RUNNING COLORS


 

RUNNING COLORS

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

SEE OUR DREAMS

 

COME TO LIFE

 

AND ALTHOUGH SOME

 

 MIGHT SLIP AWAY  

 

WE'LL TAKE THE ONES

 

THAT CATCH AND STAY

 

WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT

 

AS CLOSE TO

 

SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL 


AS WE CAN GET



SEE THROUGH THE RAINBOW


RUNNING COLORS


CHASED BY THE SUN


DOWN BY OCEAN


WALK DON'T RUN TO FEEL


SUMMER BREEZE RISING UP


AND DYING DOWN


WHAT'S YOUR HURRY


WHY THE FROWN


COME ON LET'S GO


GET THIS THING TURNED AROUND


BREATHE IN ALL THE GOOD YOU'VE FOUND


MAKE SURE YOU TAKE YOUR SHARE



SEE HOW CLOSE THE DIVIDING LINE


SEE THE START AND WATCH IT UNWIND


SEE OUR LOVE COME TO LIFE


AND SOMETIMES I  MIGHT BE


A LITTLE LIGHT


HOLD ME DOWN

 

 SO I DON'T TAKE FLIGHT


DAZZLE ME WITH YOUR CHARM


WHAT'S THE HARM IN SINGING


LA LA LA LA


NOTHING YOU SHOULD KEEP INSIDE

 

 

WITH YOUR HEART ON YOUR SLEEVE

 

YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND ANY DOUBT

 

RUNNING COLORS

 

FLYING IN THE WIND

 

CHASED BY THE SUN

 

A PRETTY RAINBOW

 

AND NOW ITS GONE 


TELL ME HOW LONG


HOW LONG IS YOUR LOVE


LONG ENOUGH TO CHASE


RUNNING COLORS LIKE THE SUN


BE THE ONLY ONE

OUR PIECE OF TIME

 


OUR PIECE OF TIME

 

WRITTEN BY 

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

YOU SPEAK TO ME

 

ACROSS CLEAR BLUE SKIES

 

DOWN BY THE RIVER

 

FLOWING THROUGH THE TREES

 

I FIND YOU THERE

 

AN AFFECTIONATE SMILE

 

SILENT IN THE MAGNIFICENCE

 

OF THE AFTERNOON

 

WE WALK TOGETHER

 

LUSH MEADOWS BECKON

 

SUNLIT , AND WILDFLOWERS

 

RESPLENDENT IN THEIR VIBRANT COLORS

 

DRAW US IN

 

FROM THE DAPPLED SHADE IN THE TREES 

 

 

IN THE LIGHTNESS AND PURITY

 

OF THE DAY

 

WHAT IS IT

 

THAT'S INSIDE YOUR HEART

 

WOULD YOU LIKE TO KEEP IT THERE

 

OR BREAK IT DOWN

 

AND TEAR IT ALL APART

 

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE

 

HOW DO WE PROCEED 

 

 

MAYBE THIS IS ALL WE NEED

 

REACH OUT AND CLAIM

 

OUR PIECE OF TIME

 

OUR HEARTS SEASONED WITH LOVE

 

SHOULD FIND THE WAY

 

AND EVEN AS THE SUN IS SINKING

 

I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO COME AWAY

 

FROM THE PLEASURE OF YOUR COMPANY

 

YOUR LOVE AND CHARM

 

A HABIT SWEET IN ITS INNOCENCE 

 

AND SERIOUS IN ITS DESIRE

 

TO BE WHOLE FROM PART

 

 OF SOMETHING MADE COMPLETE



IN YOUR EYES


IN YOUR HEART


THERE NEEDN'T BE AND END


ATTACHED TO WHERE WE START


LIKE THE STARS THAT FILL THE SKY


THE GLORY WAITS FOR US TO SEE


TO TAKE OUR HEARTS EVEN HIGHER


I'LL TAKE YOUR LOVE


IN THE DYING LIGHT


I MAY NOT HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS


BUT THERE'S A CHANCE


THAT YOU MIGHT


MAYBE THIS IS ALL WE NEED


REACH OUT AND CLAIM OUR PIECE OF TIME

MISTRESS FROM DARK WATERS

 


MISTRESS FROM DARK WATERS

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

LEFT MY HOME

 

OFF TO ROAM

 

RIDE THE WIND

 

SEE WHERE IT TAKES ME

 

LOOKING DOWN

 

ON RIVERS AND SEA

 

SOMETHING STIRS WITHIN ME 

 

ITS BEEN TOO LONG

 

RIGHT UNTIL THEN IT HAUNTS YOU

 

JUST LIKE IT WANTS YOU

 

 

 

ALWAYS THERE 

 

A MISTRESS FROM DARK WATERS

 

SHE'S JUST OUT OF REACH

 

ONE STEP AHEAD OF YOU

 

WAITING TO FIX YOUR SOUL

 

MAKE IT RIGHT

 

ITS NEVER LIKE THE ONE

 

