Sweet July




SWEET JULY

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON
JULY 2018

SITTING HERE ALL ALONE
NOBODIES HERE JUST ME
WHY DON'T YOU COME ON OVER
IF YOU'RE FREE
I'VE GOT THIS OLD BOTTLE OF WINE
I'VE BEEN DYING TO TRY
COME ON OVER
GIVE ME A REASON WHY

WE'LL SHARE A FEW LAUGHS
AND SMILES
TALK ABOUT THE THINGS WE KNOW
CATCH UP ON THE NEWS
 WE NEVER HEARD
AND WHEN THE STARS FILL THE SKY
WE'LL SIT BACK, YOU AND I
WON'T SAY A WORD
WATCH IT ALL UNFOLD

THE MOON SHINING ON 
SHIMMERING ON THE WATER
ISN'T IT SO GRAND
YOU TAKE MY HAND IN YOURS
ISN'T THIS SWEET
I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT
ALL WEEK
BUT THAT'S JUST ME
AND MY SWEET IMAGINATION
YOU'RE STILL NOT EVEN HERE
I MUST CONFESS
I HOPE YOU SAY YES
JUST DO YOUR BEST

CAN'T SAY I DON'T MISS YOU A LOT
 THIS LONELY LIFE I'M LIVING
IS ALL THAT I'VE GOT
GIRL I TRUST YOUR SOUL
AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE
ANYWHERE ELSE TO GO
NO ONE ELSE TO SEE
SAY YOU WILL, YES I'M FREE
SWEET JULY,SUMMER SKY
MEANT TO SHARE
LIKE SO MANY THINGS

WHY DO I WAKE UP
AND FIND
 THAT YOU'RE NOT THERE
WHEN ITS BLATANTLY CLEAR
YOU AND I
THE MAGIC INSIDE
NEVER REALLY, TRULY TRIED
TELL ME WHY NOT
WHAT IF WE WANTED TO TRY
WHAT IF WE FIND OUT
THAT TIME STANDS STILL
WHEN WE'RE TOGETHER

CAN'T YOU SEE
THE DIFFERENCE  THAT A DAY MAKES
CAN'T YOU SEE THE MAGIC
IN A NIGHT
CAN'T YOU SEE YOU AND I
IN TIME
ALL I SEE IS TWO HEARTS
INSIDE IT ALL THE WAY
BUT FIRST YOU'VE GOT TO GET HERE
OH I WISH I KNEW
WHAT YOU'RE GONNA DO, DEAR
SAY YOU WILL
YOU'LL SOON BE HERE
DON'T WORRY DEAR
SWEET JULY, SUMMER SKY
STARS IN THE NIGHT
WERE MEANT TO SHARE
WHY NOT THE TWO OF US
COULD YOU LOVE ME
LIKE I LOVE YOU

Lost In Time



LOST IN TIME

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

JULY 2018

I DON'T KNOW WHERE TIME GOES
YOU CAN SEE IT FLYING BY 
WHEN ITS GONE, ITS GONE
IT NEVER LINGERS ON
TAKE YOU WITH IT IF ITS TIME
WE'RE ALL RUNNING OUT
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER

ALL THE TIME, THAT I WASTED
ON LOVE THAT WASN'T REAL
I STAYED TOO LONG
I FELT MORE THAN I SHOULD
EACH TIME IT ALL CAME DOWN
LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS
TUMBLING TO THE FLOOR
TIMES UP THERE ISN'T ANYMORE  
IT WAS ALL FOR NOTHING
A FOOLISH WASTE OF TIME
JUST WISH IT WASN'T MINE

EVERYTHING TAKES TIME
SOME THINGS TAKE
 MORE THAN OTHERS
AND SOME THINGS
DON'T WORK OUT AS PLANNED
YOU WAKE UP ONE DAY
AND THINGS ARE OUT OF HAND
SO MANY DREAMS LOST IN TIME
STRUNG OUT LIKE THE STARS
ALL IN A LINE
TIME WENT OUT THE WINDOW
FLEW AWAY ON A COOL BREEZE
PRETTY AS YOU PLEASE

I PRAY I STILL HAVE TOMORROW
I HOPE I STILL HAVE TIME
TO SALVAGE WHAT'S LEFT
OF MY DREAMS
BY THE TIME YOU REALIZE
HOW PRECIOUS IS TIME
SO MUCH HAS PASSED YOU BY
THEY SAY THERE'S ALWAYS TIME
ANOTHER CHANCE TO GET IT RIGHT

