High Hopes lyrics

Artist  : Floyd Pink 
Song : High Hopes



 Send "High Hopes" Ringtone to your Cell 

 												
														   Beyond the horizon of the place
we lived when we were young

In a world of magnets and miracles

Our thoughts strayed constantly and without
boundary

The ringing of the division bell had begun



Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway

Do they still meet there by the Cut



There was a ragged band that followed in our
footsteps

Running before times took our dreams away

Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie
us to the ground

To a life consumed by slow decay



The grass was greener

The light was brighter

When friends surrounded

The nights of wonder



Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing
behind us

To a glimpse of how green it was on the other
side

Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back
again

Dragged by the force of some sleeping tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfurled

We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of
world



Encumbered forever by desire and ambition

There's a hunger still unsatisfied

Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon

Though down this road we've been so many times



The grass was greener

The light was brighter

The taste was sweeter

The nights of wonder

With friends surrounded

The dawn mist glowing

The water flowing

The endless river



Forever and ever
