE SAME TIME

NEW HORIZONS CALL

I HAVE TO SEE THEM ALL

LEAVING FOR GOOD SOUNDS SO FINAL

MOONSHINE WILD, RUNNING FREE

NO I CAN'T LOOK BACK

BUT I KNOW WHERE I'M FROM

COUNTRY BORN UNDER BLUE SKIES

THE FARTHER THE BEGINNING, THE CLOSER THE END

IT'S ALL CLEAR, ONE BY ONE, CHANCES DISAPPEAR

CLEANING THE WELL, DINNER BELL

PICKING HARVEST, TRACTORS IN THE FIELD

I CAN SEE THE DUST RISING, INTO THE SKY

AND NOW HERE TOWARDS THE END

A LITTLE WORN, BUT STILL, COUNTRY BORN

The Train

The Train

Written By J.R HILTON 

OCT. 2017


GOT TO THE STATION
AS THE TRAIN WAS PULLING AWAY
GUESS THERE'S NO HURRY, TO GET AWAY
GAZED AT ALL THE PEOPLE, COMING AND GOING
NAMELESS FACES IN A CROWD
EACH IN THEIR OWN LITTLE WORLD
IF THE WHOLE WORLD STOPPED
AND EVERYONE FROZE IN TIME
NOW WOULDN'T THAT BE SOMETHING TO FIND
WOULDN'T THAT BLOW YOUR MIND

RIDING THIS TRAIN ACROSS THE GREAT PLAINS
THE WHEAT PARTS AND LETS US BY
BIRDS OF PREDATORY NATURE, SOAR HIGH IN THE SKY
WHAT IF WE STOPPED THIS TRAIN, AND ALL GOT OUT AT ONCE
JUST FORGOT WE WERE IN A HURRY TO GET SOMEWHERE
WE ALL TOOK A LOOK AROUND RIGHT HERE 
IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
SURROUNDED BY NATURE, AND A TRAIN
WOULDN'T TAKE LONG, EVERYONE WOULD BE BACK ON AGAIN
IN A HURRY TO GET GOING
SEE IT IN THEIR FACES IT'S SHOWING

OH GET ON BOARD AND OFF WE GO
STATION TO STATION, TOWN AFTER TOWN
SOME AMAZING SCENERY GOING BY
I WATCH DREAMING, GO ON BELIEVING 
EVERYTHING I'M DOING IS RIGHT
AND THAT OLD TRAIN JUST ROLLED ON INTO THE NIGHT
TO MEET THE MIDNIGHT ON TIME
IF I GOT IT RIGHT

STARLIGHT POURING THROUGH THE WINDOWS 
THE MOON FULL AND BRIGHT
ON WE GO INTO THE NIGHT
STATION TO STATION ON THIS TRAIN 
COMING GOING BACK AGAIN
JUST A MIRROR OF YESTERDAY , THAT NEVER GOT AWAY
FIVE MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT AND THAT OLD TRAIN 
WAS PULLING INTO THE STATION
END OF THE LINE, EVERYONE DISEMBARKING 
SOME ALONE, SOME HAND IN HAND
AND LITTLE GROUPS OF TWO OR THREE
I JUST LOOK I LIKE TO SEE
PEOPLE ON THE MOVE GOING SOMEWHERE
FADING INTO THE NIGHT

When Everything Was Real

WHEN EVERYTHING WAS REAL

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2017

LOOKING BACK TO YESTERDAY

BUT IT'S NOW SO FARAWAY 

THAT I CAN HARDLY SEE

AND MY MEMORY IS FAILING ME

WHERE DID IT ALL GO

WHO SAID THE SHOW IS OVER, WE HAVE TO GO

WHAT I DIDN'T KNOW WAS, I COULDN'T GO BACK THERE  

GUESS I HAD MY FILL, HAD MY SHARE

I'M NOT SURE THAT'S RIGHT

BUT THAT'S WHAT'S COME TO LIGHT

ALL THE THINGS I LEFT BEHIND

SHOULD OF LIGHTENED UP MY LOAD 

SO WHY IS IT PULLING DOWN ON ME

I KEEP LOOKING BUT I CAN'T SEE

YESTERDAY NEVER LET ME DOWN

IT WAS ALWAYS REAL

YESTERDAY MY LIFE HAD SO MUCH MEANING

NOW IT'S CLOSE TO LEANING

TO CLOSE TO AN EMPTY FEELING

MY HAPPINESS KNEW NO BOUNDS

I WAS ON TOP

DON'T KNOW WHY THAT HAD TO STOP

AND LEAVE ME DREAMING

ALL I CAN DO IS WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW 

TO SEE WHAT IT HAS IN STORE FOR ME

UP TILL NOW I KNEW EXACTLY HOW

AND WHAT I NEEDED TO MAKE ME SMILE 

I'VE ALWAYS GONE THE EXTRA MILE

BUT IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MEAN ANYTHING AT ALL THESE DAYS

