By Athena Stairs

This’s ’bout somethin’ else in a way babe

Eagerness always fell to the wind

But when I look at you there’s no playin’

And when I walk away it’s a sin

‘Cause I got high rollin’

Must be goin’

To different destinations

I know I can’t win

High rollin’

My heart’s got me moanin’

Ever since I turned away

And you went on your own again

Well you just gotta see

This ain’t the norm for me

Imma like a bird I’ve gotta fly free

But when I turn my back

I just can’t find the track

It don’t seem fair to say

You mean the world to me

Because I’m high rollin’

Gettin’ goin’

Where I been ain’t many seen

High rollin’

Can’t stand ownin’

All this heartache you gave to me

Can’tcha see

That your changin’ everythin’ in me

Now I know you’re the same

It’s why I like you

We understand the birds and bees

Yeah we ain’t kissed but babe I meant to

But when I see you I just freeze

I’m on my knees

There ain’t no one who can get me

The way that you affect me

It doesn’t make me feel secure

And I just gotta keep on runnin’ on

Because I’m high rollin’

Gotta keep on goin’

And I know I’m goin’ nowhere now

I’m high rollin’

There ain’t no place for goin’

I ain’t got no more heart to say “no how”

Because my high rollin’

Man its gettin’ slowin’

And I just gotta turn myself around

I ain’t seen no one like you

Though I’m feelin’ like a fool

I gotta turn this boat around

I’ve been high rollin’ where the leaves are blowin’

And I hate to keep my feet on ground

But this high’ rollin’ is gettin’ no wind

There ain’t no life without you around

So let’s get high rollin’

Let’s get goin’

I can’t play another game

‘Cause when this high rollin’ gets to knowin’

This whole world will look the same

I guess I’m tryna tell ya that I love ya

But I ain’t never ever won this bet

If we could get together change the rules up

Honey maybe we could win this yet

We’d be high rollin’

Doesn’t matter where we’re goin’

High rollin’ you and me

We’d be high rollin’

Gettin’ goin’

Winnin’ over land or over sea

Let’s get high rollin’

‘Cause it’s high time that we’re ownin’

What this love has done to you and me

No more night crawlin’

Tears and bawlin’

Maybe it’s for you and it’s for me

Let’s get high rollin’

Move these ebbs to flowin’

We’ve been stuck too long in misery

Let’s get high rollin’

Gettin’ goin’

There’s a whole new world to see

High rollin

High rollin’

Baby I’m for you and you’re for me

So let’s get high rollin’

Got to get us goin’

I know that I’ve been blind but now I see
