Roddy Woomble - Hope To See lyrics

Your face expresses its years so seriously As the lamp light draws dark circles round your eyes And your mouth twists unexpected fate into it's natural shape And turns the dark into another form of light. Time expresses itself so suddenly And people pa** like strangers in the night. They're just doing what they think is right on into an older way of life Where the dark is just another form of light. Every single thing I ever hoped to see I held in my hands In the hope I'd never turn into the man I'm expected to be And what you hold in your hands Is lost to memory. Dry your eyes and round circles 'Cause you've been poured into the ocean On an undertow of all our lonely hearts. But solitude feels the same Whoever you blame. Don't let darkness become another form of light. Every single thing I ever hoped to see I held in my hands In the hope I'd never turn into the man I'm expected to be Now I know that nothing is lost to memory
