HIGHER
Music by Nikki Forova
Lyrics by Jonathan Child
Verse 1:
There’s something about you,
That draws me into your eyes,
And I’m wholly on a journey,
To another, space and time.
Please, don’t close them,
Don’t close your eyes,
Leave them open, open
Leave them open wide-
Pre-Chorus:
For even with my short sight- you make me feel alright,
For even with my blurry vision, you make my vision white.
Chorus:
High, Climbing higher,
n' Wide, Growing wider,
No troubles, Blowing bubbles,
High, high, higher-
High, Climbing higher,
n' Wide, Growing wider,
This life makes me high
High, high, higher-
Verse 2:
There’s something about you,
That lets me into your eyes,
And I’m suddenly on a journey,
Forgetting about the rat-race-
Phasing-out-time.
Don’t close them,
Don’t close your eyes,
Leave them open, open
Leave them open wide-
Pre-Chorus:
For even with widespread pollution-you make me feel alright,
For even with world-wide wars, you make my vision white.
Chorus 2:
High, Climbing higher,
n' Wide, Growing wider,
No troubles, Blowing bubbles,
High, high, higher-
High, Climbing higher,
n' Wide, Growing wider,
This life makes me high
High, high, higher-
Instrumental
Bridge:
I’m high, high-high high-high as ever,
And I won’t come, down- no, no, not ever
In so many ways the world really does it for me,
In so many ways!
½ Verse 3:
Please, don’t close them,
Don’t close your eyes,
Leave them open, open,
Leave them open wide-
Pre-Chorus:
For even if it's extinction- you make me feel alive,
A thousand million problems suddenly close their eyes
Chorus 3:
High, Climbing higher,
n' Wide, Growing wider,
No troubles, Blowing bubbles,
High, high, higher-
High, Climbing higher,
n' Wide, Growing wider,
This life makes me high
High, high, higher-
Instrumental:
Chorus 4:
High, Climbing higher,
n' Wide, Growing wider,
This life makes me high
High, high, higher-
This life makes me high
High, high, higher-
This life makes me high
High, high, higher-
