WHEN OR WHY

 

WHEN OR WHY

 

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2023

 

DANCING ON THE EDGE OF DOOM

CAN YOU REALLY SEE

THROUGH ALL THE GLOOM

WILL WE EVEN BE HERE

WHEN TOMORROW COMES

THEY ALL TURNED THEIR BACKS ON US

HID THEIR HEADS

BEYOND THE FACTS

I DON'T GET THE DISCONNECT

ARE YOU READY

FOR WHAT COMES NEXT

 

CHORUS


DO YOU EVEN KNOW

HOW ALL THIS

IS SUPPOSED TO GO

I HOPE WE ALL MAKE IT

BUT I HAVE SO MANY DOUBTS

WHEN DARKNESS FALLS

UPON THE SUN

THE DAY IS ALMOST DONE

GHOST MOON

IN A POISON SKY

ITS HARD TO SAY

WHEN OR WHY

WE PUT OUR TRUST

IN LESSER MEN

WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS

AGAIN AND AGAIN

IT NEVER SEEMS TO SINK IN


TOMORROWS STILL BY CHANCE

LET ME POINT YOU

TO THE LIGHT

THE CLOSER YOU GET

THE MORE THAT YOU MIGHT

SEE YOUR WAY FREE

SAY GOODBYE TO ME

FACE REALITY

EASY DOWN EASY DONE

IS ANYBODY THERE AT ALL

COME ON NOWS THE TIME

ITS YOUR CALL

OUT THERE IN THE SUN

 

OUT THERE IN THE SUN

 

WRITTEN BY

SPENT SO MUCH TIME

TRYING TO FIND

MISSING PIECES

FLYING BLIND

UNDECIDED

SO TRYING

COMING UP EMPTY

WINDING UP ALONE

 NOTHING SLOWED

 THE TIME LIKE IT 

THAT I'D WANT TO OWN

 

ALL I WANTED WAS A STAR

LOVE LIKE YOU ARE

HOW IS IT

THAT I'M TO KNOW

IF SHE'S NEAR OR FAR

SOMEWHERE

INSIDE A NEW DAY

OUT THERE IN THE SUN

SHE'S WAITING

WANTING THE SAME

 

NOW IF I ONLY KNEW

WHERE THAT SOMEWHERE WAS

I WOULD LOOK

DEEP INTO HER EYES

I WOULD RECOGNIZE

ALL HER LOVE

MEANT FOR ME

IN SOME HIGHER PLACE

A REAL ACE

BESIDE ME

 

ALL THAT'S LEFT UNSAID

CAN WAIT

SEEMS YOU ALREADY KNOW

ITS STARTING TO SHOW

EVERYTHING IS PERFECT

I'M HOLDING OUT

WAITING FOR THE DAY

I'M LISTENING

BECAUSE I'M SURE

YOU'VE GOT

 SOMETHING TO SAY 

THAT I WANT TO HEAR

SOMEWHERE

 INSIDE A NEW DAY

OUT THERE IN THE SUN

ALL THAT I FEEL

 

ALL THAT I FEEL

 

WRITTEN BY

EVERY WISH

EACH DREAM

THE ONES I'VE  SEEN

ALL THE ONES

THAT DIDN'T QUITE

 MAKE IT 

THE ONES THAT

SHOOK ME TO MY CORE

GAVE ME PAUSE

EXAMINE THE CAUSE

FROM EVERY ANGLE

BEFORE I SET OUT AGAIN

 

OUT TO MEET THE SUNRISE

IN REVERED SILENCE

I MAKE MY WAY

READY AS I'M GONNA BE

COME WHAT MAY

BOLDER

EVERY STEP I TAKE

SO DETERMINED

THIS TIME IS SPECIAL

ONE OF THOSE TIMES

YOU NEVER WANT

TO TAKE BACK

 

ALL THAT I FEEL

I CERTAINLY WILL

GET IT RIGHT

SAY YOU WILL

SAY YOU MIGHT

STEP OUT

INTO THE LIGHT

I WANT TO SEE YOU SHINE

LIKE MORNING SUN

ON CALM SEAS

A LOVE I'VE NEVER SEEN

THE LIKES OF BEFORE

I KNOW YOU'RE THE GIRL

I SAW YOU

IN EVERY DREAM

 KNEW YOU WERE REAL

KNEW I HAD TO TELL YOU

HOW I FEEL

 

YOU KNOW ITS YOU

THE STARS LINED UP

ALL THAT I FEEL

IS EVERYTHING

I CERTAINLY WILL

GET IT RIGHT

STEP OUT

INTO THE LIGHT

THIS IS OUR LOVE

WE CAN CALL THIS HOME

NO MORE STONE TO CARRY
