Everything gets better on higher ground Colors more distinct for miles and miles around And as far as sound goes, you can always tell When rains in the air, you can here it draw near Everything gets cooler on higher ground It is worth the climb, the views up here astound You can brush the cobwebs out of your mind You can think straight, no need to concentrate Higher, getting higher One step is a start Fire, light a fire Open up your heart You'll find inspiration It's not far away On higher ground Oh, on higher ground Everything gets richer on higher ground As for mother nature her treasures abound Head in the clouds, hold it up high Aren't you glad you found a higher ground Higher, getting higher One step is a start Fire, light a fire Open up your heart You'll find inspiration It's not far away On higher ground Oh, on higher ground (Piano solo) Higher, getting higher One step is a start Fire, light a fire Open up your heart You'll find inspiration It's not far away On higher ground Oh, on higher ground.
