High Hopes Lyrics by Onra

Long Distance

2010

[Intro]
Standing over there, over there
Over there, over there
Over there, over there
Over there, over there
[Verse 1]
I know you seen me standing there
Tryin' to catch your eye
Been watchin' you for quite some time
But you think I'm an average guy
I'm gonna figure out my approach
'Cause you're such a classy girl
You might be the most beautiful
The most beautiful girl in the world
[Pre-Chorus]
Standing over there (Over there)
Looking like a beautiful Black queen
I was over there doing my thing
Got distracted by the beauty you bring
Standing over there (Over there)
Makeup and clothes are so damn clean
The finest girl in the whole damn scene
I gotta get this girl to be with me
[Chorus]
Got high hopes
To get this woman of my dreams
And hope to stay together (Stay together, stay together)
I got high hopes
To give this woman everything
And make it last forever (Last forever, last forever)
[Verse 2]
Don't wanna come regular
I wanna show you a brand new thing
I don't wanna disrespect you
I wanna do more than buy you things
I only wanna compliment you
Forever make you feel free
From the very first moment I saw you
I knew you were the one for me
[Pre-Chorus]
Standing over there (Over there)
Looking like a beautiful Black queen (Beautiful Black queen, yeah)
I was over there doing my thing (Yeah)
Got distracted by the beauty you bring (You bring, girl)
Standing over there (Over there)
Makeup and clothes are so damn clean (So damn clean)
The finest girl in the whole damn scene (Yeah)
I gotta get this girl to be with me
[Chorus]
Got high hopes (Oh, baby)
To get this woman of my dreams (My dreams)
And hope to stay together (Stay together, stay together)
I got high hopes
To give this woman everything
And make it last forever (Last forever, baby, yeah)
[Verse 3]
I'm finally gon' take my chances
And try to get you in my life
I'm not gonna pass this by
And you become some other man's wife
I've never felt like this before
Lovin' some girl from afar
You shine bright as the sun
I have to know who you are
[Pre-Chorus]
Standing over there (Over there)
Looking like a beautiful Black queen (Beautiful Black queen, yeah)
I was over there doing my thing (Come on)
Got distracted by the beauty you bring
Standing over there (Over there)
Makeup and clothes are so damn clean
The finest girl in the whole damn scene (Oh, baby)
I gotta get this girl to be with me
[Chorus]
Got high hopes (Oh, babe)
To get this woman of my dreams (Of my dreams)
And hope to stay together (Stay together, stay together)
I got high hopes (Baby)
To give this woman everything (Everything)
And make it last forever (Last forever, baby, baby)
[Outro]
Got high hopes (Ooh)
To get this woman of my dreams
And hope to stay together (Hope we stay together, baby)
I got high hopes
To give this woman everything
And make it last forever (Last forever, last forever)
