Higher Ground lyrics

(Bill Champlin, Tamara Champlin, Tom Johnston)
Mornin` finds me at the table
Sifting through your memories
I`d change your mind but I`m not able
`Cause you were gone long before I could set you free

No more hearin` bad notes playin`
Songs I don`t believe any more

Cold wind blows and the rivers rise
Let the muddy waters slide
I think it`s time to head for higher ground
Somethin` better in the sky
Time to spread my wings and fly
Heaven help me up to higher ground

Midnight sends its shiny darkness
Throws a shadow on my dreams
I don`t have time - time for broken hearted
`Cause I`m all paid up on the tears you left for me

No more cryin`, no more buyin`
Into lies I don`t believe - what you say

Cold wind blows and the rivers rise
Let the muddy waters slide
I think it`s time to head for higher ground
Somethin` better in the sky
Time to spread my wings and fly
Heaven help me up to higher ground

Cold wind blows and the rivers rise
Let the muddy waters slide
I think it`s time to head for higher ground
Somethin` better in the sky
Time to spread my wings and fly
Heaven help me up to higher ground
