Under Perfect Skies
UNDER PERFECT SKIES
WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON
DEC.2019
CAN'T SEE THROUGH
THE RAYS OF GOLDEN SUN
A RIVER OF DIAMONDS
ON THE RUN
HOW CAN I GET
ANYTHING DONE
WITH SKIES SO BLUE
THE AIR SO SWEET
ALL AROUND YOU
CAN'T GO FORWARD
CAN'T GO BACK
CAN'T EVEN SEE
THE PATH I'M ON
WARM BREEZES BLOW
BUT I'M STUCK HERE
I CAN'T GO
WE'LL SIT HERE
TIL ITS TIME
FLOWERS LEND THEMSELVES
TO THE SUN
I LOOK AT YOU
AND YOU JUST SMILE
WE CAN GO
IN JUST AWHILE
SET OUT WITH YOU
UNDER PERFECT SKIES
SO BLUE
LAUGHING, LOVING
IN THE SUN
YOU COULD OF TOLD ME
YOU'D STEAL MY HEART
A BREATH AWAY
FROM ALL MY TIME
I DON'T MIND
EVEN A LITTLE
I LIKE IT A LOT
THE TIMES I LOOKED AROUND
TO SEE
IF YOU WERE STILL THERE
RIGHT BESIDE ME
SO MUCH OF YOU
INSIDE ME
YOU FUND THIS CRAZY SMILE
I JUST CAN'T HIDE
CAN'T EVEN
I WOULDN'T TRY
THE THINGS YOU DO
THAT MAKE YOU YOU
YOU FOUND ME
MOVING THROUGH
A STORM
LOOKING FOR THE SUN
SAW YOUR SMILE
AND I KNEW
I WAS HEADING IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION
SAW YOU FALLING
TOWARDS ME
COMING RIGHT FOR ME
A BROKEN SKY BEGAN TO MEND
I NEVER LOOKED BACK
WE KEPT RIGHT ON GOING
FOUND SO MUCH MORE
THAN JUST THE SUN
THE CALL THE ANSWER
AND TWO BECAME AS ONE
