Your love liftin' me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
But keep it up, that's my desire
And I'll be at your side forever more
You know your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on liftin' (keeps on liftin' me)
Higher (liftin' me)
Higher and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on (keeps on liftin' me)
Liftin' me (liftin' me)
Higher and higher (higher)
I was, I was downhearted
Disappointments were my closest friends
But then you came and he soon departed
And you know he never showed his face again
That's why your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on liftin' (keeps on liftin' me)
Higher (liftin' me)
Higher and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on (keeps on liftin' me)
Liftin' me (liftin' me)
Higher and higher (higher)
I'm so glad I finally found you
That someone in a million girls
And I wish my lovin' arms around you
I can stand up and face the world
That's why your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on liftin' (keeps on liftin' me)
Higher (liftin' me)
Higher and higher (higher)
Let me tell your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on (keeps on liftin' me)
Liftin' me (liftin' me)
Higher and higher (higher)
