Higher Ground Lyrics By Ub40

    hook
    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

    moon and stars sit way up high
    earth and trees beneath them lie
    the wind blows fragrant lullaby
    to cool the night for you and i

    on the wing the birds fly free
    leviathan tames angry sea
    the flower waits for honeybee
    the sunrise wakes new life in me

    hook

    the fishes swim while rivers run
    through 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

    hook x

    moon and stars sit way up high
    earth and trees beneath them lie
    the wind blows fragrant lullaby
    to cool the night for you and i

    on the wing the birds fly free
    leviathan tames angry sea
    the flower waits for honeybee
    the sunrise wakes new life in me

    hook

    the fishes swim while rivers run
    through 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

    hook
