Hope
Music and Words by
Rufus Stone and Pierre Tubbs ©
Verse 1
See the face of the one who’s all alone
Living for today, tomorrows a heavy load
It only takes one second, for you to be there friend
It only takes one second, for another year to end
Verse 2
How many years should it take to get it right
How many reasons, how many days and nights
Who’s got the vision, to keep our future safe
Who’s got the wisdom, the courage and the faith
Chorus
I only hope this time we get it right
Given all that we know of life
If we work hard enough together we might
We just need to hope
I only hope we get it right this time
Verse 3
How many lives does it take to end all war
How many times have you heard this all before
It only takes one second for the winds to change
One second, for us to start again
Chorus
I only hope this time we get it right
Given all that we know of life
If we work hard enough together we might
We just need to hope
I only hope we get it right this time
Middle 8
Like the unborn flower, before the desert rain
The eagle flies so high and he sees it all
If only we would question why
Maybe then we’d get it right
If only we could fly that high
Chorus
I only hope this time we get it right
Given all that we know of life
If we work hard enough together we might
We just need to hope
I only hope we get it right this time
Keychange chorus
I only hope we get it right this time
Given all that we know of life
If we work hard enough together we might
We just need to hope
I only hope we get it right this time
(Ooh)
A little hope
I only hope we get it right this time.
End
