I keep hoping to see you go further in this area.

But it comes often enough for the people to keep hoping.

And I kept hoping against hope that something would change each night.

I keep hoping "one of them will make me understand why the guy did it."

We all keep hoping it won't be too long before she has a son.

Knew about how long we've known one another, what we kept hoping we'd see in him.

But we kept hoping she'd get on better until that night.

Yet we keep hoping to make sense of the big picture.

We kept hoping for days he'd turn up but he never did.
