(Just stay hopeful)
My father he would say
Just stay hopeful
It gets better one day
Just stay hopeful
My father he would say
Just stay hopeful
It gets better one day
Just stay hopeful
He left when I was nine
Me, my sister, mother would cry
His absence left a scar
And it would never heal
The pain of a loss
And the pain we would feel
He would always say
Just stay hopeful
It gets better one day
Just stay hopeful
My father he would say
Just stay hopeful
It gets better one day
Just stay hopeful
I wish that he was here
I wish that he could see
Everything I did
Id eventually succeed
My father he would say
It gets better one day
Better one day
Just stay hopeful
Just stay hopeful
Just stay hopeful
Just stay hopeful
(Just stay hopeful)
