Next Hello
by Andrew Housholder

Draw a line between time and space
Take a minute just to sit here, cry and sing
A song for love and a song for all that's lost
Lost for a moment, but I'll hold you again

You were just so beautiful
Purity stained the very eyes I loved to see
I heard hope in every sound I heard you make
You spoke only to me

I guess we hit the end of the line
Here's where the tears can't help but fall
I stretch my eyes as far as my eyes can see
I can see you smiling; you're smiling down on me

There is so much I want to say to you
So many things I had planned
Holding you here with that look in your eye
I can't bring myself to say goodbye
So until the next hello
