Take Me Higher
Maffy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lost in desire
You take me higher
Than I've ever, ever been before
Love on me like fire
Temperature rising
And I can't take it anymore

Can't take it anymore
Love on me like fire
Can't take it anymore

Lost in desire
You take me higher
Than I've ever, ever been before
Love on me like fire
Temperature rising
And I can't take it anymore

Lost in desire
You take me higher
Than I've ever, ever been before
Love on me like fire
Temperature rising
And I can't take it anymore

Can't take it anymore
Love on me like fire
Can't take it anymore

Lost in desire
You take me higher
Than I've ever, ever been before
Love on me like fire
Temperature rising
And I can't take it anymore
Lost in desire
You take me higher
Than I've ever, ever been before
Love on me like fire
Temperature rising
And I can't take it anymore

Lost in desire
Can't take it anymore




Love on me like fire
Can't take it anymore

We just bought a new house that came with a hot tub. I started singing this today to my family. Then I showed this clip to my kids. My daughter asked me if I was going to sing this every time we use it. Yes, kiddo. Yes I am.

LOL!! Similar thing happened to me, & my 10 yr old daughter looked at me like I’d lost my mind. (Then I showed her this clip.)
It’s strange how “Hot Tub” by Eddie Murphy/James Brown sticks in your head.

This was an era in the show’s history when SNL was closest to death. Lorne had left and Dick Ebersol was running it into the ground. Yet, one good choice kept it alive. Casting 19-year-old Eddie Murphy saved SNL. He single-handily carried the show through it’s darkest period and made a permanent mark on TV history.

Wow thanks for this knowledge. I always thought it was unlike Lorne to hire Eddie Murphy imho. Now it makes sense. Thanks also for giving credit where it’s due!
