Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When dreaming, I'm guided to another world, time and time again
At sunrise, I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't wanna leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
[PreChorus]
So let's go there, let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask, can we stay?
[Chorus]
Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see?
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets?
[Verse 2]
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is, to let love replace all our hate
[PreChorus]
So let's go there, let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask, can we stay?
[Chorus]
Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see?
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets?
[PreChorus]
So let's go there (Let's go there)
Let's go there
(Let's go there)
Come on, let's go there
(Come on, let's go there)
Let's ask, can we stay?
[Bridge]
Up high, I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Sail up high, I'm strong enough
To take these dreams and make them mine
[Bridge]
Sail up high, I'm strong enough
To take these dreams, and make them mine
[Chorus]
Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see?
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets?
Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see?
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets?
