We gotta get to a higher place
And we gotta leave by night
Before
that river takes us down
We gotta find some place that's dry
We gotta run like we've never
run
Or we're gonna lose the light
(Chorus)
[But] if we don't get to a higher
place and find somebody
Can help somebody, might be nobody no more
Well, I fool
myself and I don't know why
I thought we could ride this out
I was up all night making up
my mind
But now I've got my doubts
I got my eye on the waterline
Trying to keep my
sense of humor
(Chorus)
We gotta get to a higher place
And I hope we all
arrive togheter
We gotta get to a higher place
If we want to survive the
weather
I remember walking with her in town
Her hair was in the wind
I gave her
my best kiss
She gave it back again
When I add up what I've left behind
I don't want
to lose no more
