High Hopes - Pink Floyd

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 causeway.

Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band who followed in our footsteps.

Running before times took our dreams away.

Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground.

To a life consumed by slow decay.

Looking beyond the embers of bridges gowing behind us.

To a glimpse of ho green it was on the other side.

Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again.

Dragged by the force of some inner tide.

At a higher altitude with flag unfurled.

We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world.

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition.

There's a hunger still unsatisfied.

Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon.

Go down this road we've been so many times.

Forever and ever.
