Lyrics of Higher ground

So i close the door
I forget the key
I know just what im not
But i know not what is me

Ive been lost before
But you got me found
Swimming for the shore
You were my higher ground

Now they say, were done
But i say, weve just begun
One thousand mistakes, i know
We dont want our hearts to break

Oh my restless heart
Beaten slow by words
How well we played our parts
How the piercing truth will hurt

Hope has slipped us by
Falling hard like rain
All our endless love
Seems its turning into pain

Now i say, were done
But you say, weve just begun
One thousand mistakes, i know
We dont want our hearts to break

So i close the door
I forget the key
I know just what im not
But i know not what is me

Oh, ive been lost before
But you got me found
Swimming for the shore
Baby you were my higher ground
Oh you were my higher ground
You were my higher ground
