Little Bit Of Hope
Little Bit Of Hope
Through the eye of a needle passes
The pieces of my broken heart
All my dreams of you and love
Disappear as if my smile
Drains away like sand
In your hour glass
All because a little bit of hope
Collects to hear your voice
And yet your answer is silence.
I am not your prize it seems sadly
Are you so cold as to freeze
The Sun so my flower fades
That no rain collects
At my roots that long for wings
So I may fly to your Heaven
Let me see and hear you
That I may touch happiness
And taste your honey once more.
