Hope to me was a big red balloon Deflating slowly and still stuck to the ceiling Hope to me is like a figure in the hazy doze I know it's fine And all these good lies As if woken from my sleep I know it's fine And all these good byes As if stolen from my dreams Hope to me was an old plush bear Tossed aside one intense sunny day Hope to me is like a petrol rainbow in a puddle I know it's fine And all these good lies As if woken from my sleep I know it's fine And all these good byes As if stolen from my dreams I know it's fine Some of these mayflies As they hatch in brackish streams I know it's fine And all this moonrise As it falls on haunting lanes You found me You healed me You touched me I saw you You wrapped me You dragged me You caught me I saw you You found me You found me You found me You found me
