Can we walk in hope into another new year?

Can we walk in hope

Into another new year

Just to cast away the ghosts

Or to have the time again?

You said 'hold on to dreams'

But I know you don't try

Cos you're innocent

I know that you won't survive

I heard the phone ring

So late at night
That I thought someone had died

But your voice was full of hope

Like it was on better days

On clear mornings

When the rain had left the sky

I can't stand the thought of you alone

I can't stand the thought of you alone

Don't try to get close to us

Because there's nothing

But our souls laid bare

Will we survive

I know we will
