From: Musicjim

Hello there. Again, I've checked the digitrad and other websites, but I can't seem to find any lyrics for David Mallett's songs, and the ones I do find aren't the ones I'm looking for.
I'm looking for the lyrics (and possibly chords) to "Hope For One And All" off of his "In the Falling Dark" CD.
Anyone a Dave Mallett fan?
Jim

Here's a partial lyric, transcribed from sound samples:

HOPE FOR ONE AND ALL
David Mallett

If the moon still moves the deep blue sea, and rules the hearts of men,
If the world keeps turnin' quietly, here we go again.
If the winter grass turns April green when the rain begins to fall,
If there's water flowin' from the stream, there's hope for one and all.
There's hope you and me, my friend, with our backs against the wall.
If there's water flowin' from the stream, there's hope for one and all.

I think the next to last line should read "There's hope for you and me".

RIP, friend
David Mallett - Hope for One and All lyrics


If the morning star still disappears behind a sky of blue
If people rise and go to work like they always do
As long as young folks fall in love and kids keep growing tall
With the earth below and the sky above
there's hope for one and all

If the moon still moves the deep blue sea and rules the hearts of men
If the world keeps turning quietly, here we go again
If the winter grass turns April-green when the rain begins to fall
If there's water flowing from the stream
there's hope for one and all

There's hope for you and me my friend, with our backs against the wall
If there's water flowing from the stream
there's hope for one and all

If a man still does the best he can, though no one cares
If mother's still rock their babes to sleep, and say a little prayer
If the old car starts when the wind blows cold, way down in the fall
If there's one good spark in the falling dark
there's hope for one and all

There's hope for you and me my friend, with our backs against the wall
If there's one good spark in the falling dark
there's hope for one and all.
