Dreaming In The Sun



DREAMING IN THE SUN

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

CAUGHT ME DAYDREAMING, IN THE SUN
LAZY AFTERNOON 
DIDN'T THINK YOU'D BE HERE THIS SOON
HELP YOURSELF TO A DRINK
THEN COME AND JOIN ME
WHATEVER YOU THINK
HELP ME WATCH THE CLOUDS DRIFT BY
I'M OKAY WITH THAT, I'D BE SATISFIED

I GRABBED MY GUITAR
PLAYED A SONG TO MATCH THE DAY
SLOW AND EASY
WITH JUST A FEW FANCY CHORDS
JUST TO MAKE IT FLOW
LIKE THE RIVER DOWN BELOW
IN THE GOLDEN SUN

ON THIS LAZY AFTERNOON
CHERISH THE DAY
DAYS LIKE THIS
ALWAYS END TOO SOON
LEAVING US BENEATH THE MOON
TO WISH UPON A STAR
TO FIND THE THINGS YOU ARE
ARE ALL YOU NEED TO BE

SITTING HERE, IN MY EASY CHAIR
ON A LAZY AFTERNOON
DREAMING IN THE SUN
I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE
CAUGHT UP IN THE DAY
AND DID I HEAR YOU SAY
YOU'RE GLAD YOU CAME
AND I FEEL THE SAME
ON THIS LAZY AFTERNOON
DREAMING WITH YOU IN THE SUN

A GENTLE SUMMER BREEZE
BLOWING THROUGH THE TREES
SOFTLY STRUMMING MY GUITAR
SINGING MY SONG
TO YOU, AND NO ONE THERE
THE FLOWERS ARE ALL AGLOW
LIKE SOME MAGIC SHOW, IN THE SUN

NEVER JUST ANOTHER DAY
YOU CAME AT THE RIGHT TIME
I WAS LOOKING UP AT CLOUDS
ALMOST FELL RIGHT OFF THE WORLD
JUST DREAMING IN THE SUN
I FORGOT EVERYONE, AND EVERYTHING
I TAKE IT ALL
EVERYTHING THAT THIS DAY
HAS IN STORE
SAY YOU'LL STAY ON
JUST MAKE IT MORE

Star Machine is the lyrics to a new song I wrote


STAR MACHINE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

WILD MOUNTAINS, WILD FOREST DEEP
WIDE AWAKE, BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP
GIVE TO ME AT DAYS END
THE SLEEP OF ANGELS LEFT TO DREAM
OUTSIDE THE STAR MACHINE

I'VE COME SO FAR, I'VE FAR TO GO
TO FADE INTO THE FOREST
WHERE NO ONE KNOWS
ETERNAL SPRING, ADDING LIFE TO YEARS
DRINK THE WATER, CALM YOUR FEARS

GATHER YOURSELF, BREATHE IN THE AIR
 LEFT THE WORLD BEHIND AND I DON'T CARE
THE EARTH BENEATH MY FEET
THE SKY OUTSIDE MY DOOR
SURELY THIS IS WHAT LIFE IS FOR
 AWAY FROM ALL THE UNKINDNESS
AND EVERYTHING NOT REAL
THE LIES, THE DECEIT 
THE GENERAL FEEL

TO A WATERFALL, A RUNNING STREAM
A RUSTIC LITTLE CABIN
 HIDDEN IN THE TREES 
A BIT OF HEAVEN, CAST UPON THE BREEZE
AND WHEN THE NIGHT SKY COMES CLOSING IN
THE STARS FILL UP THE SKY
AND I CAN DREAM
 FORGET ALL THAT'S BEEN BEFORE
LOOK AT EACH DAY, AS IT COMES

WITH THE WEIGHT OF MY SORROWS
LIFTING LIKE THE CLOUDS
I'LL TAKE THIS OVER THE CROWDS
A SHEEP THAT FOLLOWS
I'LL NEVER BE
IN A WORLD I DON'T FIT IN
AND DON'T CARE TO SEE

I'LL BE, WILD AND FREE
I'LL TAKE MY CHANCES
THIS IS WHERE I WANNA BE
SO UNKIND, LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND
LEFT THERE TO DREAM
OUTSIDE THE STAR MACHINE
GIVE ME THIS, OVER THAT

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: The Ground We Gain

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: The Ground We Gain: THE GROUND WE GAIN WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON 2018 THE NIGHT SKY SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL HOLD ON A MINUTE DON'T LET GO ...

