“Higher and Higher” + Liedje

Verse 1

She sits with pen and paper

Whispered worlds begin to glow

Heaven opens like a memory

Of the child she used to know

Through the veil she feels him nearer

Soft as wings above the sea

Fairies dancing in the silence

Carrying his voice to me

 

Pre-Chorus

In the shimmer of the starlight

In the breath between the night

 

Chorus

Mother, I feel life again

I feel the love of the mother

And the fairies sing higher and higher

Higher and higher

Mother, I feel life again

Your love is lifting me higher

And the fairies sing higher and higher

 

Verse 2

Now he sees how life was precious

Every heartbeat, every dawn

With his friend beside him journeying

Through the realms where souls are drawn

Fields of wonder rising endless

Valleys carved with silver light

Every moment full of meaning

Every shadow turned to bright

 

Pre-Chorus

In the stillness of the heavens

He returns in words he sends

 

Chorus

Mother, I feel life again

I feel the love of the mother

And the fairies sing higher and higher

Higher and higher

Mother, I feel life again

Your love is lifting me higher

And the fairies sing higher and higher

 

Bridge

Yes, I feel love—

Let us grow, let me write

With the love of my mother

Guiding me through the light

Every soul has its own journey

Every heart its sacred part

Helping others on their pathway

From the silence of the heart

 

Verse 3

Every single creature breathing

Every seed within the earth

Has a mother who will hold it

Who will guard its hidden worth

And the valley that I see now

Majestic, glowing wide

Is the place where love has written

That we’re never truly far apart

 

Final Chorus

Mother, I feel life again

I feel the love of the mother

And the fairies sing higher and higher

Higher and higher

Mother, I feel life again

Your love is lifting me higher

And the fairies sing higher and higher 

Higher and higher