AND IF I DON'T LIVE TO SEE TOMORROW

GUESS IT WAS SWEET FOR AWHILE 

 I CAME AND WENT IN STYLE

YESTERDAY WHEN EVERYTHING WAS REAL

NOW I'M CUTTING IT CLOSE,IT'S GETTING DEEP

GOING BEYOND MY UNDERSTANDING 

A LITTLE FRIGHTENING AND TOO DEMANDING 

GIVE WAY TO STARRY SKIES

FULL OF PROMISE FULL OF HOPE

PRAY THAT I CAN COPE

GIVE ME PEACE OF MIND

ALL THE LUCK AND SATISFACTION I CAN FIND

SUNNY DAYS AND A LITTLE MORE TIME

TO SHOW YOU WHAT I CAN DO

I AM READY TO RECEIVE 

TO REVIVE COME ALIVE

TAKE IT ALL BACK, MAKE IT REAL

SOAK IT UP, YA FEEL IT

GIVING WAY TO STARRY SKIES

MOONLIT NIGHTS, AND NEW HEIGHTS

FILLED WITH NOTHING BUT JOY

I KEEP LOOKING BUT I CAN'T SEE

YESTERDAY NEVER LET ME DOWN

Ordinary Day

ORDINARY DAY

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2017

TAKE AN ORDINARY NIGHT

TURN IT BURN IT TILL IT'S BURNING BRIGHT 

STARE INTO THE FLAMES AND DREAM

SOMETHING THAT I HAVE OR HAVEN'T SEEN

THERE'S A LIST OF THINGS I WANT TO DO

ALWAYS FALLS TO THE WAYSIDE

ROLLING IN AND OUT JUST OUT OF REACH

FLOATING WITH THE TIDE

I COULD SAY IT'S BEEN HARD TO FIND 

HARD TO EXPLAIN THESE MYSTERIES

AS THEY UNWIND

THESE SHOULD BE NOTHING BUT GOLD 

MAYBE I'M GETTING TOO OLD TO CHASE RAINBOWS

THROUGH ALL THESE HIGHS AND LOWS

NO ONE KNOWS THE PAIN I GAIN

BREAKING DOWN TO BE FIXED AGAIN 

NEVER QUITE THE SAME

NOT COMPLETELY THE BLAME FOR THIS 

IT WASN'T UP TO ME

THINGS OUT OF MY CONTROL 

BACKED ME IN A CORNER AND STRIPPED ME OF MY PRIDE 

PUSHED ME OUT THE OTHER SIDE

NOW I'M FREE BUT I'M NOT FREE

ALL THIS SHIT STUCK TO ME

WHEN DOES IT END,  SO I CAN HAVE MY LIFE BACK AGAIN 

COME IN FROM THE RAIN, GET WARM AND DRY

RAISE MY EXPECTATIONS REGAIN MY PRIDE

IT'S FOR ME TOO DECIDE

I REALIZE IT'S UP TO ME

WHEN TO TAKE THE PRIZE

I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES

BUT IT'S ONLY ME THAT HAS THE ANSWERS

TURN IT BURN IT, STARE INTO THE FLAMES AND DREAM

OF THE BEST TO COME

TAKE AN ORDINARY DAY

TURN IT INTO GOLD

A MEMORY YOU CAN HOLD UP TO THE LIGHT

AND LOOK OUT THE OTHER SIDE

IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR

 IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG

I WOULDN'T ASK YOU

BUT IT'S BEEN SO LONG

SEE WHAT TOMORROW BRINGS 

ON THE WINGS OF THE NEW DAYS SUNRISE

JUST AN ORDINARY DAY

TURN IT INTO GOLD

I Remember

I REMEMBER

WRITTEN B J.R HILTON

2017

SOMETIMES I GET THINKING, ABOUT ANOTHER TIME

THAT'S SLIPPED SO FARAWAY

I REMEMBER SCHOOL  COUNTRY ROADS 

TRACTORS AND WAGONS STRAINING UNDER THEIR LOADS

MARCHING BANDS AND COUNTRY FAIRS

DAYS FILLED WITH LITTLE AND NO CARES

THE FIGHTS THE CHEERS

AND ALL OF THE DARES

I REMEMBER SUMMER VACATIONS

I REMEMBER LAKES AND SAND 

DAYS FILLED WITH SUNSHINE

FROM START TO END

I REMEMBER THE STEADY DRONE OF TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY

