Higher Ground

by UB40

Lyrics:Ub40  Music:Ub40
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.
Chorus
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
Chorus
And  every hour of  everyday 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...
