Higher

Verse I
Donnie led a harder life
He chose to leave one night and left his past behind
He’s never looking back
If only to forgive
Only time will tell if his future’s worth the risk
Verse II
That night he laid it on line
With zeroes on the clock he entered overtime
When he told them they just laughed
“You’re dreams are just too big”
But only One decides it isn’t over ‘til he wins
Chorus
Higher, than you ever imagined
Deeper, than you’ve ever known
Greater, than your thoughts ever fathomed
Love is so much more
Verse III
Anna suffered a long time
Everywhere she turned to news of her demise
Opinions from the best
“A short time left to live”
But as the years went by long life became her gift
Chorus
Higher, than you ever imagined
Deeper, than you’ve ever known
Greater, than your thoughts ever fathomed
Love is so much more
Love is so much more (2X)
Chorus (3X like other choruses)
Echo: So much more…………………
Higher, greater, than you’ll ever know……………….
Instrumental (Chorus progression)
Verse IV
You had your chance, you took your shot
You gave it all you had – Now, they think that’s all you got
But you’re so much more than that
You’ve got so much left to give
Here comes your second chance and now it’s time to live
