IF WE HAD TIME






WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON

2018

ONE DAY YOU WAKE UP
AND YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT THE SAME
YOU'RE SOMEONE ELSE
FROM ALL THE CHANGE
YOU'D LOOK INTO IT MORE
BUT YOU'RE GETTING SHORT OF TIME
AND PATIENCE IS WEARING THIN
A LITTLE BIT AT A TIME

YOU STAGGER IN
 WITH ALL YOUR SWAG 
BUT ITS ALWAYS THE SAME
ITS STILL A DRAG ON ME
DRIVEN TO CONQUER AND DIVIDE
I COUNT ON LIFE TO PROVIDE

MAYBE THOSE DAYS ARE PAST
 I CAN STILL TASTE
THE ADRENALINE
BUT IT NEVER LASTS
IT FADES AWAY LIKE TIME
MISSED ANOTHER CHANCE
THERE'S NO OLIVE BRANCH
NO PEACE THIS DAY

CHORUS 

A SHOT IN THE DARK
THE ARCHER MISSED HIS MARK
AND SO WE WAIT
IF WE HAD TIME
FOR GOLD AND SILVER
AND PEACE OF MIND
ELUSIVE DREAMS
ALL THAT REMAINS
CHASING LIGHT, MISTY NIGHT
A CRYSTAL MOON
WASHED BY THE CLOUDS

WE MAKE ALL KINDS OF WISHES
BUT NEVER OUT LOUD
WE TOSS WE TURN
WHEN WILL WE EVER LEARN
THE ANSWER LIES IN LETTING GO
NIGHTS DARK, DAY IS LIGHT
BUT IF NOTHING CHANGES
ITS STILL NOT ALRIGHT

I'M THE SAME, BUT I'M NOT THE SAME
I'M SOMEONE ELSE
FROM THE CONSTANT AND
NEVER ENDING CHANGE
TIME PASSES BY
FALLING LIKE SUMMER RAIN
TRYING, TRYING, TO GET INSIDE
