Hope Once Again - Live 1995

The flower dies
The camera never lies, fire baptizes
The truth is light
Right or wrong is never black or white
We all wear disguises

If a picture could talk, we would all look away
There'd be too many voices
Rain come on and wash away this hot city skin
Pictures and memories and hope once again

Once again
Oh, give me hope once again

So many times
I see you in my mind when I'm not trying to
I see a trellis gate and I run like a child who's late
Whose friends are waiting for him there

Well, I never stopped to realize what was passing me by
But love has a gesture
Catch a glimpse
Reflections of what would, should or could have been
Yeah, pictures and memories and hope once again

Once again
Once again
Give me hope
Hope once again

I wonder if we know the future is now
I wonder if we know
I wonder if we know the future is here
The future is here and now

Give me hope
Give me hope
Hope once again
Give me hope
Just deliver me the hope
Hope once again
Give me hope
Give me faith, give me love
Hope once again

Hope once again
Once we get hope, once we get hope, hope
Hope once again

Thank you, thank you very much
