Idioms - meaning of "Hopes don´t fall to ground"?

Hi everybody,

I would be very happy if someone could answer me what the meaning of the proverb (or the saying): "Hopes don´t fall to ground" .

I have been searching and I don´t manage to find it!

Are you sure this is a known English saying? I've never heard of it. Of course, this could be down to my ignorance, but the fact that there are zero Google hits for "Hopes don't fall to ground" (and "Hopes don't fall to the ground") makes me wonder.
