Hope Sighs Eternal (song)

Almost
the sunshine did
something to me.
Almost
his smile sucked
you under with me.
Almost
we shared
most sacred memory.
Almost
I dared to break
these chains binding me.

Swim with me my love,
Hold my hand and don’t let go.
Water is never too deep to,
Wash to tears from my eyes.
Sit with me, my love,
Watch the bluebonnets grow.
It’s just you and I now,
Listening to eternity sigh.

Almost
dream thinner
washed the canvas clean.
Almost
little blue boy
learned to scream.
Almost
I died and took
Heaven down with me.

But then I remembered
Almost
Is not yet achieved.
