December 9

[edit]

Song name

[edit]

I heard a song which sounded very familiar today, but couldn't place it so I picked up some of the lyrics to Google later. I've tried but can't find the song. I'm sure it's like "higher and higher, deeper and deeper, further and further" and then something about deeper than the deepest "sea" and higher than the highest "mountain." This seems like such a popular and common song but Googling those lyrics plus the word lyrics seems to yield either a whole bunch of songs which don't seem right or none at all. Any help? Thanks. --Fbv65edeltc // 05:50, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]


The song is Higher & Higher by Rochelle, from the 2-CD set Almighty Presents Rochelle: Higher

Here you can listen to her song again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkUcQbNBO98

Here you can see the CD cover and tracks: http://www.amazon.com/Higher-Rochelle/dp/tracks/B0000E65Y4/ref=dp_tracks_all_1#disc_1

But I have searched intensively and the lyrics seem not to be available on the internet yet.

This (http://www.songsforteaching.com/jackhartmann/itslove.htm) It's love? Also this (http://www.getlyrical.com/index.html) is a hit-n-miss place where you can search. I find it isn't quite as good as i'd hope but it might be worth a try. ny156uk (talk) 16:08, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
