Let's take it back to when we started, started out as friends

But then went singing together and that is where we began

On stages, pages of new-written songs

Thought it went easily and well, but that is where we went wrong

We had to talk about it, about the songs we made

And about the consequences of being late

About criticism, about love and hate

‘Bout the music we wanna create

 

Higher

Take me higher

 

Then two years later, the way we were had to end

Tried to continue with four, but one couldn't bend

So there's three of us now, just like that

Take it to the next level, don't look back

We kept our harmony and we didn’t complain

We went on and on and never noticed the pain

Of the friends around us we would slowly forget

‘Cause we are workaholics and had no time to regret

Our choices, voices, is all we had

So we said no to the alcohol and went straight to bed

"We are missing out on all the fun", they said

But we never listen to that

 

Higher

Take me higher

 

Meanwhile Caffeine was growing

Became more and more of an obligation instead of purely joy

Had to remind us what we did this for

That we love singing and we just wanna perform

We forgave our past, ‘cause it had made us strong

When we were angry or sad, we put it into a song

Count the stages that we stand upon

‘Cause we know that’s where we belong

Higher

Oh, take me higher

It takes hard work and dedication

Practice and medication

A guitar, a foundation

It takes three girls to build a nation

Hard work and dedication (Take me higher)

Practice and medication

A guitar, a foundation (Take me higher, take me higher)

It takes three girls to build a nation (Higher)

Hard work and dedication

Practice and medication (Take me higher)

A guitar, a foundation

It takes three girls to build a

Higher

Take me higher
