I Hope Lyrics

Sunday morning, heard the preacher say “Thou shall not kill” I don't wanna hear nothing else about killing And that it's God's will   'Cause our children are watching us They put their trust in us They're gonna be like us
So let's learn from our history And do it differently   (I hope) For more love, more joy and laughter (I hope) We'll have more than we'll ever need (I hope) We'll have more happy ever afters (I hope) We can all live more fearlessly
And we can lose all the pain and misery (I hope) I hope
Oh Rosie, her man he gets too rough All she can say is, “He's a good man He don't mean no harm He was brought up that way”    Our children are watching us They put their trust in us They're gonna be like us
It's okay for us to disagree We can work it out lovingly   (I hope) More love, more joy and laughter (I hope) You'll have more than you'll ever need (I hope) There'll be more happy ever afters (I hope) We can all live more fearlessly
And we can lose all the pain and misery (I hope) I hope
There must be a way to change what's going on No I don't have all the answers   But I hope For more love, more joy and laughter (I hope) You'll have more than you'll ever need (I hope) You'll have more happy ever afters (I hope) And you can all live more fearlessly
And you can lose all your pain and misery (I hope) I hope
I hope I hope I hope …
