Higher Lyrics by Sly and the Family Stone

Dance To The Music

1968

[Verse 1]
When you're through with what you think you have to do
Hot pursuit
When you've gone where you have to go
Let me know
[Chorus]
Wanna take you higher (You think you're into something but you're wrong)
Take you higher (Hold my hand)
Let me take you higher (I wanna turn you out)
Let me take you higher (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Higher
[Verse 2]
When you've gone through all the guys
I'll be there
When you've lost all of your friends
What a scare
[Chorus]
I want to take you higher
I want to take you higher
I want to take you higher, gon' be alright
Let me take you higher, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Higher, ooh, higher
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
You will see that all that's right is not what's right
Look around
Very often, we just get too out of sight
We go down
[Chorus]
Want to take you higher
I wanna take you higher
Let me take you higher, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Higher
Higher, yeah, yeah, higher
[Outro]
Want to take you higher, higher
Have you ever been higher, higher
