It was only for a second, no more than a moment I swear
We held each other’s glances then she was not there
And I’m sorry if it made you smaller
I’m sorry if it made you fade away
And I’m sorry if it took you for granted
Or undermined your grace

I hope that it’s alright
I hope that it’s ok
I hope that you’ll still smile at me today

Four years still seems a bit too soon
And I still hear your voice sometimes in the next room
And I try to pile the papers
Away from the door
And I still keep all your pictures
Framed in the hall

I hope that it’s alright
I hope that it’s ok
I hope that you’ll still smile at me today

Today we met for coffee and we plan to meet again
And I wish that could ask for forgiveness in your name
And I’m sorry if that’s your whisper
In the storm outside the house
And I’m sorry if you’re not the last thing on my mind
Before the lights go out

I hope that it’s alright
I hope that it’s ok
I hope that you’ll still smile down on me today

I hope that it’s ok
I hope that it’s alright
I hope that you don’t look down tonight
I hope that it’s ok
I hope that it’s alright
And I’m sorry but I hope that you don’t look down tonight
