Lyrics & Translation
English
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever
"Hey?"
"Yes."
"Is that Charlie?"
"Yes."
"Hello, Charlie!"
"Great."

High Hopes* (original Pink Floyd)
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times

High Hopes (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Más allá del horizonte del lugar donde vivimos cuando éramos jóvenes
En un mundo de imanes y milagros
Nuestros pensamientos divagaban constantemente y sin límites
El tañido de la campana de la división había comenzado
A lo largo del Camino Largo y bajando por la Calzada
¿Todavía se encuentran allí junto al Canal?
Había una banda andrajosa que seguía nuestros pasos
Corriendo antes de que el tiempo se llevara nuestros sueños
Dejando a la miríada de pequeñas criaturas tratando de atarnos al suelo
A una vida consumida por la lenta decadencia
La hierba era más verde
La luz era más brillante
Rodeados de amigos
Las noches de asombro
Mirando más allá de las ascuas de los puentes que brillaban detrás de nosotros
Para vislumbrar cuán verde era al otro lado
Pasos dados hacia adelante pero volviendo a caminar dormidos
Arrastrados por la fuerza de alguna marea interior
A mayor altitud con la bandera desplegada
Alcanzamos las vertiginosas alturas de ese mundo soñado
Lastrados para siempre por el deseo y la ambición
Hay un hambre aún insatisfecha
Nuestros ojos cansados aún se desvían hacia el horizonte
Aunque por este camino hemos estado tantas veces
La hierba era más verde
La luz era más brillante
El sabor era más dulce
Las noches de asombro
Rodeados de amigos
La niebla del amanecer brillando
El agua fluyendo
El río sin fin
Para siempre y siempre
"¿Eh?"
"Sí."
"¿Es Charlie?"
"Sí."
"¡Hola, Charlie!"
"Genial."
