I sure could use some hope this year! Writing this little ditty certainly helped muster some in me. A special thanks to Abstract Audio for an awesome loop as a framework, Rey Izain for a cool clap/drum track and to Kara for the inspiring chimes and glockenspiel.

HERE’s the PELL.

Kiss of Hope

I light a candle in my chest
Most of the world’s in darkness
And I’m despaired I must confess
But I won’t feed that emptiness

Hope is where the heart is
Hope Is where the heart is

I’m fighting apprehension with every breath
Call an intervention to sway this death
With intention divide my attention
And find my true self in the wilderness

Hope is where the heart is
Hope Is where the heart is baby
Hope is where the heart is
I need a kiss of hope this year

Earth looks dead in the ice and snow
Conjures dread of the undertow
Speeding the end of the we world we know
Wake up friends nowhere else to go

But inside
Nowhere else to go
Eyes open wide
Nowhere to else to go
Nowhere else to go
Nowhere else to go
Wait

Hope is where the heart is
Hope Is where the heart is baby
Hope is where the heart is
I need a kiss of hope this year
I need a kiss of hope this year baby

I need some hope this year
So bring it here
Need a little bit of hope this year
So bring it here

Need a kiss of hope
Need a kiss of hope
