Hoping

(album: From Capelton Hill - 2022)

I know what it means to be lonely
Is there something you want to tell me?
I want you to know that you can kiss me
And then it makes you mine, my one and only

One person hurt you, now it's everyone's fault
One day you'll leave behind that prisoner's heart

You can tell me now I'm reasonably sober
And we made it through the night
The longest nightmare that we ever had is over
And maybe everything will be alright

You know what it means to feel empty
Sometimes I feel empty, too
I want you to know that you can leave me
And it won't change a thing about my memory
My memory of you

One person loved you, now you live on that peak (One person loved you)
One day you'll leave behind those things you can't keep

You can hold me now I'm not tripping anymore
And the window is wide open
We're deep asleep together lying on the floor
And when we wake up we are hoping, we're hoping for more

You can forget me now I'm not lonely anymore
And what has all of this been for
If we're not hoping anymore?
What has all of this been for
If we're not hoping anymore?
