Love Hopes and Dreams
(c)2001 Kenneth Franz

1)I promised you a castle
Thought we would have had it by now
I feel just like Jack with a handful of beans
Instead of holding on to that cow
I know I've messed a few things up
Most of our dreams have not come true
You haven't got what you deserve
When I said I'd take care of you

Ch)We keep trying to make ends meet
but sometimes we barely get by
People say you can live on love hopes and dreams
But Lord how we try.
We keep looking for that rainbow's end
to find the gold inside it's pot.
Sometimes you live on love hopes and dreams
when that's all you've got.

2)Robbing Peter to pay Paul
to buy us a little more time.
It seems that once the bills are paid
we're barely left with one thin dime.
But those bills keep piling up
My check is gone before it hits my hand
We've cut back to bare necessities
and I still can't understand

Chorus:
Br) You're love keeps me going
to push on another day
I still hope to get us through this
and dream of taking you away
Chorus:
