Higher Than

Higher than a mountaintop The road is steeper than it seems The road is hard and bare and mean Longer than the ocean?s tides The wait is pain and wants to leave But when it goes you cannot breathe Suddenly it dawns on me She's in love but can?t provide She is a saint but don?t ask why She is a rock but never cries She sits alone and holds her breath She wonders how she made her way To find herself here in this place, she said Suddenly, it dawns on me I am a child at heart I wake up and move in robotic steps Each day like the next no, I never rest If I keep on moving I'll always be safe I don't ever learn? Suddenly it dawns on me I am a child at heart --- Higher Than - Paul Michel
