High Hopes |
| Well I didn’t give up on the road to love |
| But that road is long and that road is rough |
| So you seek a diversion from all that work |
| And I can’t get back now |
| I strayed off into a shady resort |
| Where perfect formulas quench your thirst |
| They fix you up in the simplest terms |
| And I can’t get back now |
| And I saw things that you’re not meant to see |
| Sights and scenes better left to your dreams |
| And on the way my standards are rising |
| I’m less prepared to compromise them |
| And every day brings wider horizons |
| So how’m I gonna get on the straight and narrow? |
| How’m I gonna get on to you? |
| And even if I could it may be too late |
| Cos I hear that love runs on give and take |
| That’s a deal to which I would not relate |
| No I can’t do that now |
| Cos I’m used to playing the waited-on guest |
| Youth and beauty granting my every request |
| Yeah on the way my standards are rising |
| I’m less prepared to compromise them |
| And everyday brings wider horizons |
| So how’m I gonna settle for what’s on offer? |
| How’m I gonna settle for you? |
| Now I want things that we’re not meant to see |
| Sights and scenes better left to our dreams |
| And all the way my standards are rising |
| I’m not prepared to compromise them |
| And should I ever finally arrive there |
| Then how’m I gonna settle for what’s on offer? |
| How’m I gonna settle for you? |
| Yeah how’m I gonna settle for something proper? |
| How’m I gonna settle for you? |
