The only place that I ever loved Is a place I left behind

Goodbye Mr Blue

Let Hope Never Disappear

[Verse]
Cracked pavement beneath my feet
Streetlights buzz a sad song repeat
Shadows lengthen as the day surrenders
I remember you you remember

[Pre Chorus]
Is this all there is
A bitter kiss

[Chorus]
Let hope never disappear no
Let hope never disappear
We hold on tight yeah
Through the night yeah
Let hope never disappear

[Verse 2]
Empty bottles and broken glass
Another memory meant to pass
But something lingers in the air
A silent promise a whispered prayer

[Pre Chorus]
Is this all we get
I ain't finished yet

[Chorus]
Let hope never disappear no
Let hope never disappear
We hold on tight yeah
Through the night yeah
Let hope never disappear

[Verse 3]
Time has passed.
The house with windows with broken glass
The book of memories is closed
But beyond the darkness there is light
A new vision, a new direction

[Pre Chorus]
Is this all there is
A bitter kiss

Let Hope Never Disappear

Lyrics:
In us something growls—no plea, just sign;
Dress shoes full of forest sand—ready on the line.
On paths where memory powders down to dust,
Too soon departed; breath turns slow and hushed.
Family, tradition—half-bowed in the rite;
I lift a little pebble—same longing, tight.
My polished soles scrape hard along time’s flint;
We cling to leaves that whisper in the…

Wind over us, wind on the face,
Wind—wind—our hearts grow soft and light.

(2x)
Wind over us, wind on the face;
Wind through this place—our hearts grow soft and light.
Wind over us, wind on the face;
Wind through this place—our hearts grow soft and light.

No grave—only ash that travels, lets go in the wind;
Learn to bear what will not fall—be patient, kind.
Small stones in my palm—mute language, broken band;
We honor without signs—the breathing no-man’s land.
Between the ribs a hollow bell is spanned;
It rings for all we carry like a handful of sand.

[Chorus] (2x)
Wind over us, wind on the face;
Wind through this place—our hearts grow soft and light.
Wind over us, wind on the face;
Wind through this place—our hearts grow soft and light.

She stands—a young widow—still in the square;
Her voice cuts through manners—pain’s the only prayer.
Relics I call pebbles—steam and moss for heat;
Too-early leaving cuts the hand; time ticks in linen sheet.

I weigh the stones—can weight restore his place?
I whisper, “Where’s his grave?”—too hurried a chase.
He sighs, “Only ash—no granite, no stone.”
Our shoulders drop; the silence walks alone.
“Ash,” he repeats—like air above the sea;
I nod, let go, and trace the edge more free.
Names rise like grains; what’s near fits in the hand—
Enough for those who stay to understand.

(2x)
Wind over us, wind on the face;
Wind through this place—our hearts grow soft and light.
Wind over us, wind on the face;
Wind through this place—our hearts grow soft and light.
