Avenue of Hope

Along the avenue of hope The footsteps falter, the fingers grope And days, stretch out, beneath the sun No-one's born, and no-one dies, no-one loves, so no-one cries And we wait to see just what we will become Don't let me falter, don't let me ride Don't let the earth in me subside Let me see just who I will become You're like the clouds in my home town You just grow fat and hang around And you're days stretch out beneath the sun And you don't live, you don't die, you don't love so you don't cry And we wait, to see just what we will become Don't let me borrow, don't let me bring Don't let me wallow, don't make me sing Let me see just who I will become Don't let me falter, don't let me hide Don't let someone else decide Just who or what I will become Don't make me borrow, don't make me bring Don't let them wallow, don't let them sing Let them stretch out, beneath the sun