YOU HAVE RIGHT NOW

 

THE WORLD WORE IT DOWN

 

 

 

WASN'T IT ALWAYS YOU

 

THAT SAID THAT

 

THIS IS WHERE I SHOULD BE

 

HEAR THE WAVES KISS THE SHORE

 

AND CRASH IN A STORM

 

SUNNY DAYS IN THE SAND

 

I COULD STAY RIGHT WHERE I STAND

 

THE LONG DAYS 

 

DRAGGED INTO STARRY SKIES

 

 

BIG OLD YELLOW MOON

 

TELL ME WAS IT ALWAYS LIKE THIS 

 

TELL ME ITS NOT TOO LATE

 

TO FIND YOU HERE WITH ME

 

HEAR THE WAVES FROM THE TREES

 

REACH OUT FOR YOUR SOUL

 

JUST LIKE ME

 

YOU AND I

 

OUR TASTE OF FOREVER

 

I FALL TO YOUR RHYTHM

 

DOWN A GENTLE STREAM

 

A SWEET SUMMER AFTERNOON DREAM

I STILL FALL

 


I STILL FALL

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

 THE WAVES BREAK ON THE SHORE

 

CLOUDS ROLL OUT WITH THE SAILS

 

LEAVE US IN THE SUN AND SAND

 

I THINK YOU UNDERSTAND

 

THIS IS BIGGER THAN WE FIRST THOUGHT

 

THE FIRE ALIGHT

 

 JUST KIND OF CAUGHT

 

I CAN SEE YOUR NOT CONCERNED 

 

YOU THINK WE SHOULD

 

JUST LET IT BURN

 

UNTIL ITS OUT OF CONTROL

 

UNTIL WE BOTH KNOW

 

WHAT IT TAKES TO KEEP IT GOING

 

 

NO MATTER RAIN OR SUN

 

I SEE YOU AS

 

YOU'LL ALWAYS BE THE ONE

 

THAT PULLED ME OUT OF TIME

 

MADE IT YOURS AND MINE

 

IT PROVES THAT I STILL FALL

 

IT NEVER GOES AWAY

 

 AT ALL

 

ALMOST THERE WITH YOU

 

AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS 

 

HOPE YOU ENJOY THE VIEW

 

 

OUR LOVE,  GOES ON 

 

LIKE ENDLESS SKIES OF BLUE


ALWAYS TIME


ITS NEVER WASTED WITH YOU


 CHASING DREAMS


COMING UP FROM BEHIND


YOU CATCH SOME


YOU LOSE SOME


YOU LEAVE THEM BEHIND


THE ONES THAT MEAN SO MUCH

 

YOU CAN ALMOST REACH OUT AND TOUCH

 

MAYBE JUST TOO GOOD TO BE REAL

 

 YOUR NOT SURE HOW YOU REALLY FEEL

 

THE ANSWERS SEALED

 

 IN YOUR FATE

 

SO ONTO SOMETHING GREATER

 

SO HERE WE ARE

 

ITS MAGIC, ITS US

 

NOTHING THAT WE'VE MISSED

 

I STILL FALL

 

WHEN YOUR NEAR

 

I FALL

 

I'LL WAIT FOR YOU

 

DON'T LEAVE  ME AT ALL

WALK ALL NIGHT

 


WALK ALL NIGHT

 

WRITTEN BY

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

 

I RECALL WHAT WE HAD

 

CAN'T FORGET 

 

BUT YOU THREW IT ALL AWAY

 

WOKE UP ONE DAY AND DECIDED

 

HERE IS WHERE WE END

 

MADE YOUR MIND UP

 

YOU WOULDN'T BEND

 

YOU DECIDED MY FATE

 

WOULD BE FARAWAY FROM YOU

 

 

 

EMPTIED OUT MY HEART

 

WOUNDED MY SOUL 

 

I WALKED AWAY

 

FEELING SO MUCH LESS

 

SO SAD I COULD HARDLY SEE

 

I DON'T KNOW WHO BOARDED THAT PLANE

 

BUT IT WASN'T ME

 

WHAT I ONCE THOUGHT

 

COULD NEVER BE

 

SO MUCH FOR TIME AND LOVE

 

ITS GONE I'M HERE

 

AND IF ITS NOW

 

I DON'T KNOW

 

FOREVER'S GONE 

 

I DON'T SEE ANOTHER ONE

 

COMING ALONG

 

ITS A BLUR AS FAR AS I CAN SEE

 

FARAWAY FROM YOU

 

FARAWAY FROM ME

 

IF THIS IS THE WAY ITS GONNA BE 

 

MY HEADS ALREADY DOWN

 

UNTIL MY HEART CATCHES UP

 

COMES AROUND

 

 

THIS COULD BE THE LAST TIME

 

A LONG TIME TO COME BACK DOWN

 

SEE LOVE LOOKING MY WAY

 

SOMETHING OR OTHER ON MY SIDE

 

I WANT TO SEE

 

