Higher Ground Lyrics - Nilla Nielsen

So I close the door 

I forget the key 

I know just what Im not 

But I know not what is me 

Ive been lost before 

But you got me found 

Swimming for the shore 

You were my higher ground 

Now they say, were done 

But I say, weve just begun 

One thousand mistakes, I know 

We dont want our hearts to break 

Oh my restless heart 

Beaten slow by words 

How well we played our parts 

How the piercing truth will hurt 

Hope has slipped us by 

Falling hard like rain 

All our endless love 

Seems its turning into pain 

Now I say, were done 

But you say, weve just begun 

One thousand mistakes, I know 

We dont want our hearts to break 

So I close the door 

I forget the key 

I know just what Im not 

But I know not what is me 

Oh, Ive been lost before 

But you got me found 

Swimming for the shore 

Baby you were my higher ground 

Oh you were my higher ground 

You were my higher ground
