Higher Love
Nicholas Jonas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There must be higher love
Down in the heart
Or hidden in the stars above
Without it
Life is wasted time
Look inside your heart
I'll look inside mine
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind, what could be
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of
Worlds are turning
And we're just hanging on
Facing our fear
Standing out there alone
A yearning
And it's real to me
Must be someone who's routing for me
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind, what could be
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
Bring me a higher love
I could rise above on a higher love
I will wait for it
I am not too late for it
Until then, I'll sing my song
To cheer the night along
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of
Oh
Bring me a higher love
(Bring me a higher love)
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
(Woo!)
Bring me a higher love
(Bring me a higher love)
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love, ohhh
The lyrics of Higher Love by Nicholas Jonas are a call for a better world or a better love, higher than what we currently have. The song opens with the statement that there must be a higher love, either hidden in the heart or in the stars above. Without this love, life is considered wasted time. The singer urges the listener to look inside their heart while he does the same. The second verse describes the world as it is and the struggle to find what is fair while facing fears, standing alone, and yearning for someone who is rooting for us.
Line by Line Meaning
Think about it
Take a moment to ponder
There must be higher love
There surely exists a more profound love
Down in the heart
Located deep within one's soul
Or hidden in the stars above
Perhaps concealed amongst the celestial bodies
Without it
Absent of such love
Life is wasted time
One's existence becomes meaningless
Look inside your heart
Reflect on your own emotions
I'll look inside mine
I too will examine my own feelings
Things look so bad everywhere
The world seems bleak and hopeless
In this whole world, what is fair
There is little justice or equity in the world
We walk blind and we try to see
We navigate unclear paths in search of clarity
Falling behind, what could be
Unable to progress, what possibilities are lost?
Bring me a higher love
Grant me a love more profound than what I have currently experienced
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of
What is the source of this elusive love I so frequently long for?
Worlds are turning
The universe continues to spin and evolve
And we're just hanging on
Humans exist in this world, clinging for dear life
Facing our fear
Encountering our deepest anxieties
Standing out there alone
Isolated from others
A yearning
A strong desire
And it's real to me
This longing feels genuine to my own experience
Must be someone who's routing for me
There must be someone in the world who hopes for my well-being
I will wait for it
I will have patience for this love to arrive
I am not too late for it
I still have the opportunity to experience it
Until then, I'll sing my song
In the meantime, I'll express myself through music
To cheer the night along
To provide hope and happiness to those around me
I could rise above on a higher love
This more profound love can offer me greater personal fulfillment
Oh
Intonation of strong emotion
