Martha Reeves - Higher and higher 1976

Martha Reeves - Higher and higher 1976

Aaaaaah, yeah

Your love, lifting me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it up
Quench my desire
And I'll be at your side, forever more

You know your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on lifting (love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)
You know (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)

Now once I was down hearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But then you came and it soon departed
Now you know he never
Showed his face again

That's why you know your love
(your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on lifting (love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)
You know (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)

(Instrumental)

Higher

I'm so glad, I've finally found you
Yes, that one, in a million man
And now with my loving arms around you
Honey, I can stand up and face the world again

You know your love
(your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on lifting (love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)
You know (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)

You know (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)

Yyour love keeps lifting me
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)

Your love keeps lifting me
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)

Your love keeps lifting me
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)

Damn! All Right Now! You Go Martha!

she looks beautiful

[legalbeagle26]

She's tough! She's a harbour CHICK!

[legalbeagle26]

We white people can't keep the beat! HAHA! Look at the folks in the back! Still great song though!

[whodoesknow99]

A time machine to hear her do the national anthem with the ridiculous vocal range required ala Whitney Houston.

SEE her on Saturday Night Live from 1975 - show # 8. She looked very road weary, but just killed. This very song and Silver Bells.

What got me is the pipes she had. Those high notes she is lip synching to here she wisely leaves out.

She Was As Statuesque As Diana And Dare I Say Even More (I Still Loves Me Some Diana Though! lol) And As Seen In This Video She Had Such Vocal Power That Its A Shame She Didn't Become As Big Or Bigger Than The Reigning Queen Of Motown Miss Ross Nontheless She Still A Legend And In My Book She Shares That Thrown And Crown With Miss Ross And To Me They Are Both The Queens Of Motown! Cheers 2 Good Freakin' Music! :)

Come on re-issue companies, let's have The Rest Of My Life album ( from which this comes) on cd please! And don't stint on the bonus tracks!!

[pmattingly76]

I love the album this is from. Maybe some day it will get reissued on CD .... Anyway, I've never seen any clips of her performing songs from it, so this was a nice surprise. Thanks for posting it!
