DON'T KNOW HOW





DON'T KNOW HOW

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2020





ALL THE HIGHEST EXPECTATIONS

THAT NEVER CAME CLOSE TO LIFE

LIKE A SHIP BLOWN OFF COURSE

IN A STORM IN THE NIGHT

EXPOSED ON THE SHORE

NO SIGN OF THE SUN

HOW CAN I SAY WHERE I'M GOING

WHEN I DON'T KNOW WHERE I'VE BEEN

OUT OF NEED I FORGET AGAIN


THE WORLD AROUND ME

DOESN'T WANT TO KNOW

I WOULD OF GIVEN UP BY NOW

BUT THE TRUTH IS I DON'T KNOW HOW

SOMETIMES I'M NOT IN MY MIND

BUT OTHERWISE I'M FINE

THE THINGS I CAN DO WITHOUT

STILL TRY TO CALL ME OUT

SOMETIMES ITS A SHOUT


YOU CAN ONLY HOLD ON SO LONG

BEFORE YOU LOSE YOUR GRIP

YOU CAN ONLY WALK ON ICE SO LONG

THEN YOU'RE GONNA SLIP

SOMETIMES YA JUST HAVE TO LET GO

YA CAN'T BE ALRIGHT ALL THE TIME

CAUGHT BETWEEN THE GLOW AND THE SUBLIME

JUST A LITTLE GRACE

ALL THESE THINGS I FACE

CROWD AROUND ME UNTIL I CAN'T BREATHE

I BACK OFF AND LEAVE


UP AHEAD THERE'S BETTER DAYS

I'VE YET TO SEE

I HOPE AT LEAST SOME OF THEM

BELONG TO ME

BELIEVE ME I KNOW ITS TIME

THE SAME OLD SONGS BEEN PLAYING

OVER FOR TOO LONG

TURNING IN THE WIND

GODSPEED A MEANS TO AN END

JUST TELL ME WHEN

SHOW ME WHERE AND I'LL BE THERE
