Hoping, written by Juliette Ashby for her now deceased best friend (Amy Jade Winehouse). A track from her album “Bitter Sweet”.
[Chourus]
Hoping that you can understand that you are not the same
Hoping that you can try to shine the light for you today
Hoping that you can try to find the thing that caused you pain
Hoping that you can listen to what I need to say
[Verse 1]
I'm trying to look back to where it went wrong years ago
When I look back, it's plain to see that, there were other people pushing you down this road, and I can't lie how I still cry when I think how you lost control
If I'm your best friend, and that's the case then you would take my advice and come back home with me
[Hook]
Your family's been waiting, patiently anticipating.
Wondering and always be waiting.
Never know if it's worth the praying and
[Chourus]
Hoping that you can understand that you are not the same
Hoping that you can try to shine the light for you today
Hoping that you can try to find the thing that caused you pain
Hoping that you can listen to what I need to say
[Verse 2]
It's all going round and round again
I can't seem to work out if this is what you intend
Oh, but I keep it to my right side if you promise me you're going to act right and you not be sneaking around and getting high, cause you knowing now you need a clear mind
[Hook]
Your- your family's been waiting, patiently anticipating.
Wondering and always be waiting.
Never know if it's worth the praying and
[Chourus]
Hoping that you can understand that you are not the same
Hoping that you can try to shine the light for you today
Hoping that you can try to find the thing that caused you pain
Hoping that you can listen to what I need to say
