 Your love, liftin' me higher

 Than I've ever been lifted before

 So keep it up, quench my desire

 And I'll be at your side forevermore

 

 You know your love (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Higher (liftin' me, liftin' me), higher, and higher (higher)

 I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Keeps on (liftin' me, liftin' me)

 Liftin' me (liftin' me) higher and higher (higher)

 

 Now once I was downhearted

 Disappointment was my closest friend

 But then you came and he soon departed

 And you know he never showed his face again

 

 That's why your love (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Higher (liftin' me, liftin' me), higher, and higher (higher)

 I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Keeps on (liftin' me, liftin' me)

 Liftin' me (liftin' me) higher and higher (higher)

 Awww

 

 I'm so glad I finally found you

 Yes, that one in a million girls

 And I wish my lovin' arms around ya

 Honey, I can stand up and face the world

 

 Let me tell ya your love (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Higher (liftin' me, liftin' me), higher, and higher (higher)

 I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me)

 Keeps on (liftin' me, liftin' me)

 Liftin' me (liftin' me) higher and higher (higher)

 

 various scat singing to end
