Hope


I am just a girl
Humming softly
To a lonely lullaby
Sitting by myself
 
Oh why, should I 
Stay here
Stay here
Alone
 
I'm searching for the answer
To all my questions
But it's not enough
It's never enough for me
 
Though I can't explain 
How I've become
A stranger of me
Oh, oh, oh
 
La, la, la, la, la
 
Humming softly to a melody
That keeps me going
Everyday
And every night 
 
I pray, and pray
For a miracle 
I never listened 
So I never heard
 
For once I stopped 
To hear a sound
Nothing, but love
Came crashing down
 
It was the realization
That if I love 
Who I am
I will be happy 
 
I have hope
For a better day
Than yesterday
So shine bright
