Jack Carty - Hope lyrics

She works real hard And pays her bills She try's to improve On what she builds She takes the hits And bears the pain When life is hard Laughing in her face Hope don't leave When she needs you Please don't run away too far too soon When all is dark inside her room you're the one she holds onto Some get luck And a fast track there And some are happy just where they are But oh, I feel that there's more to me But the dealer won't count the cards up my sleeve Hope don't leave When I need you Please don't run away too far too soon When all is dark inside my room you're the one I hold onto You're a temptress But I know your kind You whisper softly “you'll make it if you try” And every time I fall I curse your name But I love you so I hope you'll stay Stupid girl You cannot win It's a rough and ruthless world we're in But oh I know it's beautiful To jump from ledges When you know you'll fall Hope don't leave When we need you Please don't run away too far too soon When all is dark inside our rooms you're the one we hold onto
