TIMES SWEET MELODY



TIMES SWEET MELODY

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

2018

IF YOU WERE TO ASK ME
I THINK THE TIME IS NOW
FEELINGS RIDE, ITS WHATS INSIDE
THAT TAKES ME
MOVES ME ALONG
NUDGES ME WHEN I TAKE TOO LONG

I USED TO BE A SWEET LITTLE BOY
ONE BY ONE
THE ONES I LOVED WERE GONE
LEFT BEHIND TO WONDER WHY
I HEAR THE CHURCH BELL RING
AND FROM HERE I WONDER
IF I MISSED A THING
TOO MANY GOOD DEEDS GO UNPAID
THE GOOD AND THE INNOCENT
GO TO THEIR GRAVES
A TRAIL OF SORROW
A FOREST OF REGRET
ANOTHER MEMORY TO FORGET

WHAT DOESN'T BREAK ME
WILL MAKE ME STRONGER
MAKES ME A FORCE
THINK TWICE IF YOU THINK
 YOU'D DO ME HARM 
TURN AROUND
I'VE GOT THINGS TO DO
YOURS IS NOT MY CONCERN
I WATCH THE BRIDGES
SEE THEM BURN
THE BURDEN SUCH I WALK AWAY

BORN TO TOUCH THE WILD
I FEEL LIKE I'M EXILED
BUT THE CHAINS THAT I IMAGINE 
CAN'T BE REAL
UNLIKE THESE STARS
 THAT SHINE ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
RIGHT BESIDE THE MOON

DOESN'T MATTER WHERE I LAY MY HEAD
AS LONG AS I CAN SEE THE SKY
RIGHT FROM WHERE I LIE
BUT SKIES AREN'T ALWAYS CLEAR
HEAR THE THUNDER 
THE LIGHTNING COMING NEAR
RAIN COMES AND WASHES AWAY MY FEAR
FIND THE KEY THAT UNLOCKS 
TIMES SWEET MELODY
