When I had lost hope,
Thought it all seemed lost,
When nothing counted
And all I felt I had was myself,
The thought of you gave me hope.

When the wind stopped
And the sky grew green,
When the taste of lust
Became the haste of my heart,
The thought of you gave me hope.

When nothing looked real
And hatred seemed the hope,
When life became a nightmare
And my body became hell,
The thought of you gave me hope.

It was you...
All the time, it was you.
It was the thought of you
That made me whole,
The thought of you was all
That gave me hope.
