Richard Marx: Have a little faith

You were just an innocent soul
When the darkness came and stole your light away
And how can you be anything but still
When the warmth of tomorrow’s buried in the chill of yesterday
Dive into the deep, find it in you to believe
In a place your wounded heart has never known
And if you dare reach for me, I won’t let you fall alone

Have a little faith
Have a little hope
Have a little trust
In the great unknown

Love’s been a razor deep in your chest
Made you feel you were runnin’ out of breath in slow quicksand
It’s no kind of life being locked down tight
A heart like a flower needs a little light and gentle hand
Let suspicion come to rest, cast away the loneliness
That you have carried too long
Wrap yourself around this moment
Now, before it’s gone

Have a little faith
Have a little hope
Have a little trust
In the great unknown

Let the memories go blind and release your mind
From the ghosts that rage inside of you
How can I get you to see, baby you could never be
Too lost for me to find you

You and I could be ones who believe
In a love that lingers eternally
You and I could stay this way
In a love that lingers eternally

Have a little faith…
