Maria Daines ~ Hope Will Not Be Broken

'Hope Will Not Be Broken'

How much can a heart hurt
Can we live when it breaks
Is trust our anchor
In the loss of our mistakes
How far and how wide
Are the pieces buried deep
Praying with the angels
In the love we sing to sleep

Listen to the ocean
The crying of the waves
Hope will not be broken
She sends her love to save

How gently we climb
On the walls to see the view
Look down into forever
The wishing well of truth
And nobody hears
The siren on the rocks
Forget all time and space
And smash the clocks

Listen to the ocean
The crying of the waves
Hope will not be broken
She sends her love to save

Feel the pain, the affray
Set it down, let it go
Another heart in the wreckage
The place that lovers know
The doors that we should close
Only let the demons in
And on and on the story goes
We never win

How much can a heart hurt
Can we live when it breaks
Is trust our anchor
In the loss of our mistakes
How far and how wide
Are the pieces buried deep
Praying with the angels
In the love we sing to sleep

Listen to the ocean
The crying of the waves
Hope will not be broken
She sends her love to save
Sends her love to save
To save...
