THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...)


you say it's your birthday
  well then...

it's my birthday too
for I was re-born
when I met you

you say it's your birthday
it's my birthday too
for I am re-born
in knowing you

and there's not much I can give
for everything has fallen apart
so what I as your gift
 is my heart...

it is time
to dig for what is true
it is time
I write a rhyme
 for you...


you inspired the purest love I've known
it withstood the worst life could provide
and the test of time has ultimately shown
that no matter what, love hasn't died

you inspired the child to dream again
you inspired the heart to believe in love
you inspired the greatest test of all and then
I knew there was nothing that I couldn't rise above

as long as I believe in love
as long as I believe in love
as long as I give it
share it as I live it
there is nothing I can't rise above
as long as I believe in love

you say it's your birthday
it's my birthday too
for I died and was reborn
in knowing you

you inspired the purest love I've felt
I only hope I can give some to you
will you let me inspire you to melt?
will you let me expose all that's true?

let me inspire the child to dream again
(even for the first time)
may I inspired the heart to believe in love
(please believe in this rhyme)
may you face the greatest test of all and then
realize there is nothing that you couldn't rise above

as long as you believe in love
as long as you believe in love
as long as you give it
share it as you live it
there is nothing you can't rise above
as long as you believe in love

you say it's your birthday
it's my birthday too
give me the gift of
knowing you
and being true

as long as we believe in love
as long as we believe in love
as long as we give it
share it as we live it
there is nothing we can't rise above
as long as we believe in love



Birthday
