When I was young |
|
I'd sit outside |
|
All night long and watch the lights |
|
Of the big trucks on the highway rollin' on |
|
I wished that |
|
I was in a car, drivin' fast, drivin' far |
|
And at seventeen that's exactly what |
|
I'd doneAnd to this day |
|
I don't know why |
|
I'm restless |
|
I guess some hearts are simply born to run |
|
Big dreams, high hopes |
|
They've led me through the hard times |
|
Like a north star shinin', showin' me where to go |
|
They're what got this whole thing started |
|
They're what keep this cowboy ridin' down the road |
|
Big dreams, high hopes |
|
I'm older and a little wiser now |
|
A wide eyed boy who set out to change the world |
|
Is gone but not forgotten |
|
I still chase lights and wish on stars |
|
That's what got that boy this far |
|
And still feels good, there ain't no point in stoppin' |
|
But even though |
|
I hardly ever catch 'em |
|
God, don't it just feel good to try? |
|
Big dreams, high hopes |
|
They've led me through the hard times |
|
Like a north star shinin', showin' me where to go |
|
They're what got this whole thing started |
|
They're what keep this cowboy ridin' down the road |
|
Big dreams, high hopes |
|
We're all out here tryin' to be happy |
|
To be happy all you really need is |
|
Big dreams, high hopes |
|
They've led me through the hard times |
|
Like a north star shinin', showin' me where to go |
|
They're what got this whole thing started |
|
They're what keep this cowboy ridin' down the road |
|
Big dreams and high hopes, big dreams, high hopes |
