PHOENIX

 

PHOENIX

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2023

 

WAITING, ONCE AGAIN

WATCHING FATE UNFOLD

I DON'T KNOW BEYOND TODAY

ANYMORE THAN I'VE BEEN TOLD 

SOMETHING NEW STARTS AGAIN

TAKES ME ALONG

MY DREAMS WILL

CONTINUE ON

 

TIME TO STEP OUT FROM BEHIND

MY RELATIVE OBSCURITY

LET THE SUN SHINE ON ME

MY BEST SMILE SHOULD TAKE ME

AS FAR AS I NEED TO GO

INSIDE THE WIND RUSHING PAST MY EARS

A WHISPERED VOICE TELLING ME SO

THE BEST YEARS ARE STILL AHEAD

 

ITS THEN I SAW THE PHOENIX RISE

ALL AFLAME BUT HE STILL FLIES

KEEP MOVING FORWARD NEVER BACK

KEEP LEARNING THE THINGS

YOU NEED TO KNOW

WHEN STARTING OVER

 BECOMES A WAY OF LIFE

YOU CAN HOLD UP YOUR END

OF THE FIGHT

 

THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD

CAUGHT IN YOUR EYES

MUST GIVE YOU AWAY

ALL THOSE STARS IN ONE PLACE

A SIGHT TO SEE

I CAN'T HELP BUT TO THINK

THERE'S SO MUCH MORE TO ME

 

JUST LET LIFE COME TO ME

AND I'LL TAKE WHAT I NEED

I REMEMBER EVERYTHING

CHASING RAINBOWS AFTER RAIN

WISHING FOR END OF DAY

JUST TO BURY MY HEAD INTO NIGHT

YOU CAN'T LOSE

 WHAT YOU NEVER HAD

STAND IN YOUR TRUTH BEFORE

YOU FALL AWAY
