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
