I NEVER SAID A WORD


 

 

  I NEVER SAID A WORD


WRITTEN BY

2021



IF LIFE IS FOR LIVING

 

HOW DO WE GET SO TURNED AROUND

 

MAGIC TRAGIC

 

LUCK OF THE DRAW

 

I KNOW WHAT I SAW

 

BROKEN DREAMS

 

DISCARDED ON THE WAY

 

I NEVER SAID A WORD

 

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY

 

I HAVE KNOWN THE BOTTOM 

 

OF EACH DAY BEFORE ME

 

THE TOP BELONGED TO EVERYBODY ELSE 

 

 

DON'T THINK I DON'T KNOW

 

HOW IT CAN GO TOO FAR

 

SOMETHING OR HARDLY NOTHING AT ALL

 

FIGHT TO SURVIVE

 

FIND THE WILL

 

RAISE YOUR HEAD

 

YOU'RE STILL NOT DEAD

 

THE SUN WILL RISE TO FIND YOU

 

IN TOMORROWS DAY

 

AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT

 

SO WOULD I

 

ANYTHINGS BETTER THAN THIS

 

ITS WORTH A TRY

 

 

 

SOME DAY I'LL SEE YOU ON THE LINE

 

I NEVER SAID A WORD

 

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY 

 

I NEVER PLANNED THINGS THIS WAY

 

I NEVER FANNED THE FLAMES

 

BUT I GOT BURNT JUST THE SAME 

 

YOU PUT UP WITH IT ALL SO LONG

 

EVERY DAY ENDS THE SAME

 

ITS ALL YOU KNOW

 

SURE THEY SEEM TO COME AND GO

 

JUST A LITTLE SOMETHING

 

TO BELIEVE IN

 

HALF A CHANCE

 

IF THE HALF YOU CHOOSE COMES UP SHORT

 

THEN THERE'S ONLY TOMORROW

 

I THINK YOU'VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES

 

TO TURN IT ALL AROUND

MY HEART GOES

 

MY HEART GOES

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

 

LOOKING UP AT AN AZURE SKY

 

WATCHING TALL CLOUDS 

 

AS THEY GO BY

 

A LITTLE BIT OF SUNSHINE 

 

A LITTLE BIT OF RAIN

 

EVERYTHING

 

WHEN I SAW YOU 

 

I FELT MY HEART GO

 

SOMEWHERE NEW

 

SOME KIND OF OFFERING

 

TAKE ME UP OR TURN ME DOWN

 

LEAVE ME SMILING STILL

 

OR TURN IT ALL UPSIDE DOWN

 

 

 

WHAT COULD BE

 

JUST FOLLOW ME

 

IT'LL BE ALRIGHT

 

WE CAN WATCH THE SUN GO DOWN

 

AND IN THE DYING LIGHT

 

WE CAN FIND THE STARS

 

GIVE ME SOMETHING I CAN GO ON

 

SOME KIND OF SIGN

 

BRING YOU MORE TO LIGHT

 

MAKE IT REAL

 

TAKE MY HAND

 

LEAD ME TO YOUR HEART

 

TELL ME WHAT IT TAKES

 

TO MAKE YOU STAY

 

MAKE YOU BELIEVE IN LOVE 


WHAT STAR CAN I PUT YOUR NAME TO


SOMEWHERE IN THE NIGHT SKY


WHERE NO ONE CAN FIND YOU AND I




ITS A LONG SHOT

 

ITS A SURE THING, ITS PURE


WHEN YOU COME NEAR


MY HEART GOES SOMEWHERE NEW


YOU COULD QUIT HALFWAY IN


NEVER SEE ME AGAIN


BUT HOW WILL YOU AND I


EVER KNOW UNLESS WE TRY


SUNSHINE SHINE YOUR LIGHT


ON ME


I WANT YOU INSIDE MY HEART


AND EVERYWHERE IN BETWEEN


SEE YOU INSIDE MY EVERY DREAM



 

 

 

 


