Outside it's so cold and grey (ha, ha) Nothing but the wind and rain (ha, ha) But through this haze i hear her cry (ha, ha) She's coming back to be with me ...tonight Hope is here, she's close, she's near Hope is here, she's close, she's near ...and she's Embracing me She's here, she's close, she's near Hope is here, she's close, she's near ...and she's Embracing me Quietly she stares at me (ha, ha) She calls me over to her side (ha, ha) Softly she caresses me (ha, ha) I sit there like a timid child ...and smile She will never ever leave ...never
