LOOSE MY HOLD

LOOSE MY HOLD

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2020

I CLIMBED EVERY MOUNTAIN

I COULD SEE

EACH ONE NOW A LITTLE PART OF ME

INHALED THE PETRICHOR

JUST BEFORE IT RAINED

SAT DOWN

AND WATCHED THE STORM ROLL THROUGH

THE FOREST LOCKED IN MIST

WAITING FOR THE SUN

THERE'S SO MUCH IN EVERYONE

ITS THERE TO MAKE YOU SHINE

ALL MY BEST DAYS

WERE EACH ONE I HAD

I TOOK EVERY CHANCE I COULD

NO ATTENTION TO ODDS

JUST KNEW I HAD TO TRY

I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING

I'VE NEVER SEEN

I WAS REACHING DEEP

TO BE SOMEONE I WANTED TO BE

I TASTED FREEDOM

THE WIND BLOWING THROUGH MY HAIR

THE OPEN ROAD LEADING ME AWAY

INTO THE SUN, UNDER THE STARS

THERE'S A MILLION  PLACES TO SEE

ON A BEAM OF LIGHT

I MIGHT BE LOST

BUT I'M FREE

WHEREVER I WANT TO BE

LOOSE MY HOLD

ON GOLDEN SUMMER LIGHT

LOVE SHOWS, IS THAT RIGHT

CLOSER

CLOSE THE NIGHT

DREAMING WITH YOU

HALFWAY THROUGH

I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOUR IDEALS

FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU

FOR A LITTLE WHILE

WHILE YOU DECIDE

YOU JUST STAND THERE AND SMILE

WHEN YOU COULD BE HERE

SUIT YOURSELF

BUT YOU'RE THE SAME AS ME

JUST GO AHEAD  BREAK MY HEART

SHATTER MY ILLUSIONS OF LOVE

LOOSE MY HOLD ON YOU

SOME DAY WHEN YOU LOOK BACK ON THIS

I HOPE YOU CAN SMILE

SAT DOWN MYSELF

WAITING FOR THE SUN

AND MAYBE IT WON'T COME AROUND AT ALL

SO CLOSE I SEE

SO CLOSE I SEE

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2020

ALL THE THINGS I HAVE SEEN

COME BACK TO ME

IN TIMES OF REFLECTION

A GLIMPSE INTO THE START

AND THE END

THE POSSIBLE OUTCOMES

THAT COULD OF BEEN

I DO NOT KNOW WHY ITS OVER

I MADE MY CHOICES

I OWNED THE CONSEQUENCES ALONE

 ANOTHER SONG HAPPY OR SAD

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT WELL ALONE

THE DISTANCE EARNED 

I BARELY LEARNED

THE PRICE I PAID

THE MISTAKES I MADE

WERE STEPPING STONES

THAT LED THE WAY

TO BETTER DAYS

I WONDERED IF I WOULD SEE

IF ONLY I KNEW

WHAT WAS GOOD FOR ME

I WOULD NOT HAVE TO GUESS

MAKE A MESS OF EVERYTHING I TOUCH

I SPENT TOO MUCH TIME LOOKING

FOR SOMETHING TO CHANGE ME

MAKE ME WHOLE AGAIN

FORGIVE MY TRESPASSES 

MY SINS

BECAUSE FROM WHERE I STAND

ITS WHERE I AM

ITS ALL INSIDE WAITING

A BOOK THAT IS OPEN WIDE

SOON SKIES OF BLUE

REVEAL THE TRUTH

I COULD NOT SEE

NOW EXPOSED, I SUPPOSE

EVERYTHING IS CLEAR

A THIN VENEER OF DREAMS

NOW THAT I AM SO CLOSE I SEE

WHAT THIS ALL MEANS TO ME

A PASS WAS NEVER FAR

TO FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE

GOT THIS FAR NOW WATCH ME

GO MY OWN WAY

WHISPER IN MY HEART

WHISPER IN MY HEART

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2020

ITS A LONG WAY THERE

BUT WHEN YOU TURN AROUND

ITS A LONGER WAY BACK HOME

THE MILES ROLL BY

FROM HIGH TO LOW WE GO

AND EVERY SONG WE KNEW

WE SANG 

SUNNY DAY

WE JUST DRIFT AWAY

OVER BRIDGES, THE RIVERS BELOW

MOVING FAST OR GOING SLOW

ALL THE THINGS

I MEANT TO SAY

ARE COMING FASTER NOW

I'LL TELL YOU ALL

ABOUT THEM

AS TIMES AND MILES ALLOW

I THOUGHT SOMEHOW

I ALWAYS KNEW

YOU WOULD BE THE ONE

TO STAY TO THE END

FINISH WHAT YOU'VE BEGUN

LET'S PULL OVER

TAKE A BREAK

SIT HERE BY THE LAKE

IN THE SUN

PRETEND THAT'S WHERE

WE BELONG

JUST FOR NOW

THEN WE'LL TAKE THE ROAD AGAIN

KICK IT UP A NOTCH

TO MAKE SOME TIME

YOU CAN LEAN INTO ME

PUT YOUR HAND IN MINE

YOU CAN FALL ASLEEP

AND DREAM

IF YOU WANT TO

WHILE I DRIVE US HOME

ALL BECAME SILENT

AS WE DROVE INTO THE SUN

SINKING LOW JUST

ABOVE THE TREES

THE BLUE SKY FADED

AS THE DAY TURNED INTO NIGHT

ASLEEP NEXT TO ME

YOU COULD BE AN ANGEL

MEANT JUST FOR ME

I CAN HEAR YOU

