High Hopes 3000

(Woo)

Uh, I end my day the same way it started
Alone in L.A., while I grieve the departed
Waiting, waiting for someone, someone to change my life (Hey)
Brand-new shirt, yes, it's a little expensive
Oh, whatever works to put some joy in the engine
And I go out on the town, trying to change my night
Mm, and doing it over and over and over and over again
Oh, hell

I need some high hopes, Lord knows I could use 'em
I know I'ma lose 'em when the wheels fall off
Hey now, lend some independence
Stuck inside the fences like a goddamn dog
Long nights, heavy feelings
They say I'm unappealing when I shoot my shot
Come here, honey, show me how to do it
Does love come around or does one come around to it?
(Oh, yeah)

I get undressed in the arms of a stranger
Then second-guess that ol' half-sober behavior
Do I really, do I really believe that someone could change my life?
Uh, I'm doing it over, and over, and over, and over again
Where does it end? Mm

I need some high hopes, Lord knows I could use 'em
I know I'ma lose 'em when the wheels fall off
Hey now, lend some independence
Stuck inside the fences like a goddamn dog
Long nights, heavy feelings
They say I'm unappealing when I shoot my shot
Come here, honey, don't know how to do it
Does love come around or does one come around to it? (Woo)

Woo, talking 'bout high (high), hopes (hopes), Lord knows I could use 'em
I know I'ma lose 'em when the wheels fall off
Hey (hey), now (now) lend some independence
Stuck inside the fences like a goddamn dog (Okay)
High (high), hopes (hopes), Lord knows I could use 'em
I know I'ma lose 'em when the wheels fall off
Hey (hey) now (now), lend some independence
Stuck inside the fences like a goddamn dog

(Yeah)
High hopes, oh, I could use 'em
High hopes, don't let me lose 'em now
High hopes, oh, I could use 'em
