My brightest star's my inner light
Let it guide me
Experience and innocence bleed inside me
Hallucinogens can open me or untie me
I drift in inner space free of time
I find a higher state of grace in my mind

I'm beautiful
I wasn't born to follow
I live just for today
I don't care about tomorrow
What I got in my head
You can't buy, steal or borrow
I believe in live and let live
I believe you get what you give

I've glimpsed I have tasted
Fantastical places
My soul's an oasis
Higher than the sun
I'm higher than the sun
I'm higher than the sun

Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun

    I just feel such a serenity when I'm on shrooms and lying on the ground, looking up and listening to this song. It's the ultimate high song.

    This song is just totally sexy. Found it through the movie/series Men Only, in which the Dub Symphony in Two Parts version is used. Love both versions.

    It was written about 1990 when Acid House and raves had really taken off in UK. Everyone between 17 and 25 was off their tits on E and acid. The music was incredible, Indie bands like PS were getting produced by club DJ's. I was 20 and got 'Higher than the Sun' tattooed across my back. 48 now - still love it!
