As I gather my thoughts with the pieces of my heart   Tell me, how long is forever   I'm not afraid and I won't be torn apart   We've had our time together      Now I make my new beginnings   I'll start again at any cost   I've learned a lot from losing you   But I've got nothing if I'm lost      And I keep hoping and I still believe in love   If I wait long enough, I know I'll be strong enough   Yeah, I keep hoping, I believe in faith and trust   I'm gonna find a way there are better days still ahead of us   I keep hoping      Now this candle burns low it won't last through the night   But I've found peace and I know it's all right   I try to understand what's been missing in my life   Between the darkness and the daylight      No I'm not expecting miracles   I've got my doubts like any other one   I've learned a lot from losing you   But I've got nothing if I'm lost      And I keep hoping, I still believe in love   If I wait long enough, I know I'll be strong enough   And I keep hoping, I believe in faith and trust   There'll be better days, they're on their way now      I keep hoping, I keep hoping   I keep hoping and praying baby, ooh   And I still believe in love      I keep hoping baby, ooh   I'm gonna find a way   I keep hoping baby   There are better days, ooh, better days      I keep hoping, hoping and praying   And I still believe in love   I keep hoping, I keep hoping, hey hey hey   I keep hoping