HOURS TURN INTO DAYS
DAYS TURN INTO WEEKS
YEARS ROLL BY, I'VE SEEN THEM FLY
JUST BELIEVE THERE'S TIME
LOOK INTO THESE EYES
SEE THE FIRE GROWING DIM
ONCE UPON A TIME
I USED TO THINK
 THE WORLD WAS MINE
I USED TO THINK I
HAD LOTS OF TIME
TO GET THE THINGS I NEED
BOY WAS I WRONG
TIME MOVES ALONG
 LIKE WATER FLOWING
WHEN ITS GONE, ITS GONE
NO ONE EVER SAID
 IT TOOK TOO LONG
THE YEARS WENT BY TOO SLOW
WHERE DID THEY GO
LOST IN TIME
STRUNG OUT LIKE THE STARS
UP IN THE SKY
ONE DAY YOU WAKE UP
AND YOUR TIME IS NEARLY THROUGH 
YOU'RE LOST IN TIME

Celebration




CELEBRATION

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

JULY 2018

DON'T KNOW HOW I EVER STAYED
THE MUSIC NEVER EVEN STOPPED
IT STILL PLAYED
LED ME ON, TOOK ME THROUGH
WAS THAT HEAVEN LOOKING DOWN
DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS A SMILE OR A FROWN

NOTHING STRAIGHT FORWARD
NO EASY WAY
I HAD TO TAKE MY TIME
CRAWL THE LAST FEW MILES
NOBODY TO GREET ME
WITH THEIR SMILES
I STOOD UP TO TAKE A LOOK AROUND
BUT I DIDN'T LOOK BACK
AT THE WAY I CAME
CAUSE THAT'S NOT THE WAY I'M GOING
THERE'S NO WAY I GOT HERE
WITHOUT KNOWING

THIS PLACE WAS MEANT TO BE
AND OH THE FEELING OF BEING FREE
IS RAINING DOWN ON ME, FINALLY
I'M AFRAID TO CLOSE MY EYES
IN CASE THIS IS A DREAM
AND OH, THE DARKNESS I'VE SEEN
LEFT ME SEARCHING FOR THE LIGHT
THIS TIME, HEAVEN GOT IT RIGHT

HOW ABOUT A CELEBRATION TONIGHT
DON'T KNOW WHAT OR WHERE
 OR WHO I SHOULD INVITE
MAYBE ITS YOU
MAYBE IF YOU LET DOWN
YOUR GUARD LONG ENOUGH
I'LL GIVE YOU AN AUDIENCE 
AND COMPANY ENOUGH
TO LAST ALL NIGHT
I'M NEW HERE
ALL THIS IS A MYSTERY
INCLUDING YOU
THAT CAN CHANGE IN JUST A FEW HOURS

NO NEED FOR YOUR HEART TO ACHE
PUT MY ARMS AROUND YOU
AND LOOK SWEETLY ON THE STARS
AND BACK INTO YOUR EYES
SOME THINGS DESERVE A START
MORE THAN OTHERS
TAKES TWO TO KNOW
WHICH SIDE YOU'RE ON
JUST ONE TO BEGIN
GOTTA GET IT RIGHT
KEEP IT LIGHT, KEEP IT REAL
HOLD YOU CLOSE TO MY HEART
IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA BE

THE SUN CAME OUT TODAY
AND WORDS ON THE BREEZE
SAVED TO ME, FAVORED ME
EVERYTHING IN GOOD LIGHT
YOU REACHED OUT TO SAVE ME
I HELD YOU TIGHT
IN YOUR EYES
I FIND A WORLD I DIDN'T KNOW
I COULDN'T SEE
IT WAS YOU THAT 
BROUGHT THE LIGHT TO ME
TELL ME WHY NOT YOU AND I
WE CAN I WILL I DO

Goddess Of The Summer Sun



GODDESS OF THE SUMMER SUN

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

IT TOOK EVERYTHING TO GET HERE
YEARS WENT BY FAST AND SLOW
LESSONS LEARNED WERE THOROUGH
MISTAKES PAID IN FULL
WITH BROKEN HEARTS
I TRIED TO MEND
TIMES WERE HARD I WAS SAD
LOST EVERYTHING I HAD
THEN I FOUND MYSELF AGAIN
HELLO MY OLD FRIEND
WE'VE GOT THINGS TO DO
 TO GIVE IT BACK TO YOU
WATCH ME SHINE
LOOKS LIKE I'M BACK ON THE LINE

