Hope - Betsy

When I’m falling through the fire

And my feet burn on the ground

When I’m drowning in the ocean

And my screams don’t make a sound

When my tears no longer soothe me

And my soul no longer smiles

When my heart it needs the shelter

And my face can tell no lies

Won’t you give me hope, hope

And hold me patiently

Won’t you give me hope, hope

And sweet sympathy

Won’t you give me hope, hope

And stay close to me

Won’t you give me hope, hope

Unconditionally

Tomorrow I’ll be fighting

Today I’m on my knees

I’m running from the lightning

No wood for all the leaves

When I find my way back home

And I leave behind the smoke

When my mind it starts to roam

I’ve broken from the rope

Don’t judge my weakness

Just give me cover

Cos I’m so low

So low

Won’t you give me hope, hope

And hold me patiently

Won’t you give me hope, hope

And sweet sympathy

Won’t you give me hope, hope

Won’t you stay close to me

Won’t you give me hope, hope

Unconditionally
