We Can't Get Any Higher Than This
Aaron Tippin · Stars and Stripes
We could fly on the wings of an eagle
Take a ride on a rocket ship
Drink to the bottom of a bottle
But we can't get any higher than this
We could tiptoe up to the mountaintop
Snuggle and cuddle and a kiss
But sooner or later we gotta come down
CHORUS
We can't, no we can't
(Yeah) we can't get any higher than this
Baby we're sittin' on top of the world
And we can't get any higher than this
BRIDGE
If the sky is the limit
There's no telling how far we'll go
Even the angels are grinning
If there's a heaven we're right in the
middle of it
If this ain't stoned on loving
Oh, then I don't know what is
Cloud nine is right below us
And we can't get any higher than this
REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT BRIDGE
REPEAT THIRD VERSE
REPEAT CHORUS (TWICE)
