lyrics

Call out my name
And I’m standin right there beside you
Cast out your blame
Still I will be standin right there beside you
Don’t think I’m here to play
At your love with crazy games
No, that’s all behind you

Just like the rain
I keep fallin so hard all around you
No, I can’t explain
How every day I can’t help but think about you
I know it seems insane
And at first I thought the same
But when I opened up my heart it burst right into flames
And know that’s a good thing

Cause I’ve got hope in my heart for you
And I know you know you feel it too
All this time, I’ve always had hope in my heart for you

Thru all the pain
That I know you must have all inside you
Know it won’t sustain
Yeah time is your friend let it find you
I know I cannot stay
But in the most respectful way
It’s never been so hard for me to turn and walk away
But maybe someday

Cause I’ve got hope in my heart for you
And I know you know you feel it too
All this time, I’ve always had hope in my heart for you

Yes I’ve got hope in my heart for you
And I know you know you feel it too
All this time, I’ve always had hope in my little heart for you

Oh all I've got is hope up
Yeah every time I look inside
All I find is hope in my heart for you

about

B.R. Lively Austin, Texas

As you dance in the dark
of a forever tomorrow
You may never want
to see the sun again

As you weep with tears
of a forever sorrow
You may wish the sun
had never risen

But if you stand in the still
beating heart of a storm
with eyes wide open
You will see a forever peace
and know this star
could never cease
its shining ... more
