Higher Hopes
You hold my heart fragile in your hands
These minutes count like hours now
And every day brings this closer
It took a while to clear my head
Went out for hours and wept for everything that I couldn't know yet
As I lay this life in these hands now
Don't you break these hearts of mine
And I brace myself
I will brace myself for everything that I don't know yet
It's really been no time at all
But every hour feels like days now
This is a life I'd bargain for
These moments slip through our fingers like grains of sand
Never to be lived again
Mere reflections of their eternal worth
Echoes that sound on long after we are gone
Am I to believe that there is more to this
As I stand before you here with open arms?
Facing up to nothing less than higher hopes, than higher hopes
You leave me holding on to higher hopes
These minutes count like hours now
And every day brings this closer
It took a while to clear my head
Went out for hours and wept for everything that I couldn't know yet
As I lay this life in these hands now
Don't you break these hearts of mine
And I brace myself
I will brace myself for everything that I don't know yet
It's really been no time at all
But every hour feels like days now
This is a life I'd bargain for
These moments slip through our fingers like grains of sand
Never to be lived again
Mere reflections of their eternal worth
Echoes that sound on long after we are gone
Am I to believe that there is more to this
As I stand before you here with open arms?
Facing up to nothing less than higher hopes, than higher hopes
You leave me holding on to higher hopes
