Sitting here wondering what it's all about Thoughts moving on gonna give it a shout Those people are so strange and I don't know why There must be a way But it brings a tear What a fine group of teachers we have gathered here We're lost in a world it's a mechanized age, we must turn it around Hope, life is nothing without it Dreams, means nothing without a plan Hope, means nothing without a chance Hope, it means nothing without love Hope, means nothing without a dream Dream, means nothing without a chance Hope, means nothing without love Comic strip characters fill my eyes From the tramp in the gutter to the politician's smile There's war in the east, confusion in the west There must, must be a way The message is clear that everybody's right And nobody's wrong We all live together in a very small boat We all have got to bail We need hope life is nothing without a dream Dream, means nothing without a plan Hope, means nothing without a chance Hope, ooh Life, it means nothing without hope Hope, means nothing without a chance Chance, means nothing without love Hope, means nothing without love, ooh Nothing without love
