If I could change one thing

This is what I'd do

I would take some hope

And wrap it up like new

In a pretty box

With strings, and ribbons, and bows

And take it to the people

The specific ones of those

Who need a little hope

In a pretty box

Who need a little light

To break the many locks

Who need a little love 

To melt the ice away

They just need a little hope

To get them through the day. 

To get them to tomorrow

To get them across the line

To chase away the nightmares

To get them through the night

So I'd change the lack of hope 

And give it out like it's free

Because I know how it feels

To not have hope for anything.
