Higher Place

So I think I got it all in place now

No distractions, under control

Yet there's something missing inside me

I'm chasing shadows of myself

And the clocks are ticking

My world is spinning

Spinning 'round and 'round

And 'round and 'round again



And I try

I try to reason why

Don't you know I can't go on this way

Baby, please don't walk away

There is this place

Where I toss away my pride

So you can see that I'm the one

To take you to a higher place this time



I am on the outside looking in

To a place where I will be

Let me give you what you need from me

I surrender my soul to you

And my heart is pounding

And my head is spinning 'round and 'round again



And I try

I try to reason why

Don't you know I can't go on this way

Baby, please don't walk away

There is this place

Where I toss away my pride

So you can see that I'm the one

To take you to a higher place this time



Oh, I crash and burn inside my mind

It happens time and time again

I can't explain the way you make me feel

Oh, I know I don't have much to give

But what I have, I give to you

With all the madness left inside of me

With the madness left inside of me



Ooh, and I try

I try to reason why

Don't you know I can't go on this way

Baby, please don't walk away

There is this place

Where I toss away my pride

So you can see that I'm the one

To take you to a higher place this time



Forget what was and what had been

The side by sides and in betweens

(Don't you know I can't go on this way)

Baby, please don't walk away



All the years and yesterdays

Pack your things, get on your way

So raise your sights and lift your dreams

To a higher place this time
