You know when you hope and wish br And hope and wish and hope and wish br But nothing happens br How does the heart take so much pain? br Why does your soul keep believing? br How can I cry myself to sleep? br Every night and not run dry br How can I still love him when he ignores me persistently? br How can I hope he’ll come knocking? br How do I hold on? br When it truly hurts br How do I love him shamelessly? br Excusing his very flaw br But to me they aren’t flaws br Only things to help me remember that he’s human br And that we all make mistakes.
