Your love, liftin' me higher |
|
Than I've ever been lifted before |
|
So keep it up, quench my desire |
|
And I'll be at your side forevermore |
|
You know your love (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Higher (liftin' me, liftin' me), higher, and higher (higher) |
|
I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Keeps on (liftin' me, liftin' me) |
|
Liftin' me (liftin' me) higher and higher (higher) |
|
Now once I was downhearted |
|
Disappointment was my closest friend |
|
But then you came and he soon departed |
|
And you know he never showed his face again |
|
That's why your love (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Higher (liftin' me, liftin' me), higher, and higher (higher) |
|
I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Keeps on (liftin' me, liftin' me) |
|
Liftin' me (liftin' me) higher and higher (higher) |
|
Awww |
|
I'm so glad I finally found you |
|
Yes, that one in a million girls |
|
And I wish my lovin' arms around ya |
|
Honey, I can stand up and face the world |
|
Let me tell ya your love (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Higher (liftin' me, liftin' me), higher, and higher (higher) |
|
I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me) |
|
Keeps on (liftin' me, liftin' me) |
|
Liftin' me (liftin' me) higher and higher (higher) |
