Higher Ground
There are those who can live
With the things they don't believe in
They are giving up their lives
For something that is less than it can be
Some have longed for a home
In a place of inspiration
Some will fill the emptiness inside
By giving it all to the things that they believe
They believe
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
But given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
I will stand on my own
I will live up to this vision
I will trust in what I feel
And follow my heart until it brings me home
Bring me home
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
Given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
(Ooh-ooh) keep me through the night
(Ooh-ooh) lead me to the light
Teach me the magic of wonder
Give me the spirit to fly (spirit to fly)
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
Given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
Given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
With the things they don't believe in
They are giving up their lives
For something that is less than it can be
Some have longed for a home
In a place of inspiration
Some will fill the emptiness inside
By giving it all to the things that they believe
They believe
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
But given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
I will stand on my own
I will live up to this vision
I will trust in what I feel
And follow my heart until it brings me home
Bring me home
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
Given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
(Ooh-ooh) keep me through the night
(Ooh-ooh) lead me to the light
Teach me the magic of wonder
Give me the spirit to fly (spirit to fly)
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
Given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
Maybe it's just a dream in me
Maybe it's just my style
Maybe it's just the freedom that I've found
Given the possibility
Of living up to the dream in me
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground
