Hope for the Best

people never change
but some learn a lesson
a few of them are strange
and others never listen
hope for the best
and wait for the worst

even though you try
to sort through the rubble
some will make you cry
and others make you trouble
hope for the best
and wait for the worst

but once you find a friend
on whom you can depend
hold on and wait on the weather
if you can't see the sun
two are better than one

every day, every day
happy that i met you
find a way, find a way
to show you that i love you
when we're not together
i feel like i'm not all there

i will never change
but i've learned a lesson
maybe a little strange
but i always listen
i hope for the best
and wait for the worst

and as the years go by
i've seen reasons why
i can't do this myself
and i need your help
