High Hopes Lyrics

[00:08.58] High, high hopes
[00:10.75] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[00:13.59] Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
[00:16.72] Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
[00:19.58] Always had high, high hopes (high, high hopes)
[00:22.43] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[00:25.38] Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
[00:28.25] I was gonna be that one in a million
[00:31.33] Always had high, high hopes
[00:34.97] Mama said, "Fulfill the prophecy
[00:38.07] Be something greater, go make a legacy"
[00:40.95] Manifest destiny back in the days
[00:43.26] We wanted everything, wanted everything
[00:46.66] Mama said, "Burn your biographies
[00:49.65] Rewrite your history, light up your wildest dreams"
[00:52.56] Museum victories everyday
[00:54.92] We wanted everything, wanted everything
[00:57.89] Mama said, "Don't give up, it's a little complicated
[01:03.63] All tied up, no more love, and I'd hate to see you waiting"
[01:09.35] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[01:12.44] Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
[01:15.29] Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
[01:18.03] Always had high, high hopes
[01:20.82] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[01:23.74] Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
[01:26.80] I was gonna be that one in a million
[01:29.68] Always had high, high hopes (high, high hopes)
[01:33.47] Mama said, "It's uphill for oddities
[01:36.62] Stranger crusaders ain't ever wannabes"
[01:39.33] The weird and the novelties don't ever change
[01:41.72] We wanted everything, wanted everything
[01:45.61] Stay up on that rise, stay up on that rise
[01:48.79] And never come down, oh-oh
[01:51.61] Stay up on that rise, stay up on that rise
[01:54.63] And never come down
[01:56.17] Mama said, "Don't give up, it's a little complicated
[02:02.15] All tied up, no more love, and I'd hate to see you waiting
[02:08.02] They say it's all been done, but they haven't seen the best of me-eh-eh-eh
[02:13.82] So I got one more run, and it's gonna be a sight to see-eh-eh-eh"
[02:19.48] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[02:22.39] Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
[02:25.40] Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
[02:28.24] Always had high, high hopes (high, high hopes)
[02:31.16] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[02:34.16] Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
[02:37.19] I was gonna be that one in a million
[02:39.92] Always had high, high hopes (high, high hopes)
[02:42.98] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[02:45.98] Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
[02:48.86] Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
[02:51.73] Always had high, high hopes
[02:54.63] Had to have high, high hopes for a living
[02:57.54] Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
