High Hopes - David Gilmour

[00:53.620]Beyond the horizon of the place we live...
[00:53.620]Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
[01:00.060]In a world of magnets and miracles
[01:05.739]Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
[01:12.110]The ringing of the division bell had begun
[01:17.149]
[01:19.179]Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
[01:25.429]Do they still meet there by the Cut
[01:29.929]
[01:32.129]There was a ragged band that followed our footsteps
[01:40.390]Running before time took our dreams away
[01:47.069]Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
[01:53.349]To a life consumed by slow decay
[01:57.629]
[01:58.560]The grass was greener
[02:04.920]The light was brighter
[02:11.050]With friends surrounded
[02:17.528]The nights of wonder
[02:21.438]
[02:25.289]Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
[02:31.498]To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
[02:37.789]Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
[02:43.990]Dragged by force of some inner tide
[02:49.229]
[02:50.830]At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
[02:56.960]We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world
[03:03.058]
[04:04.759]
[04:07.269]Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
[04:13.319]There's a hunger still unsatisfied
[04:19.769]Though down this road we've been so many times
[04:31.899]The grass was greener
[04:37.379]The light was brighter
[04:43.709]The taste was sweeter
[04:50.040]The nights of wonder
[04:56.360]With friends surrounded
[05:02.809]The dawn mist growing
[05:09.360]The water flowing
[05:15.499]The endless river
[05:22.869]Forever and ever
[05:22.869]Forever and ever
