Hope Lyrics

Hope is just a song sung when love is left in solitude

A single star suspended in a dark and distant attitude

The start continues shining on

When all the other light is gone

And lights a path for midnight walking through

I lie awake along at night

Long since the faded firelight

And all desire, like the glow, is gone

But high above an arching tree

The stars are shining steadily

And so my thoughts of you continue on, continue on

Hope is just a song sung when love is left in solitude

A single star suspended in a dark and distant attitude

The start continues shining on

When all the other light is gone

And lights a path for midnight walking through

A loon is swimming on the lake

Ripples moving in his wake

Tracing the liquid mirror that I see

I realize the lights below

Are really stars of long ago

And so the lake reflects a memory, a memory
