Hope I Had
Once I believed in something real
Had faith in a love I would feel
But that hope I had collapsed and it faded away
Drowned in the darkness of another day
The hope I had disappeared long ago
In a lost dream, a whisper in the wind
Life's made promises I didn't want to know
The hope I had disappeared long ago
Despair and sadness fill my life
As I try to find something that's not a lie
But the sparkle in my eyes has been dimmed and destroyed
And the answer I seek can no longer be deployed
The hope I had disappeared long ago
In a lost dream, a whisper in the wind
Life's made promises I didn't want to know
The hope I had disappeared long ago
Searching for hope, searching for answers
Lost in a darkness, nothing left to surmise
Alone with the hurt, alone with my fears
The hope I had disappeared long ago
The hope I had disappeared long ago
In a lost dream, a whisper in the wind
Life's made promises I didn't want to know
The hope I had disappeared long ago
