You've got me like no one has before.
I really love you.
The way you talk and the things you say sounds so good.
But there you were standing over there with another last night.
Now I'm in the middle of it.
Can't you see it's killing me?

I had high hopes for you and me.
Thought we'd stay together eternally.
High hopes for our love.
Felt like it was heaven sent from above.

Oooh, oooh...
Just too hard to let go.

You told me you loved nobody else.
You never would.
You'd have my child.
You'd even marry me if I'd asked.
But now it seems more so every day that you need me less.
Now you're almost there, come around.
I don't wanna let you go.
Oh, oh.

I had high hopes for you and me.
Thought we'd stay together eternally.
High hopes for our love.
Felt like it was heaven sent from above.

(High hopes) This can't be.
Caught you with another and girl, it's killing me.
(High hopes) You let me down.
I have to find somebody else since you won't be around.

Just need a little time.
It'll be alright.

High hopes.
High hopes.

Can't you see, I want you for myself
And always will.
We had our talk and tried to make things right
Or so it seems.
But now it's him for you.
Hey, I never ever come around to see you again,
Oh, oh,

'Cause I had high hopes for you and me.
Thought we'd stay together eternally.
High hopes for our love.
Felt like it was heaven sent from above.

(High hopes) Oooh, this can't be.
Caught you with another and girl, it's killing me.
(High hopes) You let me down.
I have to find somebody else since you won't be around.

(High hopes) Just need a little time and I'll be alright.
(High hopes) Oooh, hoo, high, high, high.
(High hopes) It's so hard to let go.
(High hopes)
