it feels
like forever
i've been waiting here
for someone i've never met
…
a strange thing
hope
and it's rising flames
flying up inside of me
…
push it down
darling calypso
don't disappoint yourself
when your outlandish hopes never happen
…
oh how many times
have you dreamt
then fell
fell down
…
so oh honey
don't dream
so you don't fall
push down flames inside
…
oh but they're
growing and you can't stop
and sweetie all you can think of
is those rising flames of hope
…
maybe you could've been
happy together, baby
but when flames grow
the ocean sends
…
he's gone
and you're hopes
are gone
once again
…
