'Only Hope' by Mandy Moore and Switchfoot

There's a song thats inside of my soul.
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again.
I'm awake in the infinite cold,
but you sing to me over and over and over again.


So I lay my head back down,
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours.
I pray to be only yours.

I know now you're my only hope.

Sing to me the song of the stars.
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
When it feels like my dreams are so far,
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.


I give you my apathy. I'm giving you all of me.
I want your symphony. Singing in all that I am.
At the top of my lungs, I'm giving it back.


This was one of the main songs in the movie 'A Walk to Remember'. Bex loaned me the DVD and I sat in bed and watched it last night. The song sounded so familiar and it took me a while to figure out where I'd heard it before. I thought at first maybe Sharee had sung it for an item in church, eventually I realised that some people did it in the talent quest at HM Rage. I think they actually won one of the categories. It's such a beautiful song. I replayed the chapter of the movie when Mandy Moore's character sings it like 4 times!!
