Sing me a song full of love
Sing me a song full of hope
Sing me a song filled with life,
not goodbyes like the song in your eyes

I have always been true
Even when I knew the same
was not returned from you
Optimism hurts when
reality's much worse
Naivete scars later on

But happiness comes
at the most unexpected times
Or maybe there's a reason for yours
One that I ignore
until my head becomes sore
Because all I want to hear is your voice

Sing me a song full of love
Sing me a song full of hope
Sing me a song filled with life,
not goodbyes like the song in your eyes

Sometimes I can feel your pain
But it's fleeting, leaving me wandering
Oh no, here we go again
Ups and downs, you spin me
around until I can't think straight

Disorientation can be a lovely medication
For the heart's tribulations
Until you realize
That's all you'll ever feel

Sing me a song full of love
Sing me a song full of hope
Sing me a song filled with life,
not goodbyes like the song in your eyes

One more week until I'm home
Will you be there? Or has someone
else stolen your life?
Mine will go on either way,
one choice just hurts more at the
end of the day

You parted from me
Stoic as can be
And I sit by myself to figure
What it was all about
I may never know, but one last time
would you please

Sing me a song full of love
Sing me a song full of hope
Sing me a song filled with life,
not goodbyes like the song in your eyes
