High Hopes lyrics

[Intro]

High, high hopes

[Chorus]

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing

Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision

Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Didn't know how but I always had a feeling

I was gonna be that one in a million

Always had high, high hopes

[Verse 1]

Mama said, fulfill the prophecy

Be something greater, go make a legacy

Manifest destiny, back in the days

We wanted everything, wanted everything

Mama said, burn your biographies

Rewrite your history, light up your wildest dreams

Museum victories, every day

We wanted everything, wanted everything

[Pre-Chorus]

Mama said don't give up, it's a little complicated

All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting

[Chorus]

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing

Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision

Always had high, high hopes

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Didn't know how but I always had a feeling

I was gonna be that one in a million

Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)

[Verse 2]

Mama said, it's uphill for oddities

The stranger crusaders, ain't ever wannabes

The weird and the novelties don't ever change

We wanted everything, wanted everything (High, high hopes)

[Bridge]

Stay up on that rise

Stay up on that rise and never come down, oh

Stay up on that rise

Stay up on that rise and never come down

[Pre-Chorus]

Mama said don't give up, it's a little complicated

All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting

They say it's all been done but they haven't seen the best of me-eh-eh-eh

So I got one more run and it's gonna be a sight to see-eh-eh-eh

[Bridge]

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing

Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision

Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Didn't know how but I always had a feeling

I was gonna be that one in a million

Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)

[Chorus]

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing

Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision

Always had high, high hopes

Had to have high, high hopes for a living

Didn't know how but I always had a feeling

I was gonna be that one in a million

Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)