HOW I COULDN'T WAIT TO SEE THE WORLD

LOOKING AT THE MOON AND STARS 

THE FEELING SOMETHING BIGGER WAS OUT THERE

EXACTLY WHAT I WASN'T SURE

BUT IT WAS SOOTHING

BRINGING PEACE TO EARTH WHILE SHE'S ASLEEP

I REMEMBER RUNNING THROUGH FIELDS OF CORN

IN SECOND HAND JEANS ALREADY WORN

GOOD TIMES THAT I HAD OFFSET BY THE SAD

I REMEMBER DREAMS TOUCHING MY SOUL

THE DAY I SAID I HAD TO GO

I REMEMBER DAYS ON THE ROAD

WEST ON THE HIGHWAY AS FAR AS IT GOES

I REMEMBER SALVATION ARMY BELLS

RINGING OUT IN THE SNOWY STREETS

I REMEMBER LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO SLEEP

SHIVERING IN THE WINTER COLD

THINKING ABOUT CALIFORNIA AND COULD I MAKE IT THAT FAR

I REMEMBER HIPPIES AND GAS-TOWN

I REMEMBER HITCHHIKING EVERYWHERE I WENT  

OCEAN TIDES AND FERRY RIDES 

EXPLORING ISLANDS IN THE SUN

CASTLES THAT WERE LOST AND WON

MEMORIES SINKING DEEP INTO THE CENTURY

I REMEMBER UNTIL I CAN'T REMEMBER NO MORE

SWEET, MEMORIES

BLACK DAHLIA

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2017

THE LOVE SHE GATHERS AT HER FEET

TO FILL AN EMPTY SPACE

HER MINDS A BEAUTIFUL MESS 

IT'S ALL OVER THE PLACE

HER SECRETS ARE KEPT LOCKED AWAY

OH SHE THINKS THEY ARE SAFE

THEN PUTS THEM ON DISPLAY

SHE THINKS THE TRUTH IS OVER RATED 

IN HER WORLD OF MAKE BELIEVE

SHE RUNS FROM CHANGE

 AND WHO OR WHAT SHE CAN'T CONTROL

SHE'S VAGUE SHE'S ELUSIVE

SHE'S A MASTER AT MANIPULATION 

TO ANYONE GULLIBLE ENOUGH TO BELIEVE

SHE'LL TELL YOU ANYTHING

SHE THRIVES TO DECEIVE 

A LITTLE UNBALANCED, OUT OF CONTROL

IF SHE GETS HER HOOKS IN YOU SHE WON'T LET GO

SHE WANTS SYMPATHY , SHE CRIES POOR ME

SHE'LL POUR MISERY ON YOU UNTIL YOU DROWN

SUCH A PLEASURE TO BE AROUND

SHE'LL GIVE YOU YOUR OPINION

AND PUT YOUR SOUL IN HER PRISON

SHE'LL LIE AND CHEAT YOU

IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT HER, ON HER SIDE OF THE WALL

DOESN'T SEE THE EVIL IN IT AT ALL

SHE GATHERS MISERY

TRADES IT FOR SYMPATHY

BLACK DAHLIA, SHE'LL KILL YOUR DREAMS

YOU WON'T FEEL A THING

UNTIL YOU'RE BURIED IN YOUR SORROW

BLACK DAHLIA,  YOU'D DO WELL TO RUN THE OTHER WAY

SHE'S GOT EVIL IN HER EYES

THE DEVIL IN HER SOUL

SHE'S EVERYTHING SHE CAN BE

TO ANYONE THAT BELIEVES HER

LIGHTNING AND THUNDER

PRETTY SOON YOU'LL BE UNDER HER SPELL

SHE CAN ALWAYS TELL

SHE KNOWS WHEN TO MAKE HER MOVES

BLACK DAHLIA IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL

SHE'S GONNA OWN YOUR SOUL

WICKED TO THE FINISH, EVIL TO THE CORE

SHE'LL KILL YOUR DREAMS THEN ASK YOU

IF YOU HAVE ANYMORE

One Way Ride

J.R HILTON 2017

ONE WAY RIDE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2017

STANDING ON A HILL IN FADING SUMMER LIGHT

LOOKING OUT ACROSS THE VIEW

SKIES OF SWIRLING VIOLET AND CAYMAN BLUE

AS THE SUN GOES DOWN AND LEAVES A GLOW

THE NIGHT CREEPS IN ON ME

AS I DRINK IN THIS SERENITY

THE MOON IS STANDING WITH THE STARS

AS THE PAGE TURNS ON THE NIGHT

LIKE THE SWITCH OF A LIGHT

AND AS I PONDER AGE OLD QUESTIONS

THE UNIVERSE PROVIDES

WAY BEYOND THE SUN THE MOON, THE TIDES

THERE'S A COMFORT ONLY GAINED BY THE NIGHT

IF YOU'VE GOT IT HOLD ON TIGHT

SOMETIMES YOU CAN FIND THE ANSWERS

RIGHT THERE IN THE STARS

LIKE THE MOON I WAX AND WANE

I LOSE OR I GAIN

BUT IT NEVER STOPS IT NEVER ENDS

AS I TRAVEL THROUGH THIS CIRCLE OF LIFE

WITH TREMBLING HANDS AND FAILING EYES

IT KEEPS GOING AROUND

OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND AGAIN

IT WON'T STOP

I COULDN'T GET OFF IF I TRIED

IT'S A ONE WAY RIDE

HANG YOUR HOPES ON LUCK OR FATE

DON'T TAKE CHANCES, SIT AND WAIT

NEVER WON THE RACE

NEVER COMES CLOSE TO FIRST PLACE

WHEN I'VE HAD ENOUGH, OH IT WON'T TAKE LONG

UNTIL YOU FEEL LIKE YOU BELONG 

PULLING ME BOTH WAYS SO I CAN'T MOVE

STUCK IN TIME AND PLACE

STOPPED COLD FROM SAVING FACE

MIRED MIGHT NEED A HOOK TO SET ME FREE
