Sugarland - Come On Get Higher (Live) Lyrics






I miss the sound of your voice
I miss the rush of your skin
I miss the still of the silence
As you breathe out and I breathe in

If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
Make you believe
Make you forget

[CHORUS:]
So come on get higher
Loosen my lips
Faith and desire
And the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

[REPEAT CHORUS]

I miss the sound of your voice
The loudest thing in my head
And I ache to remember
All the violent, sweet, perfect words that you said

If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
Make you believe
Make you forget

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

I miss the sound of your voice
I taste the sparks on your tongue
I see angels and devils and God when you come on
Hold on...

Sing sha la la la
Sing sha la la la

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

Because everything works love
Because everything works in your arms

Sugarland Come On Get Higher (Live) Comments
  1. S.... P....

    Amazing! Great performance

  2. A.... A....

    I actually have a funny but sweet story with this song. I was in speech and physical therapy at the time. My therapist allowed her daughter to hang out with me and we ended up listening to Sugarland and this song came on. She coragraphed motions with her hands and I followed. Now that I can sing and talk I look fondly back to those days and try to get the kids at any daycare to be interested in music.

  3. E.... J....

  6. C.... T....

    So powerful!

  7. H.... R....

    This is good I just don’t think her voice really works well for it. Country voices tend to have a slight more nasally or throaty sound and this is a very chest voice song. So yes this is beautiful I just don’t think it quite works right

  8. T.... W....

    is this reba

    T.... W....

    T-roy Wayne you're not smart are you??

  9. A.... V....

    just what the doctor ordered

  11. J.... C....

    I miss you Hunter, Isaiah, & Jonathan Mitchell more than you'll ever know!!

  12. a.... b....

    I hate country music, but this song is definitely an exception.

    a.... b....

    @Liv Rose hey watch it!!! lol I married my sister

  13. J.... C....

    I love you Hunter, Isaiah & Jonathan Mitchell... always and forever !!

  14. M.... ....

    I failed to see how being gay is an insult.

  15. r.... ....

    my favourite...oh love that baby....JACKS

  16. J.... W....

    Sugarland is so great! I think I like this song a little better than the original... :)

    J.... W....

    I think it is far better than the original.

  17. c.... ....

    This is a really beautiful cover!

  18. J.... S....

    Very Awesome

  19. R.... E....

    This is a good version..wish it was meant for me..

  20. A.... P....

    My new fav cover!!!!!!

  21. S.... J....

    @brandimgg
    hey if you think about it every male pop idol that recently cam out has considered being gay wether they are actually good or not, not that being is gay is bad but still, these teen popstars will all have their share of hate, look at miley cyrus, even though she isnt a guy, majority of the people loved her, and she turned out to be fake, teens dont do well in fame in fortune, they dont understand the stress that comes with it

  22. T.... ....

    @jewels5192 .. Okay then

  23. T.... ....

    @gracilaneofficial I don't know how your comment has so many positive votes. Got a problem with gay people? Jonas Brothers aren't that bad, leave them alone.

  24. d.... ....

    @gracilaneofficial dude that is awsome LOL

  25. m.... ....

    she gives the song a different feel. its kinda cool. i could never say which is better tho

  26. K.... L....

    @sweetnspicy17 Actually his wife isn't in the video - that's model Rosie O'Laskey. :)

  27. G.... C....

    @ACudmore2 hes married and thats his wife in the video and pretty sure the song is about her....

  28. m.... s....

    funny thing I was looking for this old school alternative dance song and couldnt find it.... kept looking found more junk. somehow tripped over this and KNEW this song just didnt know SUGARLAND re-did it.....hmmmmm. Country fan yes but this? hmmmmmm kinda liked- I think better when a dude sings it....;)

  29. b.... ....

    @gracilaneofficial Not that I'm a Jonas Brothers fan but..."Gay" Brothers? Because they are teen idols this makes them gay? That's not exactly kind.

  30. M.... A....

    I'm not a big country music fan, either, but this is nice. It's a very well-written, beautiful song. Good job, Matt N!!

  31. S.... A....

    i likey

  32. M.... ....

    @Bowtome09 Sugarland was originally founded but Kristian Bush and Kristen Hall, and Jennifer Nettles came later. Hall is a lesbian, and there are ugly rumors that she was pushed out of the band for it (because 'country audiences believe in family values'). She sued for $14m in 2008, and the case was eventually settled out of court, for an undisclosed amount. So, no, none of the current members are gay. (but if Kristian wants to try it, he can call me.)

  33. s.... ....

    @mstrywmn or perhaps she is singing to a woman as well? :) mmmmm
    beautiful version.

  34. R.... ....

    I love the Matt Nathanson version, but I like the way her twang works on the song too. Very beautiful.

  35. a.... h....

    love it but the accent takes some of the beuty of her voice out of the song

  36. K.... ....

    I think that each version has its own positive aspects...both are very good.

