I came across a wonder
A vision came to me
Echoes of its greatness in our company
He rode the painted layers
A traveled spirit guide
Whispering the wisdom
We were searching for somehow
Reaching in to figure it out
He said, "Live the wonder
Try to ride the thunder."
We danced around the firelight beneath the canyon moon
(D)
To keep from going under; To keep from going under
We go higher, Higher, Higher
Soaring high above it all
Where souls can wander;
Where spirits learn to fly
Leave the ground behind us now
We were embers from the fire like tracers in the sky
We were searching for somehow
Reaching in to figure it out
He said, "Live the wonder
Try to ride the thunder."
We danced around the firelight beneath the canyon moon
(D)
To keep from going under; To keep from going under
We go higher, Higher, Higher
Bridge: C, G, D; C, G, A
Before they take another
My spirit-seeking brother
Hope that they will see
When my life's ledges crumble
Our egos will be humbled
Canyons work for free
He said, "Live the wonder
Try to ride the thunder."
We danced around the firelight beneath the canyon moon
(D)
To keep from going under; To keep from going under
We go higher
He said, "Live the wonder
His words, they roll like thunder
We danced around the firelight beneath the canyon moon
(D)
To keep from going under; To keep from going under
We go higher
We go higher
We go higher