GREENS OF SUMMER
BURNING SAND
COOLING WATER
IT ALL STARTS AGAIN
YOU BOTH LOOK AT THE STARS
SURE ENOUGH A KISS A LOOK
YOU'RE NOT SURE
YOU WAIT FOR MORE
YOU DON'T WAIT LONG
DESIRE IS STRONG
I SEE YOU LOOK TO ME
TO SET US FREE

GODDESS OF THE SUMMER SUN
YOUR SPARKLE NEVER DIMS
AND EACH TIME
 I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU
THE EXCITEMENT IS REAL
CAN YOU FEEL IT
A SHIVER GOES THROUGH ME
AM I LOOKING AT MY DESTINY

ALMOST COVERED BY THE STARS
THE SKY IS BLACK AND BLUE
IS IT YOU IS IT ME IS IT TRUE
DO YOU WAKE UP
 AND SEE ME WHEN I'M NOT THERE
DO YOU SMILE AS YOU CARE
THROUGH THESE EYES 
I SEE WHAT LOOKS LIKE LOVE
I LAY MY HEAD DOWN
THE DREAM IS REAL
I TOLD HER HOW I FEEL

NOW ITS JUST LIKE YOU
WRAPPED AROUND MY LIFE
GODDESS OF THE SUMMER SUN
SUMMER DREAM NEVER GONE
TO HAVE TO HOLD
TO LOVE I'M SOLD
GODDESS OF THE SUMMER SUN
YOUR SPARKLE NEVER DIMS
BROKEN HEARTS SEEM SO FARAWAY 

DAY OR NIGHT 
I LIE BESIDE YOU
UNTIL THE END OF TIME
OR MINE
HEAVENS ALREADY HERE
WHEN YOU ARE ARE NEAR

RAINDROPS ON A ROSE

WRITTEN BY JEFFREY.R HILTON 

JULY 2018 


SHE COMES TO ME
LIKE A SUMMER BREEZE
HER SUN DRESS SHINING IN THE SUN
HER FACE ALL AGLOW
SHE SMILES ALL KNOWING
SILENT SHE LOOKS INTO MY EYES
WHISPERS IN MY EAR
EVER SWEET AND DEAR
ITS SUCH A PLEASURE
WHEN YOU ARE NEAR

WITH AN EYE TO TOMORROW
I TAKE YOU IN MY ARMS
I TOOK YOU IN MY CONFIDENCE 
I GAVE YOU 
A PLACE IN MY HEART
I'D FOLLOW THE SUN
 TO YOUR SIDE
I LOVE YOU EVERY DAY
AND TWICE EACH NIGHT
MAYBE THE WORLDS
 NOT SO BAD
MAYBE THINGS
 WILL TURN OUT RIGHT

IN THE PATH
 OF YOUR SWEEPING LOVE
INSIDE YOUR YOUR SWEET CARE
I'M AFRAID TO LOOK AWAY
SO I JUST DON'T DARE
TAKE MY HAND
TAKE MY WORD
IT DOESN'T MATTER
WHAT YOU HEARD
KNOW ONE REALLY KNOWS BUT ME

FALLING FOR YOU
LIKE RAINDROPS ON A ROSE
WHEN I THINK THE 
FALLING IS DONE
IT STARTS AGAIN
HOW COULD I EVER LOOK AWAY
WASN'T IT YOU
THAT DID ALL THAT
ANGEL FROM THE START
WHAT YOU SAW IN ME
I CAN ONLY WONDER
EARTH AND WATER
FIRE AND SKY
IT ALL COMES TOGETHER
FOR YOU AND I

I'D FOLLOW THE SUN 
TO GET TO YOUR SIDE
IT FALLS ON ME
YOUR LOVE AS MY GUIDE
RAINDROPS ON A ROSE
PRETTY RAINBOWS
ALL OF THESE THINGS
TO YOU AND I

THE WORDSMITH MILL: Won't You Stay

THE WORDSMITH MILL: Won't You Stay: WON'T YOU STAY WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON 2018 THIS DAY IS ALMOST NIGHT THE SUNS GOING DOWN  COLORS FLASHING LOUD  ...