  37. S.... W....

    love this !!!!! this is the best version

  38. c.... c....

    sugar land kinda realy made this song suck......i like matts songs better!!!!!GO MATT!!!!!!!!!!!!

  39. a.... ....

    sugarland is the best! i love this :))

  40. P.... ....

    I think she's stressing her accent. It's annoying me.. :/


    p.s. texas is the best :)

  41. K.... C....

    I love the original and this is a nice remake as well. Love Sugarland....

  42. L.... P....

    I do like both versions. Matt's is definately a bit softer and almost darker in a way, while Sugarland's almost has more soul to it. I like both though, cause you have the soft and sweet version and the twangy version.

  43. M.... F....

    I love both versions of this song

  44. n.... ....

    this suck ass right here matt nathanson version much better

  45. J.... T....

    What is it about the sound of a harmonica. It's like the sound of human longing. Seriously, add some harmonica and I flip for it. This version is gorgeous.

  46. K.... F....

    I like it!!!!!

  47. M.... M....

    Sugar Land is so creative and they have so much passion behind what they sing! Any thing thay sing! :)

  48. c.... ....

    noopppee

  49. S.... P....

    Kristian Bush, the other member of Sugarland...not her husband

  50. C.... M....

    No no no....Jennifer's version is MUCH more soulful

  51. S.... B....

    I love Jennifer Nettles! She has such an awesome voice.

  52. T.... M....

    too awesome.

  53. b.... ....

    I love Sugarland but Matt Nathanson's original version is better. The meaning of the song is about Matt's sexual experiences with the love of his life (presumably his wife).

    As good as Sugarland's version is it doesn't capture the real meaning of the song. Especially at the 2:45 mark, there's nothing really sexy about a harmonica.

    It's like all the covers of Don Henley's "Boys of Summer" or Peter Gabriel's "In your eyes". Their good covers but just don't capture the real meaning of the songs.

  54. c.... ....

    the singing with her is guy who's always playing the guitar and in her videos with her.

  55. D.... S....

    this is a good version but ya i agree that matt nathanson does do a better job. and who is the guy singing with her?

  56. N.... ....

    This was good, but personally I like Matt Nathanson's version better.

  57. Z.... K....

    i like sugar land and matt mathanson's i think they are both really gud

  58. B.... R....

    I totally agree!!!!

  59. B.... R....

    I like the sugarland version better

  60. C.... ....

    She did say cat. "Cat" is slang for person or friend. I think it came from the 1930s when swingers referred to others as "hep cats" and only "cat" was retained. It was popular in the '70s.

  61. M.... J....

    Matt Natinson sings it much better,
    It sounds more romatntic when she does itt

  62. T.... ....

    i like this version better cause a girl is singing so like if ur a girl u can send it to ur bf or something and it wouldn't be nearly as weird besides i can understand it better when she's singing

  63. C.... ....

    i like this. its such a beautfiul song.

  64. H.... D....

    If her voice is so annoying go to a different video.... there is no need to downplay the talent it takes to sing this song so take your negativity elsewhere

  65. E.... ....

    WOW...They have just totally ruined this song.

  66. E.... ....

    Hell YES it is!

  67. J.... M....

    her voice is so annoying

  68. H.... L....

    i love this song! WAY better when you sing it.

  69. n.... ....

    okay i like sugarland but that just sucked i think people should stick to their own songs

  70. n.... ....

    theres also a guy in sugarland not just her

  71. H.... N....

    i LOVE sugarland but...
    matt does this song better.
    its just not a country song and sounds kinda funny with her accent.

  72. c.... ....

    i think it s cause it was his song first and she must have just liked the song so she sung it so she can't really sing it with the same passion as matt can........

  73. b.... ....

    by sugarland it sounds all 'i love you'
    by matt it sounds completely sexy.

    both are good, depends on what your in the mood for i guess :p

    tho matts smoother voice is lovely..

  74. e.... ....

    i agree. both are good and pleasant to hear.

  75. S.... H....

    I LOVE sugarland, but i think matt did this better.
    it sounds so cool with her southern accent:)
    deff fit for us country music loverss:D

  76. i.... ....

    Fuck me? Fuck you, she didn't have to destroy a perfectly good song. I guess if i heard this version. before heard the original I might have liked this one.

  77. i.... ....

    Way to butcher a good song. Good lord sugarland sucks!!!

  78. B.... ....

    they fucked it up

  79. w.... ....

    i love this song

  80. P.... B....

    Read this carefully
    blow on your right shoulder, then on your left
    look up and say your lovers name in your mind
    then send this message to how ever much letters are in your lovers name (send on different videos or it wont work).

  81. S.... M....

    I love watching her facial expressions and how her lips move when she sings. It is akward but it works

  82. S.... ....

    and the point of it is???.... what to waste time???

  83. c.... w....
