Title: Higher Ground

Lyrics Higher Ground

moon and stars sit way up high
earth and tress beneath them lie
the wind blows fragant lullaby
too cool the night for you and i
on the wind the birds fly free
leviathan tames angry sea
the flower waits for honeybee
the sunrise wakes new life in me

and every hour of every day i'm learning more
the more i learn, the less i know about before
the less i know, the more i want to look around
digging deep for clues on higher ground...

the fishes swim while rivers run
thru fields to feast my eyes upon
intoxicated drinking from
the loving cup of burning sun
in dreams i'll crave familiar taste
of whispered rain on weary face
of kisses sweet and warm embrace
another time another place

and every hour of every day i'm learning more
the more i learn, the less i know about before
the less i know, the more i want to look around
digging deep for clues on higher ground...
