lyrics

Hopelessly Dreaming (Oliver Gray 2021)
Hope, you got to get hope, Whoa oh oh ay …
Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of another way,
Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of a better day.

Brothers, how we have suffered. Haven't seen my family in years.
Got to get home before the curfew. There's been too many, many tears.

Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of another way,
Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of a better day

Sisters, we can't travel freely and roam this beautiful land.
Camp in mountains and valleys. Swim in sea and play in sand.

Hope, you got to get hope, Whoa oh oh ay …
Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of another way,
Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of a better day.

Let's dream up tomorrow. Fly a kite in the air.
Find a way to heal our sorrows. Peace, love, and to be fair.

Sisters. We got to find a meaning. In all, we think and do.
Brothers. Stop your fighting And lift up all that is true..

Hope, you got to get hope, Whoa oh oh ay …
Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of another way,
Hopelessly Dreaming, Dreaming of a better day.
