Higher Lyrics by Ásgeir

In the Silence

2014

[Verse]
I lift my mind to the sky
And I let it take flight
The wind carries to my ears
Precious sounds of life

Soon I break all ties
Which bind me to this earth
All that surrounds me seems to melt
Into blue eternal

[Chorus]
Higher, higher
Far away
And the glare of this world
Is small and humbled

[Verse]
Now the warmth of the sun
Has refreshed my soul
She takes her leave and she bows
To the dreams of the night

This deepest sapphire
This feast for open ears
The clouds have drifted away
And everything becomes so clear

[Chorus]
Higher, higher
I must go
And the glare of this world
Is small and humbled

[Verse]
I lift my mind to the sky
And I let it take flight
The wind carries to my ears
Precious sounds of life

Soon I break all ties
Which bind me to this earth
All that surrounds me seems to melt
Into blue eternal

[Bridge]
And later when
The sun shines down
Deepest sapphire
Feast for the ears
I lift my mind
Up to the sky

Look out over
Look out over
Look out over
Look out over
Look out over
Look out over