The Ground We Gain



THE GROUND WE GAIN

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

THE NIGHT SKY SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL
HOLD ON A MINUTE DON'T LET GO
WE LAID IN TWILIGHT
WATCHING THE STARS
WAITING FOR A SIGN
SEAMLESSLY ENDLESSLY
TIRELESSLY SEEKING
A MEANS A WAY
TO BE WHERE WE SHOULD BE
TO FALL UPON, THE THINGS WE NEED

THE DOORS FLUNG OPEN WIDE
WE SLOWLY WALK OUTSIDE
WE'RE FREE TO GO
AND THE RAGING FIRE
THAT BURNS WITHIN
COMES BACK TO LIFE
AND THE ROAD BEFORE US CALLS OUT
TAUNTING US TO FIND OUR WAY
LEADING US FROM DARKNESS
DELIVERING US TO THE LIGHT

THEY'LL BE NO MORE OPPOSITION
WE CAN'T PUSH ASIDE
NO SECOND CHANCES
FOR THE MACHINE THAT SPITS OUT LIES
EYES OPEN WIDE AS WE
CLOSE IN ON THE PRIZE
THEY KEPT SHIELDED FROM OUR EYES 

THE GROUND WE GAIN
WE'LL NEVER LOSE AGAIN
DEAD AND GONE
THE CHANCE TO GET ALONG
THEY'LL KEEP ON TRYING
EVIL NEVER SLEEPS
ONLY RESTS UNTIL
THE DOGS OF HELL BARK
HERALDING IN THE NIGHT

ON FORGOTTEN STRINGS
BLOWING IN THE WIND
EACH ONE ECHOES TELLS
WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE'VE BEEN
A NEW DAWN IN TIME
A SKY OF GOLD
ALL SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL

AS YOU WIPE THE DUST FROM
YOUR ANCIENT IDOL
THE GESTURE EARNS A GASP OF AWE
SEE THEM SHAKE AS WE NEAR THE TRUTH
LEAVE TO RUN AND HIDE
YOU WON'T HAVE TO WORRY
THE TRUTH IS ON OUR SIDE

Twenty Shades Of Blue



LIFE DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK OUT THE WAY YOU THOUGHT IT MIGHT AND THAT'S WHERE SONGS LIKE THIS COME FROM

TWENTY SHADES OF BLUE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

IT'S NOT YOUR IMAGINATION
THAT YOU THOUGHT YOU HEARD
YOUR NAME WHISPERED ON THE WIND
WISH I KNEW NOW
WHAT I DIDN'T KNOW THEN
WHAT I NOW KNOW IS TRUE
I WAS ILL FATED TO YOU

LIFE'S NOT ALWAYS PRETTY
SELDOM KIND
YOU GOT AHEAD, AND I FELL BEHIND
I CALLED YOUR NAME
BUT YOU WERE ALREADY GONE 
VISIONS AND DREAMS THAT
NEVER CAME TO BE
FADING LIKE
 THE LAST LIGHT OF THE DAY
AS OUR LOVE LAY
 BLEEDING IN THE SNOW
NO WAY TO STAUNCH THE FLOW

