High Hopes (Live) Lyrics

[00:00]High Hopes (cover)

[00:00]END OF AN ERA

[00:00][01:22][01:45][02:29][03:47][04:32]

[00:25]Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young

[00:31]In a world of magnets and miracles

[00:37]Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary

[00:43]The ringing of the division bell had begun

[00:49]Along the long road and on down the causeway

[00:55]Do they still meet there by the cut

[01:01]There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps

[01:07]Running before time took our dreams away

[01:14]Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground

[01:20]To a life consumed by slow decay

[01:25][03:48]The grass was greener

[01:31][03:54]The light was brighter

[01:37][04:07]With friends surrounded

[01:43][04:01]The nights of wonder

[01:51]Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us

[01:56]To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side

[02:03]Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again

[02:08]Dragged by the force of some inner tide

[02:14]At a higher altitude with flag unfurled

[02:19]We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

[03:26]Encumbered forever by desire and ambition

[03:31]There's a hunger still unsatisfied

[03:37]Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon

[03:43]go down this road we've been so many times

[04:20]The dawn mist glowing

[04:25]The water flowing

[04:30]The endless river

[04:36]Forever and ever
