When I was young I'd sit outside
All night long and watch the lights
Of the big trucks on the highway rolling on
I'd wish that I was in a car driving fast, driving far
And at 17, that's exactly what I'd done
and to this day I don't know why I'm restless
I guess some hearts are simply born to run
Big dreams high hopes
They've led me through the hard times
Like a north star shining showing me where to go
They're what got this whole thing started
They're what kept this cowboy riding down the road
Big dreams high hopes
I'm older and a little wiser now
A wide eyed boy who set out
To change the world is gone but not forgotten
I still chase lights and wish on stars
That's what got that boy this far
And it still feels good
There ain't no point in stopping
And even though I hardly ever catch 'em
God don't it just feel good to try
Big dreams high hopes
They've led me through the hard times
Like a north star shining showing me where to go
They're what got this whole thing started
They're what kept this cowboy riding down the road
Big dreams high hopes
We're all out here trying to be happy
To be happy all you really need is
Big dreams high hopes
They've led me through the hard times
Like a north star shining showing me where to go
They're what got this whole thing started
They're what kept this cowboy riding down the road
Big dreams high hopes
Big dreams high hopes
