Come Up Higher Lyrics - Platinum Plus Records Soundtrack

[1] While working a fence on a Montana ranch….noonday sun setting high...
A cowboy noticed a nest on the ground….that had fallen from a ledge in the sky...
He walked on over…there he discovered…an egg unbroken, unharmed…..
So with his loving touch…he picked it up…and placed it with the hens in his yard...

[2] Time passed, the egg hatched….a new life revealed an eagle in a world not its own...
Though he tried to be….and he tried to feel…. like the others…he knew it was wrong...
He could not conform, would not perform….all the deeds they wanted him to….
But with each day he dreamed….of the freedom it seemed…that there waited beyond the blue

[CHO:] COME UP HIGHER……
YOU’VE BEEN BOUND BY THE WORLD WAY TOO LONG….
COME UP HIGHER…..COME UP WHERE YOU BELONG….
EYE HATH NOT SEEN…NOR EAR HAS IT HEARD….
JUST WHAT’S IN STORE FOR YOU….
YOU CAN FLY HIGHER…..THERE’S A HIGHER CALLING IN YOU…..

Turn-A-Round [short channel back]

[3] One day unexpected….a shadow appeared….a cry rang out from the sky…..
While the others all ran and they trembled in fear…the eagle lifted up his eye...
What he saw there…flying high in the air…was the life he knew there could be…
So with tears streaming down… he rose from the ground…ever more to be free...

[CHO:] COME UP HIGHER……
YOU’VE BEEN BOUND BY THE WORLD WAY TOO LONG….
COME UP HIGHER…..COME UP WHERE YOU BELONG….
EYE HATH NOT SEEN…NOR EAR HAS IT HEARD….
JUST WHAT’S IN STORE FOR YOU….
YOU CAN FLY HIGHER…..THERE’S A HIGHER CALLING IN YOU…..

[CHO:] COME UP HIGHER……
YOU’VE BEEN BOUND BY THE WORLD WAY TOO LONG….
COME UP HIGHER…..COME UP WHERE YOU BELONG….
EYE HATH NOT SEEN…NOR EAR HAS IT HEARD….
JUST WHAT’S IN STORE FOR YOU….
YOU CAN FLY HIGHER…..THERE’S A HIGHER CALLING IN YOU…..

[TAG:] you can fly higher….there’s a higher calling in you