CHORUS

TWENTY SHADES OF BLUE
PAINTED IN THE SKY
I OWN THEM ALL
I CAN IDENTIFY
OR AT LEAST I TRIED
YOU COULDN'T MOVE
TO CHANGE YOUR MIND
YOU ON YOUR SIDE
ME ON MINE
HOW COULD I HAVE
 BELIEVED IN YOU
THOUGHT YOU WERE
 MY DREAM COME TRUE
TWENTY SHADES OF BLUE
PAINTED IN THE SKY
IN THE FADING LIGHT
LEFT THERE TO DIE

EXACTLY WHEN WAS IT
I BECAME
JUST ANOTHER PASSING
 THOUGHT IN YOUR MIND
I FLEW AWAY ON WINGS OF SORROW
SUDDENLY I HAD
NO PLANS FOR TOMORROW
I CAME HOME ALL ALONE
NO ONE THERE TO GREET ME
I NEVER SAW IT COMING
UNTIL I WAS GOING
YOU LEFT ME BEFORE 
I WAS EVEN GONE
NOTHING MORE TO DO
THAN HANG MY HEAD

WON'T YOU HELP ME SEE
HELP ME UNDERSTAND
 THE GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION
HELP ME FIND A PLACE TO LAND
MAYBE I WAS STILL IN SHOCK
MY MIND STILL NUMB
GOING BACK THE WAY I'D COME
LOVE WAS THERE
THEN LOVE WAS GONE
TOOK ME AWAY FROM ALL I KNEW
THEN YOU TOLD ME
OUR LOVE WAS THROUGH

I FELL FOR EVERY BIT OF IT
SURE I PLAYED MY PART
BUT ALL I GOT WAS
 A BROKEN HEART
DIG A HOLE
PLANT A TREE
DEDICATE IT TO
A LOVE THAT WILL NEVER BE
JUST TWENTY SHADES OF BLUE

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: Secret Dreams Written by J.R HILTON

GOOD DAY/ BAD DAY AS I SEE IT: Secret Dreams Written by J.R HILTON: SECRET DREAMS WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON FEBRUARY 2018 WE COME WE GO NEVER THE SAME CHANGED BY TIME AND CIRCUMSTANCE UP...

Secret Dreams Written by J.R HILTON



SECRET DREAMS

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

FEBRUARY 2018

WE COME WE GO
NEVER THE SAME
CHANGED BY TIME AND CIRCUMSTANCE
UP OR DOWN OR SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN
OBSCURE OR MAKING A SCENE
GOING TO OR RETURNING FROM
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN
I COULD SAY I'LL SEE YOU
BUT WILL I AGAIN

SHADOWS FALL WHERE THEY MAY
BUT IT TAKES A LITTLE LIGHT
CLIMB DOWN OFF YOUR HORSE
TAKE A LOOK AROUND
TAKE WHAT YOU NEED
LEAVE THE REST WHERE FOUND
DID YOU COME TO WALK
 WITH ME IN THE SUN
SEEKING A MEANS TO AN END

WHO'S THERE IN THE CRIMSON GLOW
WHEN THE COLORS BEGIN TO FLOW
WHO'S THE DREAMER LET HIM THROUGH
THERE'S NO OTHER WAY TO GO
SEE THE STARS CARESSING A PURPLE SKY
WE GOT TIRED OF THE WAITING GAME
TALKS SO CHEAP, IT'S ALL THE SAME
SEE HOW IT GOT US NOWHERE NEAR
WHERE WE SHOULD BE

CRACK OF LIGHT
THE DOORS AJAR
WE'LL GO RIGHT IN
SEE HOW FAR
WE CAN GO
SET ON TOP
OF THE WALL LIKE STONE
SOONER OR LATER
YOU'RE GONNA FALL
SOONER THE BETTER
WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO
AT ALL

THE GREED SPILLS OVER
SPELLS OUT DOOM
THE SECRET DREAMS OF ANGELS
LEFT TO LANGUISH IN THE GLOOM
BOLT OF LIGHTNING 
FLASH OF DAY IN THE NIGHT
WE'LL KEEP ON TRYING
UNTIL WE GET IT RIGHT

