Lyrics

[Verse 1] Monday morning runs to Sunday night Screaming, "Slow me down" before the new year dies Well, it won't take much to kill a loving smile And every mother with a baby crying in her arms, singing [Pre-Chorus] Give me help, give me strength Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace Don't you know these days you pay for everything? [Chorus] Got high hopes I got high hopes Got high hopes I got high hopes [Verse 2] Coming from the city, coming from the wild I see a breathless army breaking like a cloud They're going to smother love, they're going to shoot your hopes Before the meek inherit, they'll learn to hate themselves [Pre-Chorus] Give me help, give me strength Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace Don't you know these days you pay for everything? [Chorus] Got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Give me help, give me strength Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace Don't you know these days you pay for everything? [Chorus] Got high hopes Got high hopes I got high hopes Got high hopes [Verse 3] Tell me, someone, what's the price? I want to buy some time and maybe live my life I want to have a wife, I want to have some kids I want to look in their eyes and know they stand a chance [Pre-Chorus] Give me help, give me strength Give a soul a night of fearless sleep Give me love, give me peace Don't you know these days you pay for everything? [Chorus] I got high hopes Got high hopes I got high hopes Got high hopes Got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes I got high hopes
