Songs That Changed the World--The Most Important Songs of the Rock Era: "Higher Love" by Steve Winwood

Moments of peace.  Moments of contemplation.  Moments of epiphany.  These are what The Most Important Songs of the Rock Era* create.  It is in that moment, as Steve Winwood sings, that one realizes there must be a Higher Love:

"Higher Love"
by Steve Winwood

Written by Steve Winwood and Will Jennings


Think about it

There must be higher love

Down in the heart or

Hidden in the stars above

Without it, life is wasted time

Look inside your heart,

I'll look inside mine

Things look so bad everywhere

In this whole world, what is fair

We will walk the line 

And try to see

Falling behind in what could be



CHORUS

Bring me a higher love

Bring me a higher love

Bring me a higher love

Where's that higher love

I keep thinking of



VERSE 2

Worlds are turning 

And we're just hanging on

Facing our fear

And standing out there alone

A yearning and it's real to me

There must be someone

Who's feeling for me

Things look so bad everywhere

In this whole world, what is fair

We will walk the line 

And try to see

Falling behind in what could be



CHORUS



BRIDGE

I will wait for it

I'm not too late for it

Until then I'll sing my song

To cheer the night along

I could light the night up

With my soul on fire

I could make the sun shine

From pure desire

Let me feel that love come over me

Let me feel how strong it could be



CHORUS
