High Hopes (厚望) - The Romantic Orchestra
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 the 'cause way
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 surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers
Of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards
But sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
Encumbered forever
By desire and ambition
There's a 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 dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever
