Take Me Higher
NOAHS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Up in the mountains of wales
He once told me he was looking
For the fountains of ale
Take me higher
But even though she claimed
To keep on calling me
I got a name but that name
Take you higher
Even though I was lost
Even then I was born again
But even though I wasn't free
I didn't know I had it all
She once fell with a man
Into the fountains of youth
She was a queen
Back in 1973
Take me higher
I got my hands stuck
Onto the handles of love
But I had found the keys
She kept on hiding from me
Take you higher
Even though I was lost
But even then I was born again
Even though I wasn't free
I didn't know I had it all
The lyrics of NOAHS' "Take Me Higher" seem to be about a person's search for something higher and better in life. The song begins with a reference to a man in the Welsh mountains who was searching for the fountains of ale, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for a quest for happiness or fulfillment. The singer then asks to be taken higher, possibly to a higher level of consciousness or a better place in life.
The next verse talks about the singer's relationship with someone who called out to them but was dead to them, indicating a broken or toxic relationship. Despite this, the singer still wants to be taken higher by this person. This could be interpreted to mean that the singer is willing to forgive and move on from the past to reach a better place in their life.
The third verse tells the story of a queen who fell into the fountains of youth with a man back in 1973. This could be a reference to the idea of nostalgia or yearning for the past. The lines "Even though I was lost, even then I was born again" suggest the idea of renewal or rebirth, symbolizing the idea of starting anew and leaving the past behind.
Overall, "Take Me Higher" seems to be about the universal human desire for a better life, no matter how difficult the journey may be. Through the use of metaphors and storytelling, NOAHS conveys the message of hope and the pursuit of a better future.
