Amy Matthew Poet Lyric

Still Hopeful By Amy Matthew Ascap C)2005

v1) oh my heart is beating uncontrollably 
because i dont know how to say this 
there are a million thoughts 
racing circles in my mind.. 
how do you admit a secret 
that could possibly destroy your life 
that could turn even your closest friends against you 
without ever knowing why?? 
yes im afraid but.. 

ch) i am still hopeful 
that your gonna love me 
i am praying out loud 
that you wont desert me now 
i have to get the courage 
to be proud of who iam 
so even if you disagree and are afraid.. 
please remember as i say this 
that i am still a man.. 

v2) many before me 
have died for their individuality 
they fought for their love 
and for their heart to bleed 
so here i am trembling before you 
putting nothing but my faith 
and love in your hands 
so please dont turn your back right now 
when what i need the most is a friend..my friend 

ch) repeat 

bridge: i am stronger now that i have been for my whole life 
i broke the chains that had been tearing at my heart 
i saw you smile 
and a weight was lifted from my shoulders 
when you pulled me in your arms and held me tight 
yah now iam still hopeful..that one day we can all be free!!
