I Search For Hope - Song by Patti Wood

I looked for her in the woods today,

took off my shoes to see her.

Put feathers in my hair to hear blue jays.

Twirled in my robe of Douglas fir.

 

Chorus

I stretched out my arms pushed shadows away.

Skimmed stones ‘cross my worries to keep them at bay.

I search for hope every day.

I search for hope every day.

 

I hung fairy lights on the trees

hoping to get their company.

Danced in a parade of buzzing bees.

Got the stings, hoping for honey.

 

Chorus

I stretched out my arms pushed shadows away

Skimmed stones 'cross my worries to keep them at bay

I search for hope every day

I search for hope every day

 

Bridge

Lay down in dry riverbed to ease my thirst.

Feel the concert in the ground, solace in the dirt.

Waiting for the breeze to soothe my hurt

I search I search I search 

 

Chorus

I stretched out my arms push shadows away

Skimmed stones 'cross my worries to keep them at bay

I search for hope every day

I search for hope every day

 

Wrap my loneliness in yellow vines

Lay my palm on rough bark

to hear her heart, is she listening to mine?

Will she spark? Will she spark?

Chorus

I stretched out my arms push shadows away

Skim stones across my worries to keep them at bay

I search for hope every day

I search for hope every day
