Hope Against Hope Lyrics

It's all coming back to me now.

But try as I have to keep,

The taste of you off of my tongue;

Your face from my fitful sleep.

An' I wait and hope against hope like before.

An' I wait an' hope that I won't anymore.

An' this won't stop till I do.

Until I learn to kill the thought,

Of everything I could have said:

Of everything I wished I'd not.

An' I wait, hope against hope like before.

An' I wait, hope that I won't anymore.

Show rises up from the street, Rosanne Cash - Hope Against Hope - http://motolyrics.com/rosanne-cash/hope-against-hope-lyrics.html

An' a crowd rises up to it's feet.

I followed blind after you:

I might know better if I'd ever wanted to.

Instrumental Break.

The painting here is still not dry,

An' I can smell it from the door.

It covers every mark you made:

The countin' days are keepin' score.

An' I wait, hope against hope like before.

An' I wait, an' hope that I won't anymore.

An' I wait, hope against hope like before.

An' I wait, an' hope that I won't anymore.
