Lyrics to A New Hope
Have I ever been alone
On a journey filled with ghosts?
Of adventures and raconteurs who lend me hope
There's an ocean in my eyes
But I'll blink away the brine
And remember all this fondly when I'm old
Now I lie beneath the clouds
Seeing shapes within my doubt
Making faces out of rain that's yet to come my way
Their stares will guide me on
Each endeavor makes a song
I can sing when nights get cold
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, but memories last
If only I could know
Coming futures unforetold
Felling ivory and towers and the hearts they hold
Nothing ever lights the way
Nothing comforts or assuages
But onward still we row
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, but memories last
I swear
To all my fallen friends
Brush dust off the mantle you pass
Though you may hide
One day will these walls will lie
In spite of how they stood
For all my fallen friends
This grey old life remains
I'll use it to keep you alive
Long as you're close
Long as this grey old life remains
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, but memories last
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, it all goes too fast
But memories last (This too shall pass)
This too shall pass (Memories will last)
But memories last
I'll keep these memories of ours (The memories)
With me when everything has passed (Will last)
On a journey filled with ghosts?
Of adventures and raconteurs who lend me hope
There's an ocean in my eyes
But I'll blink away the brine
And remember all this fondly when I'm old
Now I lie beneath the clouds
Seeing shapes within my doubt
Making faces out of rain that's yet to come my way
Their stares will guide me on
Each endeavor makes a song
I can sing when nights get cold
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, but memories last
If only I could know
Coming futures unforetold
Felling ivory and towers and the hearts they hold
Nothing ever lights the way
Nothing comforts or assuages
But onward still we row
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, but memories last
I swear
To all my fallen friends
Brush dust off the mantle you pass
Though you may hide
One day will these walls will lie
In spite of how they stood
For all my fallen friends
This grey old life remains
I'll use it to keep you alive
Long as you're close
Long as this grey old life remains
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, but memories last
The hope of a new day is dawning
For now our fear is a thing of the past
Collide every heart here with empathy
Life may be fleeting, it all goes too fast
But memories last (This too shall pass)
This too shall pass (Memories will last)
But memories last
I'll keep these memories of ours (The memories)
With me when everything has passed (Will last)
