A Grain of Hope (1999)
1. I am tired and I’m going to bed.
Tomorrow is different.
Tomorrow,
I find the most beautiful girlfriend,
The sweetest honey on Earth.
Tomorrow,
I come clean and clear.
I quit smoking,
I stop boozing.
Tomorrow, I am free and rich:
Just wait.
2. Hate me, hurt me, and humiliate me;
I still won’t kill your grain of hope.
Some Gods like to give hope,
Some Gods deny it completely.
Who is the more compassionate?
Who is the wiser?
I know this grain of hope is oiling my wheels.
I know I can still move mountains, divert rivers.
I can still fall in love, be rude, and forgive.
I won’t kill your grain of hope;
Your grain of faith!
