Stay High Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What comes up must come down
I learnt it in my science class
No, I'm not that dumb
Your fingertips (Your fingertips) upon my skin (Upon my skin)
You bring sunshine to my window, baby let it in

[Chorus]
Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low
Wherever we go, we're gonna get higher than the sun, my baby
Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low
Wherever we go, we're gonna stay high

[Verse 2]
What comes up (What comes up) must come down (Must come down)
But you and me, we're floating above the ground
Our generation (Our generation) has so much gloom (Has so much gloom)
'Cause there ain't no money left after the baby boom

[Chorus]
Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low
Wherever we go, we're gonna get higher than the sun, my baby
Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low
Wherever we go, we're gonna stay high

[Bridge]
Don't let me down
Not now 'cause I've been high for so long
That I don't know how to come down
Don't try, I don't even care if you lie, you and me
Don't let me down
Not now 'cause I've been high for so long
That I don't know how to come down
Don't try, I don't even care if you lie, you and me
[Pre-Chorus]
We're gonna stay high
We're gonna stay high

[Chorus]
Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low
Wherever we go, we're gonna get higher than the sun, my baby
Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low
Wherever we go, we're gonna stay high (We're gonna stay high)

[Post-Chorus]
We're gonna stay high, high, high, high (Higher)
We're gonna stay high, high, high, high
We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)
We're gonna stay high, high, high, high
We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)
We're gonna stay high, high, high, high
We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)
We're gonna stay high, high, high, high
We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)
We're gonna stay high, high, high, high

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
