hang to your hope when everything as gone
put your trust in faith to help you carry on
and when your in distress as you feel despair
turn again to hope hope is always there
when your giving up and feel theres is no end
there is aways hope just around the bend
all you needs belief and the faith to pull you through
hang to the hope that is there for you.

i had a lovely vision while asleep one night
of a land so faraway where everything was bright
everthing was peaceful there wasnt any sound
with grass as soft as velvet growing all around
lots and lots of flowers growing wild and free
showing of there colors as lovely as can be
there were lots of bluebirds flying in the sky
singing songs of love as they went flying bye
this land it was beautiful and just a dream away
and if this dream came true there i would long to stay

i kept the band of gold that you gave to me
i hold  it to my heart and think how it used to be
when everything was happy and life was bright and gay
when you placed on my finger on our wedding day
i think of how it used to be when i loved you from my heart
now everything is over and were so far apart
but i still have the memories they are there to stay
and when i think of you your not faraway.

i saw a little monkey in a big palm tree
sat there picking coconuts and bringing them to me
he put them in pile and put them nice and neat
then he got some more and laid them at my feet
he was very friendly and he just love to play
passing on the time in his monkey way
having lots of fun as happy as can be
this funny little fellow filled my heart with glee.

watch the tide roll in watch it as it flows
watch it as it turns watch it as it goes
leaving once again to some other shore
till the time has come to return again once more
coming home again covering the land
rolling in to shore covering the sand
going to and fro every single day
the beauty of the sea controlled by natures way

i sat down by a pond one bright and sunny day
i sat there a while passing time away
watching all the ducks as they were floating by
peaceful as can be beneath a summer sky
there were lots of geese as big as big can be
swimming in the read so beautiful and free
i was so relaxed and it made me feel so gay
sitting by the pond just passing time away.

when you find your first love
it gives your heart a glow
emotions running wild
as your love begins to flow
your life it seems so happy
a feeling that is new
bringing out the love
deep inside of you
a feeling  very precious
coming from your heart
these feelings you will get
when loves about to start.