Won't You Stay



WON'T YOU STAY

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

THIS DAY IS ALMOST NIGHT
THE SUNS GOING DOWN 
COLORS FLASHING LOUD 
CHURNING LIKE A PAINTING ON A WHEEL
THE ENERGY THE FEEL
ALMOST UNREAL
THE NEVER ENDING BEAUTY TO SHARE
NEVER FAR ALWAYS THERE

SEE BEYOND ALL YOU CAN
TO THINGS YOU CANNOT SEE
FADED AWAY
 SOMEWHERE HARD TO FIND
IT ALL HAS TO UNWIND
WHEN ITS OVER IT STARTS AGAIN
LIKE THE STARS UP IN THE SKY
I SEE THEM, BUT WHERE AM I

TIME ALWAYS CHANGING LIFE
DOESN'T MEAN ITS RIGHT
DON'T BACK AWAY
THE REAL SHOWS ABOUT TO START
WON'T YOU STAY
SO I WON'T BE ALONE
I COULD OF STAYED HOME
BUT I THOUGHT YOU'D BE HERE
ALL THE SWEETNESS THAT YOU ARE
WHENEVER YOU ARE FARAWAY 
I LOSE SOMETHING DEAR TO ME
SPARE ME, WEAR ME DOWN
HOW CAN THAT BE

IN A WORLD SO CONFUSED
I'M NOT SO EASILY AMUSED
I LIKE TO KEEP MYSELF TO MYSELF
WHENEVER I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
I SEE THE EXCEPTION
AM I LOOKING AT A REFLECTION 
A HEART JUST LIKE MINE
ON MY MIND, INSIDE MY LOVE
THE TASTE YOU LEAVE BEHIND
LEAVES ME WANTING MORE

THE NEVER ENDING BEAUTY 
WE COULD SHARE
NEVER FAR ALWAYS THERE
NOW TELL ME THAT I'M WRONG
I'LL WAIT FOR YOU I HAVE
THE LOVE I KEPT FOR YOU
WHAT'S IN A NIGHT
IF IT AIN'T GOT YOU
BY MY SIDE
JUST ANOTHER NIGHT
MOONLESS GRAY
WAITING FOR THE LIGHT
MOODY OUT OF SORTS
IT DON'T SEEM RIGHT
NEVER FEEL BLUE
WON'T YOU STAY WITH ME
AND I'LL STAY WITH YOU

Heaven Help Us



HEAVEN HELP US

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

JULY 2018

I WAKE TO FIND YOU AT THE WINDOW
GAZING AT THE STARS
BATHED IN SOFT MOONLIGHT 
YOU SLOWLY TURN TO ME
TOGETHER WE LEARN TO BE FREE 
EAGERNESS POINTS THE WAY
DESIRE LIGHTS THE FUSE 

HEAVEN HELP US
CAN YOU FIND A WAY
TO KEEP THIS BEAUTY BY MY SIDE
UNTIL THE END OF TIME
YOU COME TO ME
A SOFT LIGHT IN YOUR EYES
A LOOK I RECOGNIZE
THE NEVER ENDING MAGIC
TURN YOUR HEART ON ITS HEELS 
A LITTLE OR A LOT
I LIKE THE WAY IT FEELS

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN
 HERE AND DREAMS 
THE LINES GET BLURRED
OR SO IT WOULD SEEM 
WHEN I LEAVE YOU 
FEELS LIKE I'M WALKING
 INTO ANOTHER WORLD
BABY I HAVE TO SHOW YOU
BECAUSE WORDS DO NOT DESCRIBE
THE THINGS YOU MAKE ME FEEL INSIDE

AND AFTER EVERYTHING
THE LOVE YOU BRING
OVERFLOWS MY HEART AND SOUL
THE THINGS THAT YOU MISS
YOU SOON DISMISS
ONE BY ONE
EXCEPT FOR THE ONES
WITH FEELING DEEP INSIDE
HEAVEN HELP US IS THERE A WAY
TO LIVE THIS EVERYDAY 
FROM HERE TO DREAMS
IN ALL THE WAY

YOU AND I HAVE GOT THIS THING
ALL THE LOVE WE BRING TO IT
EVERY LITTLE BIT STILL SHINES
FOR ME FOREVER
LONGER IF WE DARE
THE LOVE WE SHARE
COULD SURELY DO THAT
TELL ME WE CAN TRY
TELL ME YOU UNDERSTAND
WHAT YOU MEAN TO ME
YOU NEVER MISS A BEAT
I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE SOMETHING MORE
THAT'S WHAT MY LOVE IS FOR
I GIVE IT ALL TO YOU
LITTLE RAIN, LOTS OF SUN
LOOKING TO THE SKY AND BACK
DEEP INTO YOUR EYES
