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

there are many adventures
many choices in life
many experiences to try
some are dark some are light
there's the frivolous flings
and the teenage romance
there's lust and there's passion
and there's true love's dance
and we must go through them all
to understand what's true
and I'm just beginning to understand
so I'm writing this song for you

there are so many lessons
so much growing to do
before we can really know
what is real and when love's true
people cheat to discover
what feelings are about
afraid to admit doubt
afraid to let feelings out
but if we really get honest
we can trust deep inside
and we can finally go home
  satisfied...

stars will always shine above
but they will not bring you love
dreams will always warm the heart
but you still must do your part
truth is not a great divide
but the answer deep inside
we must do what we must do
to learn what is real and true

so sow your wild oats
stretch out your wings
feel every song you can play
on your heart strings
and give love a chance
reach beyond the norm
cuz it takes more than passion
to keep a heart warm
we needed this time
to explore and be free
and when you're ready to settle down
  for our family...
when your heart wants to come home
bring it home to me

we had a lot to learn
so much growing to do
so much fear to overcome
so much pain to get through
we've been through the darkest nights
took the worst this world could give
we needed the experience
just to learn how to live
we had to take this time
to explore and be free
and when you're ready to share the journey
  for all eternity...
when your soul wants to come home
bring it home to me
