This old town seen better days
I see boards like band-aids on window panes
Stores on Main Street look betrayed and the for sale signs have all begun to fade
Folks out here live on faith
You can almost see it flow like water
Keepin dreams alive day after day here in Hopeville
There's no talk of givin up
Here in Hopeville
No one here sings leavin songs
They don't wanna dwell on the things gone wrong
They'll shake your hand and leave no doubt
If you choose to stay they'll always help you out
Folks out here live on faith
You can almost see it flow like water
Keepin dreams alive day after day
Here in Hopeville,
There's no talk of givin up
Here in Hopeville
Here i Hopeville
There's no talk of giving up
Here in Hopeville
When the sun went down tonight,
I knew somehow it would be alright
He called to say he's comin home to stay
Folks out here live on faith
You can almost see it flow like water
Keepin dreams alive day after day
Here in Hopeville,
There's no talk of givin up
Here in Hopeville
Oh there's just no talk of givin up
Here in Hopeville
Were not about to give it up
Here in Hope---ville
Here in Hopeville
Nananananananaah
Here in Hopeville
