Hopefully Waiting

I did not write this but I very well could have. I feel every word of this from time to time when my symptoms come back and take over my life. And some of you out there may feel the same. Thank God that my good days in the last month have far out numbered and outweighed my bad days.

Hopefully Waiting

Day after day she asks herself,
Why does it have to be?
She sees others that are healthy
They're living her fantasy
Working, buying homes, raising families
All the things she’d be at thirty-three
Instead she spends her days searching the net
Searching for every cure in the alphabet

Until she finds it, she'll keep hopefully waiting

Hopefully waiting for the day to come
When they’ll find the answers and she can become
The girl she used to be before this heartache, can’t ya see
That girl is lost somewhere, but she’s waiting to be free
But for now she’ll keep hopefully waiting

Everyone says she must have faith
She's given no more than she can take
She's got to remain strong and brave
For the life she wants to make
She tries hard to believe that better days are ahead
Then the pain hits her so hard and then she forgets
She prays someday they’ll have the wisdom to say
We know how to heal you, so don't you dismay

But until then, she’ll keep hopefully waiting

Hopefully waiting for the day to come
When they’ll find the answers and I can become
The girl I used to me before this heartache, can’t ya see
That girl is lost in me, but she’s waiting to be free
But for now I’ll keep hopefully waiting

This battle is not over yet
Not till God says it is
Somehow she will get through this
She’ll find a new road to take
Then, if it doesn’t last, she will not forsake
The doctors say it’s tentative and not guaranteed to cure
But, she won't let them take away her hope
Her strength to endure

She's gonna keep hopefully waiting

Hopefully waiting for the day to come
When she’ll have the answers and she’ll be the one
To win this battle she never wanted to fight
But for now, she’ll keep hopefully waiting, hopefully waiting, waiting
For that day is in sight
