HER HOPE             
DAN ROBINSON, BENN CUTARELLI

VERSE
HER SON WALKS ACROSS THE STAGE SO CONFIDENT 
LOOKS TO THE SKY SAID I KEPT MY PROMISE
HOW DO I LOOK IN A CAP AND GOWN? 
HE LOOKS OVER AT HIS DAD WHO GIVES A FIST PUMP 
BOTH KNEW LAST YEAR LIFE HIT A SPEED BUMP
BUT OH HOW HE’S TURNED IT AROUND 
HE DIDN’T LET HIS MOTHER DOWN

CHORUS
HER HOPE
WAS HER SON WOULD ATTEND THE ACADEMY
HER HOPE
WAS HE’D GET HIS DEGREE
OH… THAT WAS HER HOPE

VERSE
HER DAUGHTER LOOKS BEAUTIFUL IN HER MOTHER’S DRESS WALKIN’ DOWN THE AISLE 
FLASHIN’ THAT BIG SMILE
PUTS HER ARMS AROUND HER DAD, THEY EMBRACE 
THEY HAVEN’T ALWAYS SEEN EYE TO EYE 
BUT THIS YEAR THEY’VE MOVED THRU THE ROUGH TIMES
NOW THEY’VE ARRIVED AT A BETTER PLACE
IT’S LIKE LOOKIN’ IN HER MOTHER’S FACE

CHORUS
HER HOPE
WAS HER DAUGHTER WOULD GROW TO BE HAPPY
HER HOPE
WAS SHE’D RAISE A FAMILY
OH… THAT WAS HER HOPE 

BRIDGE
SHE WAS MY BEST FRIEND, ALWAYS HAD A KIND WORD TO SAY 
THE FAMILY AND I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE TODAY
YOUR DONATIONS WILL HELP FAMILIES COPE WITH THE TRAUMA AND THE LOSS
AND SUPPORT HER HOPE 
 
CHORUS
HER HOPE
WAS NO ONE ELSE EVER SUFFERS LIKE THIS 
HER HOPE
WAS NO ONE MISS THOSE MOMENTS WITH THEIR KIDS 
OH…THAT WAS HER HOPE
