Higher Ground

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the higher ground album, and has also been released on the john denver collection - rocky mountain high album.



There are those who can live

With the things they don't believe in

They are giving up their lives

For something that is less than it can be



Some have longed for a home

In a place of inspiration

Some will find the emptiness inside

By giving it all for the things that they believe

They believe



Maybe it's just a dream in me

Maybe it's just my style

Maybe it's juat the freedom that i've found

Given the possibility

Of living up to the dream in me

You know i'll be reaching for higher ground



I will stand on my own

I will live up to the vision

I will trust in what i feel

I'd follow my heart until it brings me home

Brings me home



Maybe it's just a dream in me

Maybe it's just my style

Maybe it's juat the freedom that i've found

Given the possibility

Of living up to the dream in me

You know i'll be reaching for higher ground



Keep me through the night

Lead me to the light

Teach me the magic of wonder

Give me the spirit to fly



Maybe it's just a dream in me

Maybe it's just my style

Maybe it's juat the freedom that i've found

Given the possibility

Of living up to the dream in me

You know i'll be reaching for higher ground



Maybe it's just a dream in me

Maybe it's just my style

Maybe it's juat the freedom that i've found

Given the possibility

Of living up to the dream in me

You know i'll be reaching for higher ground
