She comes running
Don't blame yourself
Don't hurt yourself
Don't say it's true
This city
Rains down on you
Rains down on you
I don't care about money
I'll just pray for time
There's no easy way

So if you feel like taking on the world
That's alright
We've got the night on our side
We can walk that line

I'm on my way to higher ground
Lies they build you up then bring you down

Some people
Just love and run
Your time has come
Can you hear what I'm saying
For this time around
I've made up my mind

And if your dreams come crashing to the ground
Hide your pain
Just start all over again
On the other side

I'm on my way to higher ground
Lies they build you up then bring you down
Don't let it get you down

So as this world lies waiting let there be no sorrow tonight

I'm on my way to higher ground
(We can walk that line)
(We can pray for time)
Lies they build you up then bring you down
(We can walk that line)
(So let's pray for time)
I can't ever lose this thing I've found
(We can walk that line)
(I've made up my mind)
I'm on my way to higher ground
(Higher ground)

Higher ground
Higher ground

The time has come to turn it round
They can't touch you now
The time has come to turn it round
They can't touch you now

Higher ground
The time has come to turn it round
Higher ground
They can't touch you now
