THE TIDE COMES WEEPING

THE TIDES COME WEEPING

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

FEB. 2019

BETWEEN BLUE WATER

AND MATCHING SKY

WITHOUT HORIZON

JUST THE SAND

AND FLOTSAM FROM THE SEA

BEYOND THE PASSAGE OF TIME

STILL IN ITS GRANDEUR

THEN THE TIDE

 COMES WEEPING

THE MAGICS SWEPT AWAY 

THE SUN PLAYS

ON THE CLOUDS

CASTING SHADOWS

 IN THE SAND 

JUST ANOTHER SOMETHING

TO SEE

WINDSWEPT LONELY

CAUGHT IN TIME

POLISHED GLASS

AND PIECES OF LINE

EVERYTHING THAT SHINES

WAITING FOR THE SUN TO FIND

DIAMONDS RIDING ON

EVERY WAVE

ABOVE ONLY SKY

SEABIRDS WING AS THEY CRY

AN EXQUISITE DAY

A PLACE TO DREAM

TAKE INSIDE MEMORY

ALL THE THINGS

YOU COULD BE

BUT YOU'RE STILL

A MYSTERY

A PEARL INSIDE A SHELL

OPEN UP AND SHINE

ISN'T THAT WHAT

YOU HAD IN MIND

ALL ALONG

THIS DAYS NEARLY GONE

FLOATING AWAY

ON THE SETTING SUN

GONE TO FIND THE STARS

WAKE UP THE MOON

THE WALLS ARE CRUMBLING

AROUND THE CASTLES

IN THE SAND

SLIPPING BACK INTO THE SEA

WON'T YOU COME TO ME

WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO BE

THE ONE

BRINGING LOVE

 THAT CAN'T LET GO

YOU DIDN'T FORGET ME

IT WASN'T A DREAM

HERE IN THE SAND

KISSED BY THE MOON

WAITING FOR YOU

TO BRING ME TO MY KNEES

MY HEART LOVES YOU

IN A MILLION WAYS

I'M NOT MYSELF

WHEN YOU'RE GONE

SO PLEASE COME

I'M WAITING

WATCHING THE STARS

AND TWO THAT I PICKED

JUST TO BE OURS

AND SOMEWHERE DEEP INSIDE

YOU'LL FIND ME

WINDSWEPT LONELY

CAUGHT IN TIME

POLISHED GLASS

AND PIECES OF LINE

BESIDE ME
