Hope the High Road

Lyrics

I used to think that this was my town
 What a stupid thing to think
 I hear you're fighting off a breakdown
 I myself am on the break
 I used to want to be a real man
 I don't know what that even means
 Now I just want you in my arms again
 And we can search each other's dreams
 I know you're tired
 And you ain't sleeping well
 Uninspired
 And likely mad as hell
 But wherever you are
 I hope the high road leads you home again
 I heard enough of the white man's blues
 I've sang enough about myself
 So if you're looking for some bad news
 You can find it somewhere else
 Last year was a son of a bitch
 For nearly everyone we know
 But I ain't fighting with you down in a ditch
 I'll meet you up here on the road
 I know you're tired
 And you ain't sleeping well
 Uninspired
 And likely mad as hell
 But wherever you are
 I hope the high road leads you home again
 To a world you want to live in
 We'll ride the ship down
 Dumping buckets overboard
 There can't be more of them than us
 There can't be more
 ♪
 I know you're tired
 And you ain't sleeping well
 Uninspired
 And likely mad as hell
 But wherever you are
 I hope the high road leads you home again
 To a world you want to live in
 To a world you want to live in
