Even Higher Ground Lyrics - Homesick - Deacon Blue

I could almost weep 

If I could only take your hand 

We're so close to sleep 

And so far from deliverance 

Once in every lifetime 

Love comes down 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you stumble 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you fall 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you stumble 

Would not make you fall 

Oh you came tumbling in 

Like a river to the valley 

Which will not be rolling green again 

It's washed everything away 

Well it stretches out so beautifully 

Shows the heavens up above 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you stumble 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you fall 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you stumble 

Would not make you fall 

Would not make you fall 

Would not make you fall 

Would not make you fall 

I couldn't love you better 

If I'd loved you all my life 

You threw out all the questions 

With one big breath - welcome to the world 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you stumble 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you fall 

Even higher ground 

Would not make you stumble 

Would not make you fall 

Would not make you fall 

Would not make you fall 

Would not make you fall
