Mornin' finds me at the table   Sifting through your memories   I'd change your mind but I'm not able   'Cause you were gone long before I could set you free      No more hearin' bad notes playin'   Songs I don't believe any more      Cold wind blows and the rivers rise   Let the muddy waters slide   I think it's time to head for higher ground   Somethin' better in the sky   Time to spread my wings and fly   Heaven help me up to higher ground      Midnight sends its shiny darkness   Throws a shadow on my dreams   I don't have time - time for broken hearted   'Cause I'm all paid up on the tears you left for me      No more cryin', no more buyin'   Into lies I don't believe - what you say      Cold wind blows and the rivers rise   Let the muddy waters slide   I think it's time to head for higher ground   Somethin' better in the sky   Time to spread my wings and fly   Heaven help me up to higher ground      Cold wind blows and the rivers rise   Let the muddy waters slide   I think it's time to head for higher ground   Somethin' better in the sky   Time to spread my wings and fly   Heaven help me up to higher ground
