Hope Lyrics

How can you say "You torture me"
You're already thinking about someone else
When he comes home you'll be in his arms and I'll be gone
But I know my day will come
I know someday I'll be the only one

So now you wait for a spark
You know it will turn you on
He's gonna make you feel the way you want to feel
When he starts to lie
When he makes you cry you'll know I'll be there
My day will come
I know someday
I'll be the only one

Call me selfish
Call it what you like I think it's right
To want someone for all your own and not to share their love
But I'll have my way

You don't stand a chance anyway
Cause I got to you
You don't stand a chance

So now you wait for his cock
You know it will turn you on
He's gonna make you feel the way you want to feel
When he starts to lie
When he makes you cry you'll know I'll be there
My day will come
I know someday I'll be the only one
My day will come
I know someday I'll be the only one
You say you want perfection
I see your self destruction
You don't know what you want
It's gonna take you a year to find out
I am not givin up
And when you've had enough
You take your bruised little head
And you'll come running back to me
I know that I will be the only one

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
