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
