Hope Springs Eternal...

Hoping for a better day?
Waiting for a better way?
ACT as you Hope
Change is in what we do and say.

Change isn't one man
even a man with a plan.
Change is every single one of us
taking that stand.

Taking that stand
playing our part
Embracing Life and each other
straight from our Hearts.

Hearts that we share
yes, you and me.
Hearts that we bare
hoping for all that can be.

All that can be
woman, man, and child
Life isn't Paradise, yet
but wouldn't that be wild?

Change is hard efforts
among opinions gone berserk
Change is looking to your enemy
and making it work.

Its listening
when you don't like what they say
Its sticking it out
when you could walk away.

Change isn't impossible
doesn't even have to be far.
Change is you and me
and what we all prove we are...
