Hope Lyrics

I dreamed of a black bird

With white wings

Up on the mist covered hills

He spread them wide for me to see

And he told me of the good times coming

And that days would once again be bright

I dreamed of a shepherd

With a white flock

Down in the valley green

He whistled like a blackbird

And I heard his hollow tune on the air

And it told me that life was still good

I dreamed of a black cat

With a white chin

And the sweetest little paws

She rolled onto her back

And she showed me the sweetness that was inside

And I knew then that I was still loved

But I can't hide

This pain that's still there

And I can't pretend

Not to care

But I still know

That life

Goes on

I dreamed of a white swan

With grey wings

Gliding along the canal

In her movements she told me all she had done

And she hissed at me when I got close to her

And drove me away just like her pain

I dreamed of a red sky

With dark clouds

Warning of bad weather

And I couldn't help but ask it why

Why some people live and others simply don't

Why I'm here, and what I'm here for

And I dreamed of you

Knowing that you're gone

And I dreamed that you

Never left this place

But I still know

That life

Goes on

I dreamed of a clear sky

Around you
