about

From our album Grapevine, 2004

lyrics

I know we’ll never see
Trees that used to be
Blanketing Ohio
The panther and the Iroquois

And geese that used to fly
Blacken autumn skies
South across Ohio
South towards Mexico
Not long ago

CHORUS:
Gives me hope against hope
Hope against hope
Hope against hope

I know that you and I
Will never spark prairie fires
Or walk to Oregon
But we still soldier on and on

To take a hopeless stand
On wild Dakota land
After you and me
The Snake and Colorado will run free

CHORUS:

Montana blue
Illinois gold and green
Tears from your eyes
I don’t want to fight
But I can’t sleep

Hope Against Hope
