Testo Higher Ground John Denver
No cannon fire dockside
No flags half-mast
We were sold out for siver
And a string of black pearls
On the loneliest island
At the edge of the world
Like destiny¡Â¯s children
Souls lost at sea
No room on the lifeboat
You can hold on to me
Now the voyage is over
We¡Â¯re back on dry land
In our eyes are the stories
The rope and the brand
Like destiny¡Â¯s children
Souls lost at sea
No room on the lifeboat
You can hold on to me
