Hope is Dancing by James Roethlein


Listen Later

Hope is Dancing James Roethlein Lying alone each night, empty arms aching,all the while hope is dancing hope is dancing hope is dancing in my dreamswhen I’m awake I would seek to seethe sunshine in your facethe heavens in your eyesand to hear the melodic honey of your lipsthat would turn my lemonade soul sweet.
And I would hopeAnd I would hopeAnd I would hopeyou’d dance duet with meall the years we have left.
