Paolo Santos Lyrics
"Lift Me Up Higher"

lift me up higher by Paul Santos
I was born in the year of the rabbit
When rainbows made love 'till noon
And I said to you "Good morning"
But morning came too soon
Too soon

I met you in the year of sundown
And we went on talking 'till night
I softly said "Good evening"
But evening was too light
Too light

Keep me warm or lift me up higher
Your love's too heavy for me
Keep me warm or lift me up higher
But leave me alone, let me be
(Aaaah aaaah)

We couldn't live together
But we also knew
That you could do without me
But I not without you
Without you

My cat is purring softly
She is happy just to live
And I whisper that I'm sorry
But there's nothing left te give
To give

Keep me warm or lift me up higher
Your love's too heavy for me
Just keep me warm or lift me up higher
But leave me alone, let me be

Keep me warm or lift me up higher
Your love's too heavy for me
Keep me warm or lift me up higher
Leave me alone, let me be

Keep me warm or lift me up higher
Your love's too heavy for me
Keep me warm or lift me up higher
Leave me alone, let me be

Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm (Aaaayeah)
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm (Aaaayeaheah)
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Hi hi higher
Keepin' me warm
Hi hi higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher
Keepin' me warm
Lift me higher,