TIL DAWN

 


TIL DAWN

WATCHING THE SKY AS

 

MIDNIGHT BEGINS TO RING 

 

SLOWLY FALLING ALL AROUND ME 

 

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL THING

 

THE MAGIC BECOMES THE TWILIGHT 

 

FRAMED BY THE MOON

 

AND SOON YOU'LL COME TO JOIN ME

 

BRING THE STARS HERE TO WHERE WE LIE 

 

IT FEELS SO EASY

 

TONIGHT'S ANOTHER WIN

 

TO OWN ALL THIS TIL DAWN 


HEAVEN ARRIVED HERE

 

 THE MOMENT YOU CAME ALONG


EACH TIME YOU REVEAL


A LITTLE MORE OF YOURSELF TO ME


YOUR SECRETS ARE SAFE WITH ME


AND THE ONES YOU WANT TO KEEP


DON'T HAVE TO BE


ANYONE'S BUT YOURS




WHEN THE NIGHT BRINGS A STORM


YOU'RE STILL WELCOME


TO PASS THE TIME WITH ME


THE LOVE YOU BRING


IS NEVER WASTED


I'VE STILL GOT EVERY OUNCE

 

 RIGHT HERE STUCK IN MY HEART


SURE AS THE MILKY WAY


LOOKS DOWN AND SMILES


PLEASED AS YOU AT WHAT YOU FOUND




HERE IN THIS STARLIGHT 


I SEE THAT YOU JUST MIGHT 


SEE EVERYTHING I SEE


NEVER SEE THE LIGHT AS FADING


 HERE IN THIS STARLIGHT


I CAN SEE THAT YOU JUST MIGHT 


SEE EVERYTHING I SEE


NEVER SEE THE LIGHT AS FADING


ITS ALL HERE INSIDE


ALL PART OF THIS MAGIC TONIGHT

I WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU

 


I WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

 

YOU HARDLY START TO SHINE

 

WHEN THE SKIES GROW DARK AND GREY 

 

THE RAIN BEGINS TO FALL

 

MAYBE I SHOULDN'T MIND SO MUCH

 

AT LEAST I'M STILL HERE

 

MY HEARTS STILL STRONG

 

AND THE ROAD HAS BEEN SO LONG

 

ALL THE THINGS I LEARNED

 

SO MUCH TWICE

 

 

 

ALL THIS WAY TO YOU

 

THIS FAR TO FIND MY LOVE

 

MY PEACE OF MIND

 

MY GOOD TIME

 

ANGEL TO ME

 

MY ONLY SANITY

 

IN A CRAZY WORLD

 

I WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU

 

RIGHT THROUGH THE FLAMES

 

WITNESS ONLY TO THE STARS

 

HOW IT EVER WENT THIS FAR

 

SEEMED LIKE TIME GOT AWAY

 

DRIFTED ON A GENTLE BREATH OF WIND 

 

AWAY AND BACK AGAIN TO YOU

 

 

 

NOTHING LEFT TO DO

 

BUT LOVE YOU ALL I CAN

 

I SEE IT NOW

 

ITS THE HEAVEN IN YOU

 

IS THERE TIME TO DANCE WITH ANGELS

 

YOU CAN MAKE THE LIGHT

 

YOU CAN MAKE EVERYTHING FEEL ALRIGHT

 

THE CALM THAT WAITS INSIDE EVERY STORM

 

I JUST WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU

 

HOLD YOU CLOSE ENOUGH

 

 TO FEEL YOUR HEARTBEAT

 

ANGEL TO ME

 

MY ONLY SANITY

 

IN THIS CRAZY WORLD

 

STILL BE WITH YOU

 

WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS GONE

 

 THE SKIES ARE TORN  RIBBONS

 

OF BLACK AND BLUE

 

BUT I STILL

 

IWANT TO DANCE WITH YOU

HANG OUR LOVE

 


HANG OUR LOVE

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

I LOOKED BUT I COULDN'T SEE

 

