BAND OF HOPE (Mike Gibbins)
[from In The Meantime CD - recorded 2003 - released U.S. 2003]

Love... love is everything
Love is a song to sing

Fly... fly on heaven's wings, into the clouds
Fly... up on angels' wings, through the clouds

The band of hope... abandoned hope
The band of hope... abandoned hope
The band of hope... abandoned hope
The band of hope... abandoned hope
And that ain't funny

Love... love is everything
Gives me everything

I... I see everything from angels' wings
Fly... fly into your mind, see what I find

The band of hope, they smoke their dope
The band of hope, the band of hope
The band of hope, the band of hope
The band's a joke, the band's a joke
And that ain't funny

Love... love is everything
Love is a song to sing
So sing it now

[guitar solo]
I... I see everything, from angels' wings

Two wings a-beating
Love comes a-creepin'
Feels like the real thing
It feels like the real thing
Two wings a-beating
Love comes a-creepin'
Feels like the real thing
It feels like the real thing

Two hearts a-beating
Love is for keeping
It feels like the real thing
It feels like the real thing

Two wings a-beating
Two wings a-beating
It feels like the real thing
It feels like the real thing

Love... love is everything
Gives me everything

I... I see everything, from angels' wings
Fly... fly into your mind, see what I find

[instrumental break with drum patterns]

They'll find a way to use me
Heaven knows they tried to screw me
Don't take me to the limit
Give me peace of mind

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

They'll find a way to use me
Heaven know they'll try to amuse me
They take me to the limit
Give me no peace of mind

They'll find a way to use me
Heaven knows they'll try to confuse me
They take me to the limit
Give me no peace of mind
