WHAT ABOUT GOODBYES

WHAT ABOUT GOODBYES

WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

OCTOBER 2018

DAYS FLOW JUST LIKE WATER

IN A STREAM

THE WORLD BECOMES

JUST ANOTHER LUCID DREAM

EVERYTHING COMING AT ME ALL AT ONCE

DO I EVEN OPEN UP MY EYES

TO SEE ANYMORE 

ALL I SEE IS BLUE 

LET ME SEE THE SUN AGAIN

COME ON PUSH ME THROUGH

I PRAY THE DAYS AREN'T TOO LONG

I GET BACK TO MY OLD SELF

WHERE I BELONG

ALWAYS A SMILE

A FOOT IN THE FUTURE

WHERE I DARE

CAUGHT ME IN A HARD PLACE

CAUGHT ME UNAWARE

IF IT ALL FALLS IN

WHAT ABOUT GOODBYES

WHO AND WHEN

I WON'T SEE AGAIN

MAYBE I'M GOING OUT

ON A LIMB

AND MY CHANCES

AREN'T THAT SLIM

I CAN HOPE BUT I CAN'T DENY

I DON'T WANT TO DIE

THERE'S SO MUCH HERE

 I NEED TO DO

TOO MANY THINGS

 I NEED TO SEE

I CAN'T STAND THIS WAITING

AND I DON'T LIKE MYSTERY

GIVE ME AN ANSWER 

I CAN EMBRACE

REPLACE THIS WORRIED LOOK

ON MY FACE

LET ME SEE THE CHANGES 

I CAN MAKE

I'M NOT DONE IMPROVING

STILL NOT THE BEST

THAT I CAN BE

A PRAYER I GET TO SEE

TOMORROW

SUNRISES, SUNSETS

THE WHISPER OF THE WIND

THE KISS OF THE SUN

LOVE TO GREET ME WHEN I WAKE

MY SOULS NOT READY

TO LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND

GIVE ME ONE MORE CHANCE

 TO SEE 

DAYS FLOW LIKE

 WATER IN A STREAM

WIDE OPEN SPACES

WHERE I CAN DREAM

TOO MUCH PRIDE

TO EVER HIDE

TO GO DOWN

WITHOUT A FIGHT
