Higher Ground

UB40

And every hour of every day I'm learning more 
The more I learn, the less I know about before 
The less I know, the more I want to look around 
Digging deep for clues on higher ground

Moon and stars sit way up high 
Earth and trees beneath them lie 
The wind blows fragrant lullaby 
To cool the night for you and I 
On the wing the birds fly free 
Leviathan tames angry sea 
The flower waits for honeybee 
The sunrise wakes new life in me

And every hour of every day I'm learning more 
The more I learn, the less I know about before 
The less I know, the more I want to look around 
Digging deep for clues on higher ground

The fishes swim while rivers run 
Through fields to feast my eyes upon 
Intoxicated drinking from 
The loving cup of burning sun 
In dreams I'll crave familiar taste 
Of whispered rain on weary face 
Of kisses sweet and warm embrace 
Another time another place 

And every hour of everyday I'm learning more 
The more I learn, the less I know about before 
The less I know, the more I want to look around 
Digging deep for clues on higher ground
