A song about hope

lyrics

HOPE IS LIKE A SEED


Verse 1
HOPE IS LIKE A SEED THAT GROWS, THAT GROWS

IT SHOOTS UP IN THE WIND THAT BLOWS, THAT BLOWS

WITH A LITTLE BIT OF SUN AND A LITTLE BIT OF RAIN

A LITTLE BIT OF JOY AND A LITTLE BIT OF PAIN

IT TURNS INTO A WONDERFUL FLOWER WITH AN EXQUISITE, LOVELY SMELL


Verse 2
HOPE IS LIKE A COMPASS THAT FINDS THE WAY

WHEN I GET LOST AND IT LOOKS DARK AND IT SEEMS LIKE A NASTY STORM IS HERE TO STAY

HOPE IS TELLING ME AND YOU

THIS IS SOMETHING TO TRY; THIS IS SOMETHING TO DO

WHEN THINGS LOOK BAD, IT GETS YOU THROUGH—HOPE IS LIKE A VERY BEST FRIEND


Verse 3
HOPE IS LIKE A MAGIC PEN THAT NEVER RUNS OUT OF INK

YOU CAN TAKE IT IN YOUR HAND AND DRAW AND DRAW; IT’LL MAKE ANY COLOR YOU CAN THINK

WITH LINES THAT CURVE AND LINES THAT BEND

AND A BIG LONG LINE THAT NEVER EVER ENDS

YOU CAN DRAW A GREAT BIG MASTERPIECE AS TALL AND AS WIDE AS THE SKY


Ending
HOPE IS A VERY VALUABLE THING;

BETTER HOLD IT IN YOUR HEART AND SEE WHAT IT’LL BRING

IT LIFTS YOU UP AND MAKES YOU SING. HOPE IS LIKE A BALLOON ON A STRING.
