Hope

We were living hand to mouth
Our soul searching, heading South
I begged the mirror, "Dare to dream"
But without the "Why?" there was no "How?"
And without a lead, we couldn't be found
As the diaries were washed downstream

Life feeling light years away
Cast on down to a brighter day
Hope, rain over me

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me
Angels come in a different guise
Like the mind changes with different skies
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me

The path was rough
And in the depths of desperation
Lived our fading aspirations
We were tough
We swam the breadth of the duration
Grasping on to our salvation

Life feeling light years away
Cast on down to a brighter day
Hope, rain over me

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me
Angels come in a different guise
Like the mind changes with different skies
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me

Rain over me, rain over me
Rain over me
Rain over me, rain over me
Rain over me

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh hope, oh hope, rain over me
