Nightwish - High Hopes Lyrics

Send "High Hopes" ringtone to your cell

[Pink Floyd cover]

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 to the causeway,

Do they still meet there by the Cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps

Running before time 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

With friends surrounding

The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of the bridges glowing behind us

To a glimpse at our great lose of the other side

Steps taken forward but sleepwalking back again,

Dragged by force of some inner tide

But the highest altitude with flag unfurled

We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition,

There's 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 dark mist growing

The water flowing

The endless river

Forever and ever [x2]
