      I believe your love keep liftin’ me higher
      Than I know I’ve ever been lifted before
      So keep it up … jump on my desire
      And I’ll be at your side forevermore … yeah, yeah.

I know your love …

      Keep on liftin' me …
      Keep on liftin’ me higher and higher …
      I know your love, girl …
      Keep on liftin’ me …

      Keep on liftin’ me higher and higher …

      Now once I was so downhearted
      Disappointment used to be my closest friend … yes it was
      Then you came and it soon departed
      And it ain’t never dared to show its face again … no way.

      I know your love keep on liftin’ me …
      Keep on liftin' me higher and higher …
      Hey, … your love, girl …

Keep on liftin’ me …
Keep on liftin’ me higher and higher …

Little bit higher …

      Oh, … I’m so glad, mama, that I finally found you
      You’re my one in a million, sweet, little mellow, mama girl
      So lay by me … both my arms around you
      I can stand up tomorrow mornin’ and face this world … you know I can.

I know your love keep on liftin’ me …

Keep on liftin’ me higher and higher …

Hey, … your love, girl …

Keep on liftin’ me …

Keep on liftin’ me higher and higher …

Little bit higher …

You know love keep on turnin’ me all the way around, mama

So keep it up … jump on my desire

And I’ll be at your side forevermore … yeah, yeah.

I’m so glad, baby, that I finally found you
You’re my one in a million, sweet, little Andrea girl … all right

I can stand up tomorrow mornin’ and face this ugly old world.

I know your love keep on liftin’ me …
