TURN THIS INTO SOMETHING GOOD

TURN THIS INTO SOMETHING GOOD

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

2018

THE TIME IT TOOK ME TO REALIZE

SO MANY THINGS

 NEVER EARNED A REACTION 

IS LOST BUT ITS LEARNT WELL

ITS NEVER ANGER THAT WINS

AN ARGUMENT OR A FIGHT

HAPPINESS IS NEVER BITTER

WHEN IT SHINES IN THE LIGHT

WHEN DAYS GROW DARK

AND YOU CAN'T SEE

DON'T YOU WORRY

THINGS CAN NEVER STAY THE SAME

THERE'S NO SENSE IN PUSHING BLAME

FOR EVERY ACTION A REACTION

BUT JUST NOT MINE

I'M NOT QUITE THERE

BUT I'M DOING FINE

THE UNIVERSAL LAWS APPLY

THEY ALWAYS HAVE

SO I DON'T KNOW WHY

I EVER THOUGHT I WAS EXEMPT

EVEN THE  BOLDEST ATTEMPTS

NEVER CHANGED A THING

I'M STILL LEARNING AS I GO

FROM THE INSIDE OUT

UNTIL I KNOW FOR SURE

BUT FOR HEAVENS SAKE

JUST HOW MUCH MORE

CAN ONE ENDURE

GOD WILLING AND HIGH WATER

I'M GONNA TURN THIS

 INTO SOMETHING GOOD

GET DOWN TO SOME

 LIVING ON HIGH 

ITS MY TURN TO TRY

JUST THINKING ABOUT ALL THOSE

PERMANENT VACATIONS 

HAS GOT ME THINKING

 THEY'RE ALL MINE

STANDING ON THIS HILL

AS FAR AS MY EYES CAN SEE

ITS ALL CLEAR SAILING

SKIES TO ETERNITY

HIGH ROAD OR LOW

JUST PICK ONE AND GO

WHO SAID YOU NEED A REASON

WHO SAID YOU'D BE A FOOL

HESITATION NEVER WON

OR BROKE A SINGLE RULE

MAYBE I'M JUST RESTLESS

BUT THAT WILL NEVER DO

WHY WAIT FOR THE WORLD

GET OUT THERE

AND TOUCH ALL THE THINGS

YOU WANT TO SEE

THERE'S NO REASON

REGRET IS  JUST MISERY
