They say I’m a hopeless romantic
That doesn’t describe me so well
For I am a hopeful romantic
There’s so many ways you can tell

I still believe in love at first sight
And soulmates and love songs that come in the night
Like Streisand and Redford the way that they were
Love is forever and there is no cure

A hopeless romantic
A terrible plight
A hopeless romantic
The sorriest sight
A hopeful romantic
The happiest guy
A hopeful romantic
Is someone like I

Slow dances and kisses that last all day long
And words of romance in a favorite song
Flowers and roses and soft candlelight
The warmth of a fire when holding you tight

I still believe there is someone for me
The way that they were is the way we can be
I’m hoping its you
And that your lonely too
For a hopeful romantic like me

It’s so very tragic
A hopeless romantic
It’s all just the sorriest sight
But I am not hopeless but hopeful
It’s the difference between day and night
