Friends In High Places Songtext

von Tuck & Patti

Not too long ago I came of age
And just about that time I went through some of my darkest days
It didn't take me long to find out who was on my side
And where the warmest friendships burn when things get cold outside

Time and time again I walked up to that same old door
Smiling faces greeted me from pillows on the floor
They told me of their journeys and they beckoned me to go
To a mountain where there'd never been a footprint in the snow

If my road got dry and dusty or my winding path should stop
Or if my feet should stumble before I reached the top
There was always consolation there and always hope
And always one above me who would gladly drop a rope

Cause I got friends in high places gonna see me through
And you got friends in high places that will do the same for you
They'll do it for you
They'll see you through

So on your next expedition from your circle on the floor
Just count the heads around you; when you're finished add one more
They've always been your dearest friends through the good times and the bad
But the only time you call on them is when you're feeling sad
You will see a face before you at the closing of an eye
They were when you were born, and Lord, they'll be there when you die

Cause I've got friends in high places gonna see me through
And you got friends in high places that will do the same for you
They will do the same for you
