**** BOATS version ****
(alternate version below)
Let your love flow down
Let it fall to the ground
Therein lies the roots
Reaching for the stream
All I wanna do
Is keep on reaching through
Keep on reaching through
To the river wide and strong
It won't take long
We can all go together
If we just hold on
A new generation
And a brand new age
I wanna fall like rain
On burning pages
Rise from the ashes
Like a phoenix sun
Learning to flow
Searching for love
You know that I can't get enough of
Get enough of that hope
Oooh oooh oooh
Hope
Hope
Hope, yeah
Hope, yeah yeah
Hope
Hope, hey eh
I want my child to see the beauty of this place
To walk from the mountains, to the sea
Hope
Hope, yeah
Hope, yeah yeah
Hope, yeah yeah
Hope, hope... yeah, yeah
You know that I can't get enough of
Get enough of that hope
Oooh oooh
Hope
Oooh, yeah
Hope
Oooh oooh
Hope
Yeah eh
You know that I can't get enough of (x4)
I wanna promise you
Hope for a generation (x2)
I wanna promise you
**** Alternate Version ****
Hope for a generation
Just beyond my reach
Not beyond my sight
Hope for a generation X6
I see it singing 'Hope for a generation'
Hope for a generation
I see it singing 'Hope for a generation' x8
I want to drip like honey from the honey bee
Walk from the river down to the sea
Fly through the face of a thundercloud
Break down
Down on the people that won't allow
Not gonna let them keep me
Not gonna let them hold me
Not gonna let them tempt me, no
A love for music x 2
The music is me
The music is you
The music can be
Something we do
The music is good
And the music right
Music can stand strong
Right through the night and
Music can hold you
And music can keep you
Safe from harm in her beautiful arms
Music is you
The thing we do
It's the thing we do x2
It's the thing we do to get me through x (however many)
