Hope waits tethered to dreams
even as the world is upside down
and nothing is as it seems
From big cities to small towns
light shines just over the horizon
even as the world is upside down
even with this moment humanity lies in
We’ll get through this, we will
Light lives just over the horizon
blooming like a bouquet of daffodils
Time and distance are the weapons we wield
We’ll get through this, we will
Thankful for each one healed
and mourning each one lost
Time and distance are the weapons we wield
never forgetting all that this cost
Hope sits tethered to dreams
while we mourn each one lost
and nothing is as it seems
