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

what can be said
when hope is dead
may you go to bed
and find in your head
that hope is not dead

what can be told
when love feels so cold
may you just unfold
and not feel so old
and love is not cold

cold is the fear
the fear of the pain
the fear of the failure
the fear of the rain
but everything in balance
or nothing can survive
we need the cooling of the rain
like we need the fire of the sun
it's called being alive...

so when it feels like there's no more
no point in going on
curl up and let yourself go
you'll find while you are gone
that you still have a choice to give
more to love or more to fear
and even when you do not know
the answer is right here
the answer's waiting here...

sleep a while dear child
rest upon your dreams
heal the love defiled
it's not as hard as it seems
just let the time go by
and please don't run away
for a brighter tomorrow
may come to you today
just hold on one more day...

silently, resist the fear
invisibly you can stay here
taste the passion of your tear
and remember...
you can still care
and remember...
you can still share
and remember...
there's always more
you never know what tomorrow has in store
and you'll never know...
if you close the door...

hold on...
hold on...
even if you have no idea what for...

so when it feels like there's no more
no point in going on
curl up and let yourself go
you'll find while you are gone
that you still have a choice to give
more to love or more to fear
and even when you do not know
the answer is right here
the answer's waiting here...

sleep a while dear child
rest upon your dreams
heal the love defiled
it's not as hard as it seems
just let the time go by
and please don't run away
for a brighter tomorrow
may come to you today
just hold on one more day...



Hold On
