Your smile cuts through a smoky room, chasing
silence from the air Your empty eyes and hollow
smile complement your vacant stare There's
something more to stand on, something of worth to
live your life on Chorus Higher ground, on higher
ground You'll build your house where love
resounds Higher ground, on higher ground You'll
see your purpose from higher ground Your
determined words dance on my heart, you're like a
conscience in my ear Your laughing smile and
brilliant eyes remind me why I'm here For
something more to stand on, something of worth to
live my life on Chorus The sight of you on your
feet Face streaked with the crystal glow of tears
To show that love had saved you and truth amazed
you is the vision I will take with me wherever I
go
