Higher Ground Testo

You were life, you were love, you were water
You were bread, feel my breath getting harder
And I know if you're gone any longer
That I could bleed my heart out

You were gold and I took you for granted
Held the world in the palm of my hand
But I was blind, couldn't see what I had then
Now I bleed my heart out
If you could stay
Just a little while longer
You might believe
I've been tryin' to make a change

'Cause everything I touch, turns to ashes
And everything I love, gets away from me
Everything I've lost, casts a shadow
I'm trying not to hold on
I'm ready for that, higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
I'm never coming down, never coming down

We were young, we were lost, we were frozen
Broken hearts that were aching to open
Now I see there was no way of knowing
That we were bleeding out

But if you could stay Just a little while longer
Oh, you might believe
I've been tryin' to make a change

'Cause everything I touch, turns to ashes
And everything I love, gets away from me
Everything I've lost, casts a shadow
I'm trying not to hold on
I'm ready for that, higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
I'm never coming down, never coming down
I'm never coming down, never coming down
I'm never coming down, never coming down

'Cause everything I touch, turns to ashes
And everything I love, walks away from me
Everything I've lost, casts a shadow
I'm trying...

Everything I touch, turns to ashes
And everything I love, walks away from me
Everything I've lost, casts a shadow
I'm trying not to hold on
I'm ready for that, higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
Never coming down
(Ready for that) Higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
Higher, higher ground
I'm never coming down, I'm never coming down
