High Hopes

You'll see me right at the edge
I'm the words that nobody said
I wonder how far we’ll go
I wonder how far we'll go

The church bells sing to the poor
The rich keep searching for more
If this is the world we know
Please God, will You save my soul

No, I'm never gonna start a war
Yeah, I’m only gonna start to pray
I wonder if we'll grow old
I wonder why we don't know

Promise I will see you again
What's broken we can mend
I wonder how far we'll go
I wonder how we've got high hopes

We've got high hopes
Through these high hopes
Still my heart grows

The light burns deep in your eyes
The weight lifts off of my back
I wonder if you can know
How I'd never want to see you go

But all I hear is a storm
Your words hold firm in the night
I wonder if we should know
I wonder how far we’ll go

No, I’m never gonna start a war
Yeah, I'm only gonna start to say
I wonder how far we’ll go
I wonder why we don't know

Give me life with someone to serve
Give the love I'll never deserve
I wonder how far we'll go
I wonder how we’ve got high hopes

We've got high hopes
Through these high hopes
Still my heart knows
