Hope Lyrics by Betty Buckley

Hope

[Verse 1]
I come to sing a song about hope
I'm not inspired much right now, but even so
I came out here to sing a song, so here I go
I guess I think
That if I tinker long enough, one might appear
And look! It's here
One verse is done
The work's begun

[Verse 2]
I come to sing a song about hope
In spite of everything ridiculous and sad
Though I'm beyond belief depressed, confused, and mad
Well, I got dressed
I underestimated how much that would take
I didn't break
Until right now
I sing of hope
And don't know how

[Bridge]
So maybe I can substitute "strength"
Because I'm strong
I'm strong enough
I got through lots of things I didn't think I could
And so did you
I know that's true

[Verse 3]
And so I sing a song about hope
Though I can't guarantee there's something real behind it
I have to try to show my daughters I can find it
And so today—
When life is crazy and impossible to bear—
It must be there
Fear never wins
That's what I hope
See? I said "hope"
The work begins

[Piano Solo]

[Bridge]
So maybe I can substitute "strength"
Because I'm strong
I'm strong enough
I got through lots of things I didn't think I could
And so did you
I know that's true

[Verse 3]
And so I sing a song about hope
Though I can't guarantee there's something real behind it
We have to try to show my daughters we can find it
And so today—
When life is crazy and impossible to bear—
It must be there
Fear never wins
That's what I hope
See? I said "hope"
The work begins
