Hope

Colin Dwyer

I’ve found my way I’ve found the trail

It’s far away from this affair

I lost the people I once knew best

And so I traveled to find myself

The past looked to hold me back

It even tried to bring me back

I struggled with it until I flew

Up into the sky, away from you!

Lost, I looked for something new…

Into the woods and up a tree

Where only the dove could see me

It is there I stayed and grew in mind

To capture something that only I could find

It was then the past came back

Not as strong or as black

It was you that made me fly away

And it’s you that wants to take me back that way

You stayed but only a second

Lost in your world of darkness and depression

I’ll kill the bastard who made you this way

And help, if I may, for you to find your way

I did think of you now and then

Almost every evening with my pen

It didn’t help to quicken my quest

But killed my obsession, and led me to heaven

So find your own mind or trail

Far from this affair

Away from all the people you knew best

So you may find yourself

And when that day may come

Look for me under the sun

I’ll ask of you, and you of me

And we will be happy, you’ll see­
