Take Me Higher
Russell McNamara Daniel J. Reynolds Lyrics

There's a growing list of things
As time passes, the number of issues and problems is increasing.

I need to shake off
I need to let go of these issues and move on.

Things I need to laugh about
There are situations that I need to find humor in to lighten the mood.

Before they feel too raw
Before these situations become too painful to bear.

And I heard you live
I've heard that you have experienced similar struggles.

A similar life
A life filled with challenges and obstacles.

And it's been a while but I
Although it's been some time since we last spoke,

Recognize you in hindsight
I can still see your influence and presence in my life.

I know you've been looking so tell me if you find
I understand that you are searching for something better, so please share if you discover it.

Somewhere better than here
A place that offers more peace and fulfillment than our current surroundings.

Scouring the maps even heard you got a scope
You're exploring every option, even rumors suggest you have a keen eye on opportunities.

To search the atmosphere
To seek new opportunities and experiences in life.

If you were leaving tonight
If you were to depart soon,

Before the skies fade back to blue
Before everything returns to normal and mundane.

Then I don't even need to know where to ask
I'm ready to follow you wherever you go, no questions asked.

Please take me with you
I ask to join you on your journey to somewhere better.

I loved a place
There was a location that held a special meaning to me

On the cliffside
It was situated by the edge of a steep cliff.

Until the smoke moved in
Until a negative influence or destructive force took over.

Smothered all the daylight
It obscured the light and happiness that once shone there.

You loved a place
There was a place that was dear to you.

On the shoreline
Located by the water's edge.

Until the water sent
Until a natural force, such as waves,

You running at high tide
Forced you to flee during times of great change or challenge.

If you need me to I'll run
If you require my support or companionship, I'll be there for you.

I've been dying to watch the sun
I've longed to witness new beginnings and hope for a brighter future.

Set in a different space
In a place where change and growth are possible.

There's so much I don't know
There are many uncertainties and mysteries in life that I have yet to discover.

But I think that we should go
However, I believe that it's time for us to embark on a new journey.

Before these feelings fade
Before the desire for change and exploration diminishes.
