Smiling Moon

SMILING MOON

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

DAYS DROP OFF AND DISAPPEAR 

COULD THE END BE NEAR

WE SOARED THROUGH THE ENDLESS SKIES

WE SAILED THROUGH TROUBLED WATERS 

WE WALKED THROUGH THE DESERT

FOUGHT STORMS OF WIND AND SAND

WE SURVIVED THINGS WE NEVER PLANNED

AFTER THE CALM  THE CONFIDENCE COMES

LOOK TO THE SKY

LET IT GET INSIDE

THE DREAM NEVER DIES

OPENED YOUR EYES SO MANY TIMES

LIFE TOOK YOU AWAY

FROM THE THINGS YOU LOVE

SO MUCH BEHIND YOU, SO MUCH GONE

TOO MANY THINGS THAT COULD GO WRONG

STARS STRETCH ACROSS GALAXIES

AS FAR AS YOU CAN SEE

YOU WATCH IT PULSE AND GLOW

ENDLESSLY CHANGING INTO SOMETHING MORE

SMILING MOON SMILED AT YOU

WHATCHA GONNA DO 

YOU ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU HAD THE TIME

YOU COULD FALL BEHIND

WINE WOMEN AND SONG TO LEAD YOU ON

LEAD YOU AWAY

YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU SHOULD GO

AND THEN YOU'RE GONE

NOW YOU COME DRIFTING BACK

A BATTERED BOAT ASEA

DETERMINED TO MAKE LANDFALL

SET FOOT ON SHORE

TO START AGAIN ANOTHER CHANCE TO MAKE IT SHINE

YOU KNOW ALL YOU CAN DO IS TRY

AFTER ALL IT'S WHAT'S INSIDE

GIVE YOUR HEART GIVE YOUR SOUL

DON'T GIVE IN YA NEVER KNOW

WISH UPON A STAR

MAKE ANOTHER DREAM COME TRUE

THE DREAM NEVER DIES

IT ONLY FAILS OR FLIES

ANOTHER CHANCE TO BE

 THE GOOD CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE

YOU CAN RUN FROM TROUBLE

BUT YOU CAN'T RUN FROM DESIRE

FUEL TO THE FIRE

SEE IT BURN

IT'S OKAY TO HAVE LIVED

AS LONG AS YOU LEARNED
