Some people like to wear rose coloured glasses

To help them see the world as alright

To me, it's all done up in shades of grey

I can see all the things that crawl out at night

  • Can you offer me a cup of hope today

  • 'Cause I woke up and had nothing nice to say

  • I can't make these bad feelings go away

  • So can you offer me a cup of hope today


Hearing the news only makes me depressed

And I know hiding is no solution

Maybe I'm as faulted as all the rest

In this world there is no absolution

  • Can you offer me a cup of hope today

  • 'Cause I woke up and had nothing nice to say

  • I can't make these bad feelings go away

  • So can you offer me a cup of hope today


Smile and the world smiles with you

At least that's what I've always been told

But how can I believe in fairy tales

When I've always found this world so cold

  • Can you offer me a cup of hope today

  • 'Cause I woke up and had nothing nice to say

  • I can't make these bad feelings go away

  • So can you offer me a cup of hope today