LET GO OF THE ILLUSION
TAKE ME TO WHAT'S REAL 
THE CLOSER I GET
THE BETTER I FEEL
I COULD OF GUESSED
YOU GET IT
SOONER OR LATER
WE ALL DO
WHEN WE'RE FINISHED
 WALKING THROUGH 
WHEN YOU REALIZED THOSE
 WERE JUST PAINTED SKIES
NOT EVEN REAL
WE'RE LIVING NOW
HOW DOES IT FEEL

Hoping You Would Find


HOPING YOU WOULD FIND

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

FEBRUARY 2018

YOU CAME OUT OF NOWHERE
LIKE YOU DROPPED IN FROM THE SKY
YOU CAME RIGHT TO ME
AND I WONDERED WHY
HOW WAS IT ME
THAT SENT YOU HERE
I CAN'T HELP THINKING
WHEN YOU'RE NEAR
YOU ARE MEANT TO BE HERE WITH ME
 HOW ELSE COULD YOU EXPLAIN
YOU'RE BEING HERE
HOW ELSE COULD YOU
EXPLAIN YOUR LOVE

SOMETIMES THIS OLD WORLD
PLAYS TRICKS THAT ARE CRUEL
I SHOULD KNOW, SO MANY TIMES
I'VE BEEN THE FOOL
I'M NOT SAYING THAT
 YOU'D DO THAT TO ME
IT'S JUST I WONDER
HOW YOU CAME TO BE
ALL I KNOW IS
NOW THAT YOU'RE HERE
I NEVER WANT YOU TO GO

SURE WE'RE BOUND
 TO HAVE OUR DIFFERENCES
BUT THAT SHOULD NEVER
DIVIDE OUR LOVE
MAKE YOU TURN AWAY
IF YOUR LOVE IS TRUE

YOU KNOW THAT WHEN YOU REACH OUT
I'LL BE THERE
IT'S SOMETHING YOU MUST HAVE KNOWN
OR YOU WOULD OF WALKED ON BY
JUST KEPT ON GOING
THERE WERE TIMES
WHEN I THOUGHT
I'D BE BETTER OFF ALONE
IT TOOK YOU TO CHANGE MY MIND
I STILL HOPE I'M WHAT
YOU WERE LOOKING FOR
HOPING YOU WOULD FIND

NOW JUST AS SURE
 AS THE RAIN WILL COME
YOUR LOVE WILL STILL BE THERE
WHEN WE GET BACK TO THE SUN
SHINING DOWN 
JUST LIKE YOU
SHINING DOWN ON ME

WHEN DARKNESS FALLS
YOU JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES
SLEEP A THOUSAND DREAMS
AND WHEN THE DAWN FINDS YOU
WAKES YOU WITH IT'S LIGHT
I'LL GREET YOU WITH A KISS
I WON'T THINK TWICE BEFORE I DO
FEEL MY LOVE GETTING STRONGER
AS THE DAYS WITH YOU GO BY
JUST LIKE THE SUMMER SUN
WAY UP IN THE SKY


 
YOU JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES

The Wild

No Picture Today
Add photo feature broken

THE WILD

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

LET'S SAY WE STOP HERE
JUST TO BE CLEAR
ABOUT THE PLACES THAT WE'VE BEEN
BEFORE WE SET OFF AGAIN
WITH THE SUN ON OUR FACES
RUNNING WITH THE WIND
PEACEFUL FEEL IT'S MORE THAN REAL
IT'S SATISFYING
BIG SKY, SO MANY STARS SHINING

MAKE ROOM FOR A BIG OLD MOON
PICK AND CHOOSE THE WAY TO GO
ASK ANYONE
THEY DON'T REALLY KNOW
TELL YOU WHAT THEY THINK YOU WANT TO HEAR
YOU KNOW THEIR LYING
WHEN THEY SAY THEY'RE ON YOUR SIDE

