Hope in a hopeless world

Paul Young - Hope in a hopeless WorldThe baby's born in New York CityWrapped in a blanket that's tattered and wornMama's doing the best she canFindin' hope in a hopeless world
Her eldest boy
Well he stayed in school
Listen to mamaDidn't drink or use
But every job he wants
He gets refused
Is there hope in a hopeless world
Looking for hope in a hopeless worldSearchin' for love in such hateful timesTryin' to stay strong
While the mind gets weakI'm lookin' for hope in a hopeless world
On a corner stands a young girl
The home she left was from the better part of town
Her daddy did things she'd rather not talk about
Is there hope in a hopeless world
You gotta quarter for the homeless
Spare some changes for a soldier who fought the war
Put some money in those hats and in those tins
Give them hope in a hopeless world
Gotto find hope in a hopeless worldLookin' for love in such hateful timesLookin' for hope in a hopeless world I got to ease my mind
Ease my mind
You gotta listen to the voice inside you
That speaks of loveDon't compromise , realise
The time is quickly passing by
There are mountains to climb
You can't be standing still
The churches are full but the prayers are not heardSaturday's child don't want to go to Sunday school
Whatever happened to the golden rule
Teach them hope in a hopeless world Somebody out there's got to listen
Somebody out there's got to know what I'm talking about
Raise your hand if you're with me
Give them hope in a hopeless world Gotta find hope in a hopeless world Gotta in love
Gotta find love in hateful times
Gotta find love
Gotta find love and free your mind
Gotta find love
Is there hope in a hopeless world Is there hope in a hopeless world
