lyrics

Hope
© Abbie Gardner, Gimmie Some Ribs Music (ASCAP)

My hope is a two-timing thief in the night
Making deals with people I should run from
Please don’t give him money, or let him call you honey
Cause he’ll love you and then leave you lonesome

My hope is a floozy, she's drunk and unruly
Dancing up on top of the bar
She falls like a hammer, and glasses that shatter
Like broken little pieces of stars

I can't stop, I can't choose, I love, I lose
Clear my head, clear my sight, it's a curse it's a fight
Got no cause to believe, but my hope just won't leave
I know I can't win, I give up.... I give in...

Oh but fear thunders closer, he’s an angry composer,
armed with a thousand violins.
Yeah he drowns out the sound of what I thought I’d found
And I’m a fool cause I believe again

I can't stop, I can't choose, I love, I lose
Clear my head, clear my sight, it's a curse it's a fight
Got no cause to believe, but my hope just won't leave
I know I can't win, I give up.... I give in...
