Two Shades of Hope Lyrics

If there's one thing that I know
It is that two shades of hope
One the enlightening soul
And the other is more like a hangman's rope
Pre-horus
Well it's true, you may reap what you sow
#5
But not that despair is the all-time low
horus
Baby, hope deals the the ha- ardest blows
us2
There was once someone I loved
And his heart overflowed his cup
And his shoes got covered in blood
Oh but he never knew
Cause he only looked up
Pre-horus
Well he was a troubled soul
#5
And he saw pain more than most I know
horus
Yet it was hope that dealt the ha- ardest blows
us2
su
And too the girl that holds the hand
Of a somewhat distant man
Though she??d do everything she can
Still his heart set sail for a distant land
Pre-horus
And she wonders sometimes if he knows
#5
How she feels like a trampled rose
horus
Baby, hope deals the the ha- ardest blows
us2

Oooh, oh oh
s
Oooh, oh oh
Well some people think their sins
Cause the cancer that's eating into them
And the only way they can win
Is by the healing of somebody's hands on their skin
Pre-horus
#5
And pra-a-yin, but when the cancer does not go
horus
Surely hope dealt the ha- ardest blows
us2
And now all these truths are sold
With foundations below them
That were dug out in winter's cold
ridge
#5 a#54
When the world stole our young and prayed on the old
Well hope deals in the ha- ardest blows
Yet I cannot help myself but hope
us2
I guess that's why love hurts
And heartache stings
#5
And despair is never worse
Than the despair that it brings
#5
But hope deals the ha- ardest blows, dear
The ha-ardest blows, dear
su
The ha-ardest blows