WHISPER IN MY HEART

I FEEL YOU IN

ALL MY SOUL

YOU LIFT YOUR WEARY HEAD

I TELL YOU WE'RE HOME

I LEAD YOU TO THE DOOR

I ALWAYS KNEW THAT

YOU WOULD BE THE ONE

TO STAY TIL THE END

NOT TO LAY DOWN

UNTIL YOU'VE FINISHED

WHAT YOU'VE BEGUN

THIS SIDE OF THE WIND

THIS SIDE OF THE WIND

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2020

NIGHT AND DAY

ISN'T IT FUNNY

HOW PEOPLE CHANGE

COME AND GO

FROM YOUR LIFE

SOME CAUSE A RIPPLE

SOME CAUSE A WAVE

AND A WHOLE LOT OF

BROKEN HEARTS

IN THEIR WAKE

ALL YOU'VE STARTED

ALL YOU'VE ENDED

YOU GO BACK TO

START AGAIN 

YOU DISAPPEAR FROM SIGHT

SOME MIGHT SAY YOU'RE GONE

WONDER IF YOU HEAR YOUR NAME

WHISPERED ON THE STARS 

WHEREVER IT IS YOU ARE

IF I KNEW YOU

BENT YOUR EAR TO SKY

MAYBE I WOULDN'T BE

TOO CONCERENED

I'D MOVE ON

ISN'T IT FUNNY

ISN'T IT SAD

THE THINGS THAT GET

CAUGHT IN YOUR HEART

YOU CAN TELL EVERYONE

I'M LONG GONE

ON SWEET WINDS THAT BLEW

YOU THINK OF ME

I THINK ABOUT YOU

THE THINGS WE NEVER SHARED

THE TIMING WAS NEVER RIGHT

THE DAYS WERE TOO FEW

MAYBE THAT'S WHY I REMEMBER

SUMMERS CAME AND WENT

I WATCHED THEM GO

LIKE SPARKS FROM A FIRE

IN THE WIND

FUNNY ITS JUST NOT ME

ITS YOU

AND IF I WONDER

I WONDER WHY

I WONDER WHERE

I SEE YOUR SMILE

AND SOMEWHERE

THIS SIDE OF THE WIND

CATCHING UP WITH ME

THINGS WE DO

THINGS WE DO

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2020

FORGET FORGIVE

LONGER YOU LIVE

LIGHT OF HEART

WORLDS APART

THERE'S NO HAPPY

THERE'S NO SAD

ITS JUST WHAT IT IS

THAT'S ALL WE HAD

TO GO ON

WE KNEW WE COULDN'T STAY

WE WERE ON OUR WAY

SOMEWHERE NEW

THE THINGS WE DID

THE THINGS WE DO

TO FEEL LOVE AGAIN

IN OUR HEARTS

YESTERDAY

IT ALL CAME APART 

WHAT BETTER TIME

TO START AGAIN

FEEL SOMETHING MORE

THAN HEARTACHE

AND THE BITTER TASTE

OF THAT POISON 

WEIGHING DOWN

YOUR SOUL

THE CHOICE TO GO OR STAY

COMES CLEAR

YOU'RE EITHER

TOO FARAWAY

OR TOO NEAR

FACT IS

NOTHING IS THE SAME

ITS ALL CHANGED

EVERYTHING DEAR

 TO US IS GONE

ITS BEEN SO LONG

SINCE WE COULD SAY

WE FELT LIKE

WE BELONGED

WE'VE BEEN DRIFTING AWAY

FLOATING DOWN THE RIVER

WE COULDN'T STAY

WE NEVER ASKED 

FOR A FIGHT

WE NEVER ASKED

FOR WAR

BUT THEY BOTH

KEPT COMING

THERE WERE ALWAYS MORE

TAKE OUR TIME

TAKE OUR LIVES

IN DIRECTIONS

WE NEVER KNEW

ON WE GO

FOREVER CHANGED

NO ONE ESCAPES UNSCATHED 

THE VOICES FADE

BUT THE FACES REMAIN

FIND ME HERE

FIND ME THERE

I'M STILL LOST

I CAN'T GO HOME

SAVE FOR YOU AND I

SAVE FOR YOU AND I

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

MARCH 2020

I SAW DIAMONDS ON THE WATER

SET DOWN THERE BY THE SUN

I SAW THEM ALL

I LOOKED AT EVERY ONE

I WATCHED GENTLE WAVES

KISS THE SAND

I WATCHED THEM WITH YOU

YOU DIDN'T SPEAK

BUT MY HEART HEARD EVERY WORD

AS I'M SURE YOURS DID TO

I BELIEVE IN YOU

I BELIEVE IN ME

I BELIEVE IN US TOGETHER

AND NEVER SHALL WE FALL

NEVER WE PART AT ALL

LEAVE A SPACE

BUT DON'T LEAVE MINE

SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL

LOST TO SPEAK

LOST TO SEE

ANYONE, LOST TO ME

WE RODE OUT

TO THE END OF THE WORLD

TO LOOK OUT AT THE STARS

THEY GO ON FOREVER

SAVE FOR YOU AND I

SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE

THERE'S AN ANGEL

THAT WILL CRY 

TEARS OF SADNESS WILL FALL

LIKE DROPS OF RAIN

GIVE IT ONE MORE DAY

TO ALL BEGIN AGAIN

ROUND IT GOES TO FIND US

SAVOR EVERY MOMENT

EACH ONE A GRAIN OF SAND

IF YOU CAN'T TELL ME

HOW DEEP THIS LOVE OF YOURS

REALLY GOES

MAYBE YOU COULD SHOW ME

HOW LIKE A RIVER

IT STILL FLOWS

COMES RIGHT TO YOU

CAN YOU FEEL IT

CRYSTAL CLEAR

SURROUND YOU

KEEP YOU NEAR

AND NEVER SHALL WE FALL

IF YOU HEAR THAT RING

DON'T TAKE THAT CALL
