Higher Ground lyrics

Artist  : Vanessa Williams 
Song : Higher Ground
 


Walk me over this situation
Let the sun's
light warm my face
Once again the times are
changing
Once again I've lost my
way

While the words of acient
poets
Fall like dust upon my shoes
Greed
has grabbed me of my vision
Turned my heart
from higher truths

So take my hand and
lift me higher
Be my love and my
desire
Hold me safe, in honor bound
Take my
heart to higher ground

I have walked too
long in darkness
I have walked too long
alone
Blindy clutching fist of
diamonds
that I found were only
stones

I would trade the wealth of
ages
for a warmer hand to hold
Though the
path of life is narrow
But it leads the
streets of gold

So take my hand and lift
me higher
be my love and my desire
Hold me
safe, in honor bound
Take my heart to higher
ground

In this world we move through
shadows
Never sure of what we see
While the
truth abides between us
Come and share the
truth with me

So take my hand and lift me
higher
Be my love and my desire
Hold me
safe in honor bound
Take my heart to higher
ground

Ooh, Ooh
