Hope In A Hopeless World (What Kind Of Love Album Version)

Ooh, ooh

Looking for hope

Baby born in New York City

Wrapped in a blanket that's tattered and worn

Mother done the best she can

Picking hope in a hopeless world, yeah

Eldest son, he stayed in school

He listened to his mother, didn't drink or use

Yet, yet every job he wants he gets refused

It takes hope in a hopeless world

Looking for hope in a hopeless world

Searching for love in such hateful times

Trying to stay strong when my mind gets weak

Looking for hope in a hopeless world

Looking for hope

On the corner, stands a young girl

The home she left was from the better part of town

Daddy did things she just can't talk about

Is there hope in a hopeless world?

You got a quarter for the homeless man?

Can you spare some change for the soldiers who fought the war?

Put some money in those hats and those tents

Give them hope in a hopeless world

Looking for hope in a hopeless world

Trying to find love in such hateful times

Make my world repeat (Looking for hope in a hopeless world)

To everybody (Ease my mind, ease my mind)

Ooh, you gotta listen to the voice inside

It speaks of love, don't compromise

Realize time is passing you by

Mountains to climb, can't be standing still

No, no, don't be standing still

Church is full but the prayers won't seem to be heard

Saturday's child don't wanna go to Sunday school

Whatever happened to the golden rule?

Teach them hope in a hopeless world

Somebody out there's got to listen

Yeah, somebody out there's got to know what I'm talking 'bout

Raise your hand, raise your hand if you're with me

Give them hope in a hopeless world

Looking for hope in a hopeless world

I've got to find that love in this hateful time

I want to repeat to everybody

Oh, yeah, oh

Somebody out there's got to listen

Somebody, somebody out there's got to know what I'm talking 'bout

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh yeah, oh yeah

Searching for the hope, looking for it

Searching for the peace, looking for it

Searching for the hope, looking for it

Searching for the peace, looking for it

Searching for the hope, looking for it

Searching for the peace, looking for it

Searching for the hope, looking for it

Searching for the peace, looking for it

Searching for the hope, looking for it

Searching for the peace, looking for it

Searching for the hope, looking for it

Searching for the peace, looking for it
