As Zayde Wolf himself said, this song is about hope, but I think that it is also about more than that. It is about moving past and rising above. Most likely referring to moving on from the past.
[Verse 1]
Did you ever think
That we would be standing here
Did you ever think we would?
Did you ever blink
And everything just disappear
Did you ever thing we could?
[Pre-Chorus]
Let me show you how to be a dreamer
Let me show you how to chase down the sun
No looking back when you’re a dreamer
Yeah this is where we will overcome
[Chorus]
Higher than high
Higher than we ever knew that we could go
Maybe we’ll fly
Farther than the stars ever thought they could know
[Post-Chorus]
It’s all looking up now
It’s all looking up now we won’t stop
It’s all looking up now
Higher than high we won’t stop
[Verse 2]
When I hear you say
“It’s hard to keep from looking back”
Sometimes I think that too
Yeah I know it’s tough
When every day is grey and black
But I’ll keep on lifting you
[Pre-Chorus]
Let me show you how to be a dreamer
Let me show you how to soak up the sun
You gotta keep walking on when you’re a dreamer
And I know that we will soon overcome
[Chorus]
Higher than high
Higher than ever knew that we could go
Maybe we’ll fly
Farther than the stars ever thought they could know
[Post-Chorus]
It’s all looking up now
It’s all looking up now we won’t stop
It’s all looking up now
Higher than high we won’t stop
[Bridge]
Yeah we’ve been coming up
Just coming up
Yeah who knew
Now we are standing on top
Yeah we’ve been coming up
Just coming up
Yeah who knew
Now we are standing on top
[Chorus]
Higher than high
Higher than ever knew that we could go
Maybe we’ll fly
Farther than the stars ever thought they could know
[Post-Chorus]
It’s all looking up now
It’s all looking up now we won’t stop
It’s all looking up now
Higher than high we won’t stop
Higher Than High was produced by Zayde Wolf.
Zayde Wolf released Higher Than High on Fri Oct 13 2017.
A really special one for me. A song about hope in a time when we could all use a little more of it.
