A photo frame on my bedside
Dusty unkempt, empty inside
Will my heart ever mend or drift away in the end
Your past surrounds you, in a capsule, never to free you
If hope is the dream of a soul awake
As this rose blooms in me, bliss does partake
Take my hand, let’s scale these stairways
With nothing to fear, rise up to
Better days
Every smile that graces your face
Take me to that special place
Fills this gaping void in me
Clear my vision, one that blurry
If hope is the dream of a soul awake
As this rose blooms in me, bliss does partake
Take my hand, let’s scale these stairways
With nothing to fear, rise up to
Better days
Do you believe in second chances?
They tap into your aging bruises
If hope is the dream of a soul awake
As this rose blooms in me, bliss does partake
Take my hand, let’s scale these stairways
With nothing to fear, rise up to
Better days
