The Four Seasons - Hope and Glory lyrics

Summer night young love came calling Was as strong as a hurricane Nothing could stop their love from falling With each other they felt no shame She had a dream about tomorrow He swore to God he'd make it come true Nobody told him about the sorrow All the storms they'd been going through It's the same old story As the time goes by Of the hope and glory In a young man's eyes Just when it all gets easy Somebody tears your heart out Sometimes you damn-well better Give up before you even start out Is it too late to find The "great American dream" When it all unwinds? So she's taking the kids to school now He's working his life away Where is that happy ever-after What happened to yesterday? Now they're saving their every penny Their kids will be what they couldn't be Nothing less than extraordinary A new aristocracy It's the same old story As the time goes by Of the hope and glory In a young man's eyes Just when it all gets easy Somebody tears your heart out Sometimes you damn-well better Give up before you even start out Is it too late to find The "great American dream" When it all unwinds? She had a dream about tomorrow He swore to God he'd make it come true Nobody told him about the sorrow All the storms they'd been going through It's the same old story As the time goes by Of the hope and glory In a young man's eyes (As the time) As the time goes by (As the time) As the time goes by (It's the hope) It's the hope and glory (As the time) As the time goes by (As the time) As the time goes by (All the hope) As time goes by (It's the hope) It's the hope and glory (As the time) As the time goes by
