Monday…staring at a blank page for 25 minutes now…not a single word. I can’t seem to find any, I must be left them all somewhere…maybe on a cold November morning…or maybe between the bed sheets…or maybe on the front seat of the car…or maybe they’re just on my lips, on my fingertips waiting for something to unleash them…for a reason…to hope:
Ron Pope – Reason to Hope
I gave away more than I had In the blinding cold, in casket black When the sun went down never did return. Like gasoline on an open flame, Light up so bright then burn away. If I fall apart look the other way…
When all the things I need feel just like a dream And every breath I breathe is so hard
Well I just want a reason to hope A reason to know that I should still be here Maybe just a glimpse of the light, a patch of blue sky Something to believe in I just want a reason to hope A reason to hope Want a reason that I should not let go I want a reason to hope
And it’s hard to say that times are bad Cause it’s been much worse, and I know that But from all I’ve seen these days are awful hard And the prayers come slow for me at first, Then the dam broke down and the rivers surged I am on my knees wondering what it’s worth
And all things I need feel just like a dream And so every breath I breathe is so hard
Well I just want a reason to hope A reason to know that I should still be here Maybe just a glimpse of the light, a patch of blue sky Something to believe in I just want a reason to hope A reason to hope Want a reason that I should not let go I want a reason to hope
2X And I said hold up it’s alright If you don’t see open up your eyes If you fall down I will pick you up
Well I just want a reason to hope A reason to know that I should still be here Maybe just a glimpse of the light, a patch of blue sky Something to believe in I just want a reason to hope x2 Want a reason that I should not let go I want a reason to hope
2X And I said hold up it’s alright If you don’t see open up your eyes If you fall down I will pick you up
