Higher Ground - Jackie Lomax

You say that you need a holiday

But it’s Saturday — anyway

You say that you need more money

A Playboy Bunny

Couldn’t spend more money, honey

It’s such a crime to bring each other down

It’s time for me to head for higher ground

Above the water line…

You say that you’re feeling restless

Edgy, even helpless

I can’t help your feelings

It’s so revealing

What you say with your feelings

It’s such a crime to bring each other down

It’s time for me to head for higher ground

Above the water line…

I’m gonna head for the mountains

Set my sights higher

I’m gonna be over the horizon

Before you look for me

You say that you need more time

To turn it over in your mind

You’ve had time enough

Ain’t got to cry

Don’t cause a fuss

It’s such a crime to bring each other down

It’s time for me to head for higher ground

Above the water line…
