Liner Notes

Linger Notes:
• Author/Lyricist: Carl Crosby
• Tags: #hope #unexpectedplaces #kindness #ballad #life #journey #inspiration
• Collaboration: Collaboration for the music is welcome because Carl needs musicians.
• Style:
• This is what I hear when writing this. It is a suggestion A ballad style would be fitting, with a gentle, reflective tone. Think of artists like James Taylor, John Denver, or Norah Jones. A slow to moderate tempo with acoustic instrumentation (guitar, piano, soft percussion) would suit the theme of finding hope in unexpected places.

Lyrics

Verse 1
In a world so cold, where shadows fall,
I wandered lost, feeling small.
But in the darkest night, a light shone through,
From the least expected place, I found you.

Chorus
Finding hope in unexpected places,
In the smiles of strangers’ faces.
In the kindness of a friend, in a simple hand to lend,
Finding hope, where I never knew it could begin.

Verse 2
Through the storms and trials, the battles I’ve fought,
In the quiet moments, the lessons life taught.
A gentle whisper, a soft embrace,
Hope emerged from the unlikeliest space.

Chorus
Finding hope in unexpected places,
In the smiles of strangers’ faces.
In the kindness of a friend, in a simple hand to lend,
Finding hope, where I never knew it could begin.

Verse 3
Walking through the park, where the children play,
Their laughter ringing out, brightens up my day.
In their innocent eyes, I see the spark,
A reminder that hope can always find its mark.

Chorus
Finding hope in unexpected places,
In the smiles of strangers’ faces.
In the kindness of a friend, in a simple hand to lend,
Finding hope, where I never knew it could begin.

Verse 4
In the letters from home, in the songs we sing,
In the warmth of the sun, in the bloom of spring.
Every heartbeat, every breath we take,
Holds a promise that hope will never break.

Bridge
When the world feels heavy and the path unclear,
Look around, hope is always near.
In the smallest acts of love, in the stars above,
Hope is waiting, just open up your heart.

Chorus
Finding hope in unexpected places,
In the smiles of strangers’ faces.
In the kindness of a friend, in a simple hand to lend,
Finding hope, where I never knew it could begin.

Outro
So I’ll keep on walking, through the highs and lows,
Knowing hope is there, where the wildflowers grow.
In every heartache, in every twist and bend,
I’ll find hope, and let it be my friend.
