Every Sunrise

EVERY SUNRISE

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

BEFORE ANOTHER DAY COMES AND GOES

YOU SEE THE WAY THE SUNSET GLOWS

SEE THE COLORS RUN

THE ORANGE TO RED

THE BLUE TO VIOLET 

THEY BLEED INTO THE DUSK

THE STARS BEGIN THEIR SHOW

THE MOON IS NEW AND LOW

THE NIGHTS ALREADY MOVING SLOW

STANDING HERE WATCHING SHADOWS 

JUST ME SURROUNDED

 BY THIS SERENITY

SURE I'M LONELY, I THINK OF LOVES LOST

OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW ENOUGH

TO MOVE ALONG

I PASSED BY THE SWEETEST TIMES

LIVED THROUGH NIGHTMARES COME TO LIFE

I'VE CHASED DREAMS

 AND WATCHED THEM DISAPPEAR 

SURPRISE SURPRISE BEFORE MY EYES

BUT THE FEW I REALIZED

THE ICING ON THE CAKE

NOBODY COULD BE

 COMPLETELY SURE EVERY TIME 

KNOW WHICH ROAD TO TAKE

THE PLACES I'VE SEEN

THAT I DIDN'T MEAN TO

THE MISTAKES I MADE WERE

LESSONS I HAD TO LEARN

BELIEVE ME IT'S NOT HARD

 TO CRASH AND BURN

WHEN YOU'RE LEARNING TO FLY

EVERY SUNRISE THAT I SEE

MAKES ME FEEL GOOD INSIDE

 I SETTLE DOWN IN MY SEAT

AND WATCH THE SCENERY GO BY

SITTING HERE HALF HYPNOTIZED

SEE THE WISDOM SEE THE LOVE

IN MY EYES

HEAR THE WORDS

 THAT MY SOUL CRIES

SOOTHE ME WITH YOUR PRESENCE

DANCE WITH ME BENEATH THE STARS

I WILL DO MY BEST FOR YOU

TAKE TIME TO BREATHE

THEN TELL ME

WHERE YOU DREAM

SHOW ME THE FIELDS

YOU RAN THROUGH AS A CHILD

THE TREES THAT GAVE YOU SHADE

FROM THE SUN

THE HOUSE YOU LIVED IN

WHEN THE DAY WAS DONE

IF THERE'S A WILL

THERE'S A WAY

SHOULD I WAIT AND SEE

SHOULD MY HOPES BE HIGH

I THINK I FINALLY KNOW

HOW TO FLY
