From A Distance — текст песни (Bette Midler)

Higher! I`m a king, yes, I`m a head of state. But I`m the kitchen
boy who`ll wash your dirty plate. I had no message and the message
was, we`re all Jesus, Buddha, and the Wizard of Oz!
I`m merely a man and I bring nothing but love for you. I`m merely a
man and I want nothing that you can`t do!
And you know it`s true. That with logic and love we`ll be lifting
humanity higher! Higher!
I`m all religious figures rolled into one, Gaddafy Duck propelled
from Jimmy Swaggart`s tommy gun. Don`t promise rainbows with some
golden pot, In fact what I can offer I know you`ve already got!
I`m merely a man and I bring nothing but love for you. I`m merely a
man and I want nothing that you can`t do?
And you know it`s true. That with logic and love we`ll have power
enough to raise consciousness up and for lifting humanity higher!
Higher!
And you know it`s true. We should chase superstition and fear from
our hearts if we`re going to survive and take levels of sanity higher!
Kick it up... Higher!
I`m merely a man and I bring nothing but love for you. I`m merely a
man and I want nothing that you can`t do!
And you know it`s true. That with logic and love we`ll have power
enough to raise consciousness up and for lifting humanity higher!
