They Hoped For A Name Lyrics
They hoped for a name
They hoped for a promise
That someone to love them would still
Walk among us
A future with children
With husband, wife
They cheered and they toasted
To youth and to life
They danced till the morning
They drank and took flight
The names of their lovers
Were heard in the night
The sun stayed above
The moon lingered under
By morning the dancers
Will start to wonder:
"Had it all been a dream?
Had it all been a blunder?
And who was that foreign girl
With a song made in thunder?"
Years and years they came
To sing to each other
The song of the sister
The song of the brother
A future with children
With husband, wife
They cheered and they toasted
To youth and to life
They danced till the morning
They drank and took flight
The names of their lovers
Were heard in the night
The sun stayed above
The moon lingered under
By morning the dancers
Will start to wonder:
"Had it all been a dream?
Had it all been a blunder?
And who was that foreign girl
With a song made in thunder?"
