Lyrics
0:00My hopes are high
0:06But my eyes can't believe what they see, no
0:16Oh, give me something to believe
0:21Give me something to believe
0:28Oh, I've got lucky in life and had plenty to eat
0:35And I saw this world as one big pool of opportunity
0:39Oh but there's too much mind corruption
0:44Too little remedy or that's how it seems to me
0:51Yeah, we need a moral education to set the young minds free
1:03So let us change what we can and accept what we can't
1:09And impart some of the wisdom from that tried and tested man
1:14Oh, there's no harm in being wrong, you know, no
1:18In fact to me, it's common ground, yeah
1:25So take that feather from you cap, sir
1:30And pass that feather around
1:38My hopes are high
1:43But my eyes can't believe what they see
1:54Oh, give me something to believe in
1:59Give me something to believe, yeah
2:07Oh, my hopes are high
2:35But my eyes can't believe what they see
2:40Oh, my hopes are high
2:46Oh, give me something
2:48Give me something to believe
My hopes are high But my eyes can't believe what they see, no Oh, give me something to believe Give me something to believe Oh, I've got lucky in life and had plenty to eat And I saw this world as one big pool of opportunity Oh but there's too much mind corruption Too little remedy or that's how it seems to me Yeah, we need a moral education to set the young minds free So let us change what we can and accept what we can't And impart some of the wisdom from that tried and tested man Oh, there's no harm in being wrong, you know, no In fact to me, it's common ground, yeah So take that feather from you cap, sir And pass that feather around My hopes are high But my eyes can't believe what they see Oh, give me something to believe in Give me something to believe, yeah Oh, my hopes are high But my eyes can't believe what they see Oh, my hopes are high Oh, give me something Give me something to believe
