its a happy day for you and i   the sun is up and shining in the sky   got a heart of gold that i can see   baby you got you now you got me   something's on so don't be late   its time to leave for the higher state      there is no time to be low tomorrow   there's only time to kill   there's no time to be high and fly   there's only time to thrill      so when i am up and you are down   baby that's when you gotta come around   gotta ease my pain and soothe my brain   gotta take me in out of this rain   something's on so don't be late   its time to leave for the higher state      there is no rhyme to express my emotion   there's only rhyme to feel   there is no rhyme to fulfill my devotion   there's only rhyme to heal      don't fret get high there's a new dawn that says hi   the higher state      [repeat]      its a happy day for you and i   the sun is up and shining in the sky   got a heart of gold that i can see   baby you got you now you got me      it is no crime to be lost with no direction   its just a crime not to live   and there is no crime to be asked for affection   its just a crime not to live      dont fret get high theres a new dawn that says hi   the higher state
