Hope for Tomorrow - a serious parody
 
Sometimes, the pain of life
can hurt so bad and while you're hurtin'
the stress can cause more strife
and you are left feeling uncertain.

You've fought, you still survive
and you don't try to borrow sorrow.
You strive to keep alive
hope for tomorrow.

You've held your newborn child
your heart was filled by this endeavour!
You smiled that special smile
and realized that love's forever.

You know that life goes on
despite the pain, despite the sorrow.
You face the coming day.
Hope for tomorrow.

I've had times, I'm sure you've had them too,
sometimes when life is overwhelming you.
Just keep the faith, despite the pain
for the sun will shine again.
Try to be kind and you will find
hope for tomorrow.

We do just what we can
despite our varied situations.
For the hope of a man
rests in the future generations.

My money is on us
I am secure, yes, I'm very sure.
indeed oh yes, indeed
Hope for tomorrow.

Don't try to be anything you're not.
Appreciate everything you've got.
Count all the good, forget the bad.
Count every happy tear you've had.
Let FREEDOM reign
in peace again.
Hope for tomorrow.








This is a serious parody of the song 'My Way' immortalized by the legendary Frank Sinatra. It was an assignment/challenge for me from our very own JollyNobleFrog...check out her CTSS challenge
