Sometimes I stop and wonder Why can't I let myself enjoy The space I'm in And all the wonderful places I've been
My arms around the future And I can think about the past My aspirations always exceed My grasp
You got to reach A little bit higher When the light within becomes a fire Hey hey Whoa whoa You've got to grow Sometimes Know that you've got to reach A little bit higher (little bit higher) To get a hold on all that you desire Stretch your soul And you'll never grow old Mmm no no no
When the habits of a lifetime Become a painful cage You want to break out But you don't know how to change No no Well you may have a vision Or you may have a friend Who will come to you (come to you) And say these same words again (yeah again again again yeah yeah yeah) You got to reach A little bit higher When the light within becomes a fire Hey hey (hey hey) Whoa whoa (whoa whoa) You've got to grow Sometimes I sit myself down and I say You got to reach (you got to reach) A little bit higher (higher) To get a hold on all that you desire Stretch your soul (oh) And you'll never grow old Never never never grow old
