“hope” is an unrequited love song packed with the simple wish to just be with the person you like.

The lyrics convey that, even while feeling cornered by a love that won’t go the way you want, it still makes you feel “it has to be that person.” It poignantly speaks for the small wishes of those in one-sided love.

This song can apply to many forms of unrequited love—before confessing your feelings, or for a former partner after a breakup.

Listening to it while you’re in unrequited love will make you empathize and cry, yet it’s also a supportive song that can make you feel like you want to share your feelings.
