Eddie Mugavero: music
THE HIGHER THE MOUNTAIN
(Written by Eddie Mugavero, Stan Scherr, Bob Dellaposta, Susie Stevens-Sung by Darryl & Don Ellis)
Stan had the hook, and I had the melody. We all filled in the blanks.
THE HIGHER THE MOUNTAIN
WE’VE CLIMBED OVER WALLS AND FENCES
TO GET WHERE WE ARE NOW
STAYED A JUMP AHEAD OF HARD TIMES
AND NEVER LOOKED DOWN
STOOD BEHIND EACH OTHER TOOK IT STEP BY STEP
AND WE HAVE NO REGRETS
CAUSE THE HIGHER THE MOUNTAIN
THE BETTER THE VIEW
WE DID SOME CLIMBING
AND OUR DREAMS CAME TRUE
NOW I CAN SEE FOREVER
AND ITS ALL BECAUSE OF YOU
THE HIGHER THE MOUNTAIN
THE BETTER THE VIEW
THERES BEEN TIME WE’VE NEARLY FALLEN
BUT NEVER FELL
WE’D HOLD ONTO ONE ANOTHER
OUR FAITH ALWAYS HELD
WE'RE PAST THE CLOUDS AND ABOVE THE RAIN
AND WE'D DO IT ALL AGAIN..
