Only Hope
Mandy Moore · Other Songs - Mandy Moore
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinate cold
But you sing to me over and over and over again
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and Pray
To be only your's
I Pray
To be only your's
I know now
You're my Only Hope
Sing to me the song, of the Stars
Of your Galaxy Dancing, and Laughing and Laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and Pray
To be only your's
I pray
To be only yours
I know now
You're my Only Hope
I give you my Destiny
I'm giving you all of me
I want your Symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs
I'm giving it back
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now, you're my only hope
Hmmmm. . . Hmmm. . .Oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh. . .