HOW ITS SUPPOSED TO BE

 

WHEN YOU DON'T EVEN

 

NOTICE THAT I'M HERE

 

DON'T KNOW WHAT MORE I CAN DO

 

TO LIGHT THE WAY FOR YOU

 

COULD IT BE

 

ITS ONLY MY IMAGINATION

 

BUT I CAN SEE YOU AND I

 

LOOKING INTO EACH OTHERS EYES

 

THE WHOLE WORLD SLOWS DOWN

 

COMES TO A STOP

 

  RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU AND I 

 

 

 

WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TO TRY

 

TO HANG OUR LOVE

 

YOU KNOW THAT WE'LL BE SURE

 

TO SEE THE SWEET NIGHTS GLOW

 

THE WAY THE MOON

 

SWINGS LOW ENOUGH

 

TO LIGHT YOUR FACE

 

TO RAISE YOUR LOVE

 

WELL ABOVE THESE STARS

 

 

 

THE BEAUTY BEFORE ME

 

MY PLEASURE INVOKED

 

MY SENSES ALL AWAKENED 

 

TELL ME WHAT I HAVE TO SAY

 

SO YOU NEVER GO AWAY

 

LEAVING ME  WITHOUT YOUR LOVE

 

IN THE COLD LIGHT OF DAY

 

TELL ME WHAT DO I HAVE TO SAY

 

TO MAKE THINGS STAY THIS BEAUTIFUL

 

KEEP THE HORIZON

 

FILLED WITH THE SUN

 

MAKING MEMORIES TO KEEP

 

NO STONE LEFT UNTURNED

 

THE FIRES WE WATCH BURN

 

THE FLAMES KISSING THE SKY

 

WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TO TRY

 

TO HANG OUR LOVE

JUST FOR TONIGHT

 


JUST FOR TONIGHT

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

EMPTY STREETS LONELY TOWN

 

BEHIND CLOSED DOORS

 

NO ONE AROUND

 

NO ONE TO FIND

 

ALL HIDDEN AWAY

 

THERE'S JUST YOU AND I

 

TO FACE THE MOON THE STARS

 

 

 

THE SILENT NIGHT

 

THE TIMES ALL OURS

 

TO GET IT RIGHT

 

I KNOW I WANT TO TRY

 

TAKE A CHANCE

 

YOU MIGHT SLIP AWAY

 

TAKE A CHANCE

 

YOU MIGHT STAY

 

ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN

 

AND IT DOES IT NEVER STOPS

 

JUST FOR TONIGHT

 

WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD

 

THE AIR SO THIN

 

I CAN HARDLY BREATHE

 

I CAN'T BELIEVE ITS YOU 

 

THAT WOULD TAKE ME AWAY

 

BUT THE FOOTPRINTS THERE IN THE SAND

 

YOURS AND MINE

 

 

 

I FIND YOU INSIDE RIGHT BESIDE ME

 

JUST  ONE NIGHT

 

IN TWO LIVES

 

WE MIGHT START SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

 

NEATH THE MAGIC OF THE SKIES

 

I'VE GOT ALL NIGHT

 

TO LOOK INTO YOUR EYES

 

DON'T BE SURPRISED

 

SHOW ME LOVE

 

TELL ME STRAIGHT

 

IF WE HAVE WHAT IT TAKES

 

TO GET BACK TO THE GROUND

 

SO LIGHT AND RIGHT BESIDE YOU

 

FREE FALLING INTO YOUR LOVE

 

 

 

JUST HOW LONG IS

 

ONE NIGHT WITH YOU

 

PUSHING THE END AWAY

 

TO MAKE IT LAST A LITTLE LONGER 


CHOKING BACK A TEAR


I DON'T WANT TO SAY GOODBYE


JUST FOR TONIGHT SOUNDS SO FINAL


BABY ITS SAD


I CAN'T LOOK AWAY


IS THERE NOTHING I CAN SAY


TO CHANGE TOMORROW

 

SOMEHOW FIND YOU THERE
