Kate Rusby
Only Hope
[Verse 1]
There is peace for the restless one
There is peace for the restless one
She was on the verge of thinking
That her soul was lost and sinking
There is peace for the restless one

[Chorus]
And you, you were my only hope
But could you really care for me?
I even asked the Holy Ghost
Are you the one I love the most?
Are you the one to set me free?

[Verse 2]
There is hope for the broken one
There is hope for the broken one
He was gone from the land
When Cupid reached and took his hand
There is hope for the broken one

[Chorus]
And you, you were my only hope
But could you really care for me?
I even asked the Holy Ghost
Are you the one I love the most?
Are you the one to set me free?
[Verse 3]
There'll be shame for the one so proud
There'll be shame for the one so proud
Pride comes before a tumble
Let her life go on and crumble
There'll be shame for the one so proud

[Chorus]
And you, you were my only hope
But could you really care for me?
I even asked the Holy Ghost
Are you the one I love the most?
Are you the one to set me free?

[Verse 4]
But selfish will be the one crowned
Selfish will be the one crowned
He will be crowned in poisoned ivy
Let the cries go on by me
And selfish will be the one crowned

[Chorus]
And you, you were my only hope
But could you really care for me?
I even asked the Holy Ghost
Are you the one I love the most?
Are you the one to set me free?
