Higher and Higher Songtext
von The Moody Blues

Blasting, billowing, bursting forth
With the power of ten billion butterfly sneezes
Man with his flaming pyre has conquered the wayward breezes
Climbing to tranquility, far above the cloud
Conceiving the heavens, clear of misty shroud


Higher and higher
Now we′ve learned to play with fire
Go higher and higher and higher

Vast vision must improve our sight
Perhaps at last we'll see an end to our home′s endless blight
And the beginning of the free
Climb to tranquility, finding its real worth
Conceiving the heavens, flourishing on Earth

Higher and higher
Now we've learned to play with fire
Go higher and higher and higher
