Once Upon a High Lyrics

[Intro]
Ahem
High up on (High)
High up on high

[Chorus 1]
High up on—high up on—high up on you
High up on—high up on—high up on us
High up on—high up on—high up on—

High up on—high up on—high up on you
High up on—high up on—high up on us
High up on—high up on—high up on we
High up on—high up on—high up on kush for me

[Chorus 2]
I'm high moon—hey, moon
So high up on—high up on—high up on us
High up on—high up on—high up on you
High up on—high up on—high up on—(I feel good for)
High up on—high up on—high up on

[Post-Chorus]
Didn't I tell you? Didn't I say that?
Didn't I tell you;
A high like this won't last?
Didn't I tell you? Didn't I say that?
Didn't I tell you;
A high like this won't last?

[Verse]
So, I'm the fool, you could make it
Don't wanna be alone and naked
Be a shame with this own, or wasted
Ooh

[Chorus 3]
High up on high, high up on climax
High up on you, high up on you-should-spend-the-night
I'mma go to bed, high up on—high up on we
High up on—high up on—high up on—

[Post-Chorus]
Didn't I tell you?
Didn't I say that? (Didn't I say that?)
Didn't I tell you? (Didn't I tell you?)
Didn't I say that? (Didn't I say that?)
Didn't I tell you? (Didn't I tell you?)
Didn't I say that? (Didn't I say that?)
Didn't I tell—?

[Outro]
'Kay, bye

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