 THAT EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT 

 

SO I'LL WALK ALL NIGHT

 

ALONG THE  SHORE 

 

WATCH THE MOON

 

MOVE ACROSS THE WATER

 

AND THE WAVES BREAK RIGHT THROUGH

 

TO MY SOUL

 

BURY THESE THOUGHTS IN THE SAND

 

LOVE LIKE BROKEN GLASS

 

I'M WAITING

 

I'M SURE IT WILL PASS

 

I'LL WALK ALL NIGHT

WHAT IF YOU AND I

 

WRITTEN BY 

 

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

YOU NEVER STOPPED

 

YOU KEPT WALKING

 

I STOOD THERE WONDERING

 

WHAT I COULD SAY

 

TO MAKE YOU TURN AROUND

 

SO I COULD LOOK INTO YOUR EYES

 

STEP INTO YOUR WORLD

 

IF ONLY FOR A MOMENT

 

I DON'T WANT TO SCARE YOU

 

BUT I CAN PICTURE YOU

 

IN MY TOMORROWS 

 

 

NO APOLOGIES

 

FOR PRESSING YOU FOR TIME

 

MAYBE YOU WERE HEADED

 

STRAIGHT INTO MINE

 

GIVE ME SOMETHING

 

SOME KIND OF CLUE

 

WHAT IF YOU AND I

 

FADED AWAY TOGETHER

 

WALK  INTO THE SUN

 

LEAVE MY HEART  AFLAME

 

I CAN SEE YOUR HALO

 

NOW THAT I FOUND YOU 

 

WHAT'S THE MAGIC I CAN FEEL

 

DEEP INSIDE AND  ALL SO REAL

 

 

I KNEW I HAD TO TRY

 

TIME WAS RUNNING OUT

 

GOING BY

 

I CALLED OUT TO YOU

 

YOU STOPPED AND TURNED AROUND

 

I ASKED YOUR NAME

 

ALL THE WHILE KNOWING

 

THINGS MIGHT NEVER BE THE SAME

 

A MOMENT PRECIOUS AND DEAR 

 

JUST TO EVEN HAVE YOU NEAR

 

SAW THROUGH THE SUNS GOLDEN LIGHT

 

YOU COULD MAKE EVERYTHING ALRIGHT

 

YOU COULD SET MY HEART ON FIRE

 

WALK WITH ME THROUGH THE FLAMES

 

LIFE IS LOVE

 

LOVE IS SURELY YOU AND I

 

I AM ACHING TO TRY

 

SEE THE OTHER SIDE OF WHY

 

THESE THINGS COULD EVER BE

 

WHAT IF YOU AND I

 

FADE AWAY TOGETHER

 

WALK INTO THE SUN

JEFF R HILTON

 

2021

 

 

WHERE DO I GO WHEN

 

I WANT TO KNOW

 

WHAT LOVE FEELS LIKE

 

DEEP DOWN IN MY SOUL

 

I CAN HEAR THE MUSIC 

 

ON MY WAY TO YOU

 

A SOFT SWEET HELLO

 

AN AMBER MOON HANGING LOW

 

YOUR LOVE WILL NEVER WEAR OUT

 

ITS ROOTED DEEP IN HERE

 

NO ONE COULD TEAR IT OUT

 

YOU AND I BOTH KNOW

 

WE'VE GOT NOTHING TO DOUBT

 

Chorus:

 

INSTEAD OF WAITING 

 

LETS GO OUT

 

INSTEAD OF IF

 

WHEN WE DO

 

KNOCK IT DOWN

 

AND GO RIGHT THROUGH

 

JUST LET IT BE

 

A NEVER ENDING SYMPHONY

 

JUST LET IT ALL COME TOGETHER

 

WITHOUT A FIGHT

 

CHECK IT OUT

 

IN THE LIGHT

 

ITS ALL BRAND NEW

 

 

 

YOU WOULD KNOW

 

YOUR THE REASON WHY

 

IT STARTED WITH YOU

 

YOU BROKE THROUGH

 

TOOK ME AT PAR

 

THAT'S WHO YOU ARE

 

I LEFT A LOT BEHIND ME

 

OR WAS IT JUST THAT MUCH

 

TRAVELING LIGHT AND FAST

 

WHEN I COULD SEE AT LAST

 

NOW BACK TO ALL THAT'S REAL

 

JUST THE THINGS YOUR HEART CAN FEEL

 

To Chorus

 

ONE DAY WE'LL SEE IT ALL PAY

 

PLAY OUT JUST LIKE WE PLANNED

 

HOLD LOVE IN OUR HANDS

 

SEE IT IN OUR EYES

 

THE COLOR OF OUR SOULS

 

TO HOLD ON AND NOT LET GO

 

I GAVE TO YOU MY HEART

 

YOU TOOK IT FAR ENOUGH TO BE

 

MY ONE AND ONLY

 

YOU SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME

 

INSTEAD OF WAITING

 

To Chorus
