    G#
I dream of a day
when I dare to believe
           A
you're the answer
          G#
When the shame
and the guilt are removed
                 A
and the truth appears
        G#
Of the touch of your hand
I lose who I am
      A
if I want to
    G#
I try to resist but
succumb to the bliss
         A
of your kiss

Chorus:
              G#
You should be higher
               A
I'll take you higher
               F#m
Well don't be afraid
                      A
You'll just have to pray
C#m                    B
Your lies are more attractive
than the truth
Bm             A Am
Love is all I want
C#m                    B
Your lies are written down now
in your book
Bm             A Am
Love is all I want

Your arms are infected
They are holding the truth
Oh stop all your crying
This one you'll lose

Chorus

You should be higher
You should be higher

Love
Love
Love
Love
