Chair by the Window, Quiet Hope
by Max Solano
“Three in the morning, a paper cup of tea, and hope that arrives quietly. I wrote it for the people on the night shift.”

Lyrics
Three in the morning, the corridor hums A paper cup of tea and a clock that quietly drums I sit by the window, the city is blue Holding a little hope for you Breathe in slow, breathe out slow Morning's coming, soft and low Quiet hope, quiet hope Sitting by the window, learning how to cope Quiet hope, quiet hope Sunrise on the way, we will be okay Quiet hope A kind voice whispers, it won't be long A nurse walks by with a gentle song I fold my hands and I count the light Waiting for the end of the night Breathe in slow, breathe out slow Morning's coming, soft and low Quiet hope, quiet hope Sitting by the window, learning how to cope Quiet hope, quiet hope Sunrise on the way, we will be okay Quiet hope A little gold on the window frame Someone calls out a familiar name I stand up slowly, the day is new Good news is coming through Quiet hope, quiet hope Sitting by the window, learning how to cope Quiet hope, quiet hope Sunrise on the way, we will be okay Quiet hope Quiet hope We will be okay
