High Hopes

Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldnt make a killing
Didnt have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didnt know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
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, everyday
We wanted everything, wanted everything
Mama said dont give up, its a little complicated
All tied up, no more love and Id hate to see you waiting
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldnt make a killing
Didnt have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didnt know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
Mama said
Its uphill for oddities
The stranger crusaders
Aint ever wannabes
The weird and the novelties
Dont ever change
We wanted everything, wanted everything
Stay up on that rise
Stay up on that rise and never come down
Stay up on that rise
Stay up on that rise and never come down
Mama said dont give up, its a little complicated
All tied up, no more love and Id hate to see you waiting
They say its all been done but they havent seen the best of me
So I got one more run and its gonna be a sight to see
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldnt make a killing
Didnt have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didnt know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldnt make a killing
Didnt have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didnt know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
