Every Mile

EVERY MILE 

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

DECEMBER 2017

TOGETHER SIDE BY SIDE

EVERY STEP, EVERY MILE

THE JOYS WE FOUND

OUTWEIGHED THE TRIALS

THE POINT YOU KNOW

YOU CAN'T LET GO

I PASSED THAT POINT SO LONG AGO

LOOKING DEEP INTO

EACH OTHERS SOUL

NO SURPRISES

 NOTHING WE DON'T KNOW ABOUT US 

YOU'VE GOT MY BACK BABY

AND YOU KNOW I'VE GOT YOURS

WE SHARED THE SUN

WE SHARED LOVE AND WON

EVERY MILE, EACH STOP ALONG THE WAY

EVERY MINUTE, EVERY DAY

EVERY KISS, EVERY WORD YOU SAY

I HEAR YOU I'M THERE

I STILL WANT YOU

I STILL CARE 

GIVE ME YOUR SMILE 

THE ONE THAT LET'S ME KNOW 

EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT

YOU AND I, TONIGHT

SOMETIMES I JUST LIKE TO HEAR IT FROM YOU

THE SOUND OF YOUR VOICE SOOTHES MY RAGE

SMOOTHS IT OVER

TURNS IT INTO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

EVERY MILE, EACH STOP ALONG THE WAY

WOULDN'T PLAY GAMES WITH YOU

BUT WHAT I'LL DO INSTEAD IS

PROMISE YOU THE FUTURE THAT IS OURS

ALL MY TOMORROW'S, ALL MY NIGHTS

TUCKED IN BESIDE YOU

BEST FRIENDS RIGHT TO THE END 

IF I NEVER

I GOT WHAT I NEED

I'VE GOT WHAT I NEED IN YOU

LIFE GOES ON, SELDOM FAIR

BUT DON'T YOU DARE COMPLAIN

EVERYTHING SHIFTS IN TURN

NOT ALWAYS IN TIME

I'M JUST GLAD YOU FOUND MINE

TOGETHER, WHO KNOWS WHAT WE CAN DO

THINK OF SOMETHING GOOD

THINK OF SOMETHING

FOR TWO HEARTS LIKE YOURS AND MINE

LIVING ON STARDUST

AND LOVE THAT ISN'T REAL

NEVER HELD MY INTEREST 

NEVER DID APPEAL

YOU AND I WOULD KNOW HOW THAT FEELS

STAND UP LET-EM SEE YOU WAVE

I AIN'T TAKING ANY SECRETS TO MY GRAVE

LIKE A STAR THAT NEVER STOPS SHINING

BABY THAT'S YOU

THIS IS YOUR CUE

EVERY MILE...
