PRESSED

 

PRESSED

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2023

 

IF I EVER THOUGHT YOU TURNED AWAY

THE SKY WOULD CHANGE 

TO DARK AND GRAY

SWALLOWED BY A RIVER

BLACK AS NIGHT

MY HEART WOULD TURN TO STONE

SINK TO THE BOTTOM

ON IT'S OWN

 

MY WORLD UPSIDE DOWN

ONLY SKY NO GROUND

TO STAND ON

AND I'M FALLING I CAN'T STOP

I CAN'T BEAR THE THOUGHT

OF LOSING YOU

IF YOU DIDN'T ALREADY KNOW

NOW YOU DO

I NEED YOU LIKE THE AIR I BREATHE

I NEED YOU TO BELIEVE 

BEAUTY WHEN I LOOK AT YOU

BLUE EYES LIKE POOLS

I COULD FALL INTO


ONE LOOK AND THERE I GO

MOUNTAINS CLIMB OUT OF THE LAKES

REACHING FOR THE SKIES 

RIVERS GO RUSHING BY

OVER A FALLS WAY UP HIGH

THE GREEN VALLEYS LUSH

THESE THINGS DON'T MEAN AS MUCH

WITHOUT YOU

 

THIS WILDERNESS  THIS SILENCE

LONELINESS MAKES ITS MARK

AND IT WON'T LET GO

CRUSHED AND PRESSED

BY A LOVE ON HOLD

LEFT OUT IN THE COLD BY FATE

MY WORLD UPSIDE DOWN

ONLY SKY NO GROUND

FEEL LIKE I'M FALLING

DOWN
