Higher Ground Songtext

von Thunder

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "Higher Ground" von "Thunder" handelt von dem Verlangen, aus einem kleinen Ort auszubrechen und nach etwas ...

Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground
We've got to steal away, uh

I feel the wind blow, on the corner
And I'm looking down along this dead end street
All the people, are getting older
But they don't give a damn, their lifes are incompleate
I don't look no better than it did before
And I know what's happening behind each door

If I don't get out today, I'm gonna waste my life away
That's a part that I can't play

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town
I can feel it driving me away
Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground
We've got to steal away

Uh

As a young boy, I didn't fit in, and I knew it then
I wouldn't be the same
That was only in the beginning, and as the time rolled on deeper grew the pain
So give me one good reason, why I should stay!
I think I've got enough money for the late night train

There's a world you've never seen
But I've been there in my dreams
It's calling out to me

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town
I can feel it driving me away
'cause baby, you and me were meant for higher ground
We've got to steal away

If I don't get out today, I'm gonna waste my life away
And that's a part that I can't play

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town
I can feel it driving me away
Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground
We've got to steal away

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town
I can feel it driving me away
Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground

I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town
I can feel it driving me away
Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground
We've got to steal away

(I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town)
Oh, got to steal away
(baby, you and me were meant for higher ground)
Got to steal away
