Hopes Too High Lyrics

Listen baby, I won�t leave no trace.
Gonna light out of here for some cleaner place.
I�ll be sitting in the backseat with my hair in my face,
Then gone fast as freedom on good wind.

If I got my hopes too high, this is no easy kind of life.
But I see it in my mind�s eye, touch me real as daytime,
And I can�t keep from trying.

No place to run for a girl like me,
Whole lot of used to�s and supposed to be�s,
I want to burn like august, shine like gold dust,
Where everyday living can�t hold me.

If I got my hopes too high, this is no easy kind of life.
But I see it in my mind�s eye, touch me real as daytime,
And I can�t keep from trying.

So when I reach for you from some way down place,
Don�t be a stranger who won�t show his face.
I got no promise but these words I say,
I carry you, you carry me,

If I got my hopes too high, this is no easy kind of life.
But I see it in my mind�s eye, touch me real as daytime,
And I can�t keep from trying.
