There Is Hope

Message in a bottle
Having floated the deep blue sea
To be opened and read in the setting sun
A simple message for me

All roads lead to nowhere
But somewhere if you find the time
Highways and stories travel the miles
Seeking ancient rhythm and rhyme

There is hope in every verse I read
There is hope in every tear I bleed

Now the hour is late
Sun has set dreams put to bed
Nighttime passes the hour glass sand
Simple love songs in my head

And I stop and ask what can this mean
Why such a way of living for me
Planets aligned across the heaven's sky
Life's genuine pleasures simple and free

There is hope in every verse I read
There is hope in every tear I bleed

Strange message in a bottle
How happy I am you have been read
Opening doors and new light shines
Showing the journey to be led

I tell you all now seems so clear
Sun rises a brand new day
That open door letting morning light in
Making clear what next to say

And there is hope in every verse I read
And there is hope in every tear I bleed
