Hope sails on

Your face is the prelude to a world of love and hope

I am drowning in a sea of ecstasy

I dance until my dream becomes a reality

And find what I have been searching for

A hope that dangles in your right hand

At this time of uncertainty and disorder

Your words elude all my doubts about the world

Your touch heals my desperation about human nature

I set my sail for your destination

To feel the warmth of your passion

And drink a cup of liveliness

My hope sails on with time on my side

and with you as my guide

Suddenly everything seems colorful and bright

Vanished is the city without light