DRIVEN BY THE SPIRIT OF THE WOLF
MY PATH IS CLEAR
LEADS ME AWAY FROM HERE
YOU'LL NEVER KEEP ME UNDER THUMB
THE WILD STILL INSIDE ME
TOO BUSY GOING GOING SOMEWHERE
TO WORRY ABOUT WHERE I'M FROM

THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU
THIS IS WHERE WE DIFFER
THIRST DRIVES ME TO THE RIVER
WATER IS KNOWLEDGE 
WATER IS LIFE
NEVER NEED TO GIVE EXPLANATION
I'M RIGHT HERE ON STATION
SHIFTING SHAPE TO GET AWAY
FROM THE MEDIOCRE FALLOUT
THAT COMES WITH EACH DAY

THE TRAPPINGS OF SOCIETY
BROKEN AND DECAYED
WALKING AROUND LIKE ZOMBIES
WAITING TO BE TOLD
THEIR NEXT MOVE
I DON'T WANT ANY PART OF THAT
I CHOOSE TO GROW

TEARING WALLS DOWN
STONE BY STONE
JUST TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE
TAKE MY DRIVE
TAKE MY JOY
WITH ME WHEN I GO
CARRY AWAY LEAVE ME
WILD IN THE SUN

DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR POLITICAL GAINS
DON'T CARE FOR YOUR CRUEL LITTLE GAMES
LEAVE ME OUT OF YOUR EXPERIMENTS
LEAVE ME WILD
SOMEWHERE ON THE OUTSIDE
LIKE WILD HORSES ROAMING FREE
FOUR LEGGED GYPSIES
HEROES EVERY ONE
UNDERNEATH THE SKIES
IN THE RAIN OR SUN

I AM


I AM

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

FEBRUARY 2018

DARKNESS FALLS UPON THE FADING LIGHT
THE MOON STARTS TO SHOW IT'S FACE
TO ANOTHER NIGHT
THE STARS WILL FILL THE SKY
THE NIGHT BIRDS HAVE ALL FLOWN
BE STILL THE NIGHT THE SILENCE RINGS
GRATEFUL FOR THE PEACE IT BRINGS

SOFT LIKE A DREAM
WATER FLOWS DOWN THE STREAM
DANCING IN THE STARLIGHT
SHIMMERING BENEATH THE MOON
IN THE SHADOWS OF THE PINES

I AM THIS RIVER
I AM THESE TREES
I AM THE ESSENCE OF
A WARM SUMMER BREEZE
THE SWEET AIR YOU BREATHE
A THOUSAND SUNSETS 
BLOWING IN THE AFTERGLOW 
BEFORE THE DUSK

NO ONE TRICK PONY
GENUINE AND SINCERE
YOU CAN'T DENY MY PRESENCE HERE 
GO AHEAD AND TRY
IF YOU'VE LOST THE WHERE AND WHY
WHEN THE WIND STOPS
 WHISTLING THROUGH THE TREES
LEAVES THE FOREST IN SILENCE
BRING YOU TO YOUR KNEES

I AM THE CHARGED AIR BEFORE THE STORM
I'M THE PEACE THAT SETTLES DOWN
AT THE END OF DAY
THE DARKNESS DESCENDING
THE LIGHT OF LOVE
THE DISTANCE BETWEEN TWO LOVES APART
I AM THE END, I AM THE START

I AM THE NORTH WIND
I'M THE SOUTHERN CROSS
THE WHISPER YOU'RE NOT SURE YOU HEARD
THAT MAKES YOU STEP BACK IN SURPRISE
THE WILL, THE WAY 
A THOUGHT YOU CHANCED TO SAY
CARRY YOUR NEED
BARE THE WEIGHT
HELP YOURSELF TO ME
THESE THINGS THAT I AM
THESE THINGS I WILL BE
WHY NOT ME
