[Intro]
The higher my hope reigns
We hold onto our hopes and dreams tonight
The higher my hope reigns
We hold onto our hopes and dreams tonight

[Verse 1]
You ran your moral ground, taking on the darkest road
A story left untold, don't you leave me again
We played our very own games, our choices left our marks
We reunite and I can't afford to leave you again

[Pre-Chorus]
But now we stand apart, your friends are in my heart
You try to fly but hope will die, along with your devices
Compromises hold surprises right underneath my sleeves
You wouldn't ever believe what I have become

[Chorus]
The higher my hope reigns
We hold onto our hopes and dreams tonight
(Hopes and dreams tonight)
We dream on for our lives
We surface through the darkened caves tonight
We hibernate from all the ones we blamed
But the distance has proven that one man's dreams can dream on forever
[Verse 2]
Your fear was grounded hard, yet the road you followed rose
Your determination grows, don't you leave me again
We stand in this dark chamber remembering the past
You'll quit this game, but I can't afford to leave you again

[Pre-Chorus]
You set your sails for freedom, but alone I stay inside
Your quest is done, but mine remains inside the dark demises
Harmonise our heart's devices from inside our own souls
You'll understand my goals because of what I've become

[Chorus]
The higher my hope reigns
We hold onto our hopes and dreams tonight
(Hopes and dreams tonight)
We dream on for our lives
We surface through the darkened caves tonight
We hibernate from all the ones we blamed
But the distance has proven that one man's dreams can dream on forever

[Bridge]
Don't let go of the life we had long ago
Don't leave me all alone inside
Take a closer look at yourself, there's a heart inside me as well
Separated, complicated
Don't let this dark notion lead me all away from you
[Chorus]
(The higher my hope reigns)
We hold onto our hopes and dreams tonight
(Hopes and dreams tonight)
We're dreaming on for our lives
We surface through the darkened caves tonight
We hibernate from all the ones we blamed
But the distance has proven that one man's dreams can dream on forever

[Outro]
Will you ever forgive me, young one?
I wish we could be friends again
I understand if you have to leave
For now, I'll just keep dreaming on forever
