Lyrics High Hopes - Spencer Day , Scott Bradlee & Postmodern Jukebox

Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shoot for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
I'm gonna be that one in a million
I had to have, high, high hopes
Mama said
Fulfill the prophecy
Be something great
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 don't give up, it's a little complicated
All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting
I got to have high, high hopes for a living
Shoot for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
I Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
I've got to have high, high hopes
I had to have high, high hopes for a living
I Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
I had to have high, high hopes
Mama said
It's uphill for oddities
Stranger crusaders
Ain't ever wannabes
The weird and the novelties
Don't 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 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
I got one good run and it's gonna be a sight to see
You got to have high, high hopes for a living
Shoot for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
I had to have high, high hopes
I Had to have high, high hopes for a living
I Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
I had to have high, high hopes
I Had to have high, high hopes
I Had to have high, high hopes
