High Places Lyrics by Lauren Dair

2017

I’ve got friends in high places
But I’d rather spend my time with you
I’ve got friends in high places
But they don’t do it like you
Cause they wake up in the morning and they never feel good
Plaster on a smile like they think they should
And I can’t see you without me
Cause they’re doing stupid things that I don’t condone
Making big mistakes with no self-control
And I just can’t do me without you
They’ve got money, they’ve got fame
They’ve got fans screaming their name
But I’ve got you, babe, I’ve got you, babe
And it won’t matter where I’ll be if you’re standing next to me
I hope you stay
Oh would you, could you stay?
I’ve got friends in high places
But they never seem to grow up
I’ve got friends in high places
But compared to you they’re nothing much
Cause they’re doing stupid things that I don’t condone
Making big mistakes with no self-control
And I just can’t do me without you
They’ve got money, they’ve got fame
They’ve got fans screaming their name
But I’ve got you, babe, I’ve got you, babe
And it won’t matter where I’ll be if you’re standing next to me
I hope you stay
Oh would you, could you stay?
Would you stay?
Those shining lights
They hypnotize
I’m flirting, flirting with fame
Those shining lights
They catch my eyes
I never want it to change
Cause they’re doing stupid things that I don’t condone
Making big mistakes with no self-control
They’ve got money, they’ve got fame
They’ve got fans screaming their name
But I’ve got you, babe, I’ve got you, babe
And if someday I make my way up onto that big old stage
Would you stay?
Oh would you, could you stay?
Would you stay?
And if someday I make my way up onto that big old stage
Would you stay?
Oh would you, could you stay?
