Nothing Short of Broken Skies
NOTHING SHORT OF BROKEN SKIES
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON
DEC. 2019
NEVER WAS THE NIGHT
JUST OUR OWN LIKE THIS
TO RAISE US UP TO BE
ALL WE'LL EVER BE TONIGHT
THE AIR OUTSIDE
SO PURE AND STILL
NO WAY A HEART CAN
KEEP THIS MUCH
LOVE INSIDE
HOW DO YOU FEEL
WHAT ABOUT YOU
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
THAT CAN DO THIS
WITH ME
YOUR HAIR STEALING
THE MOONLIGHT
I WOULDN'T BREAK
YOUR SPELL
NEVER BREAK YOUR HEART
WHEN I'M WITH YOU
TOMORROW IS
ANOTHER SWEET PROMISE
LIKE THE STARS
IN THE HEAVENS
SHINING DOWN
ALL AROUND US
I KNEW THEY'D FIND US
ALL BECAUSE OF YOU
I KNEW I DID
I DO
WANT TO HOLD YOU
UNTIL THERE'S NO MORE TIME
UNTIL THIS WORLDS
NO LONGER
YOURS OR MINE
NOTHING SHORT OF
BROKEN SKIES
COULD STOP ME
FROM GETTING TO YOU
I CAN SAY
WHAT YOU'RE THINKING
I CAN TELL
WHEN YOU NEED ME
AND WE'RE APART
WHEN I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
I GET LOST INSIDE
ONLY UNTIL
YOU LET MY LOVE
HOLD YOU
ALL NIGHT LONG
UNTIL THE LIGHT OF DAWN
COMES TO FIND US
IN THE SUMMER LIGHT
NEVER WAS THE NIGHT
LIKE THIS DREAM WITH YOU
