To wait in silence for a sign of hope,
with love so wrong I could not cope.
For all I hope would be so wrong ,
must wait in silence and be strong.

I wish there could have been a way,
within my life for you to stay.
Wrong to hope when you are not free,
and could never give love back to me.

Now as my heart lies silently still,
hope is gone I have lost all will.
Hope is hopeless when hope is wrong,
for in your arms I don't belong.

No matter how much I wish it were true,
now I give up all hope of being with you.
I should not wish to ever feel such pain,
nor to cry this many tears again.

Hope will return to me I am sure,
here in silence with faith as I endure.
I will hope again when my heart is set free,
from this love for you deep inside of me.
