Story Behind The Song
“You Take Me Higher” delves into the intricate dynamics of relationships, acknowledging that every connection has its highs and lows. Nora Tol masterfully captures this duality, exploring the magnetic pull of a relationship that, while perhaps not entirely beneficial in the long run, offers undeniable moments of exhilaration. It’s this push and pull, the allure of the “good parts” even when recognizing potential downsides, that makes the song so relatable to a wide audience.
Despite the underlying theme of a potentially complicated relationship, “Can You Take Me Higher” radiates a distinctly positive and uplifting vibe. This is precisely what Nora Tol loves about the song – its inherent fun and energy, making it a joy to sing and, hopefully, equally enjoyable to listen to. The upbeat tempo and catchy chorus contribute to the song’s infectiousness, making it perfect for dancing and feeling good.
Penned in 2012, “You Take Me Higher” isn’t a new release, but its timeless themes and energetic sound continue to resonate. Nora Tol mentions that the song even received radio airplay in the past, suggesting its broad appeal. This live performance video offers a glimpse into the raw and authentic delivery of the song. Filmed in a single take, it showcases Nora’s genuine connection to the music, even if she playfully admits to grappling with remembering lyrics and ad-libs after some time away from performing it live. This “live” feel adds to the charm and authenticity of the performance.
Lyrics
CHORUS
When you come around, you take me higher
Make me feel so light, I feel I’m flying
When you come around, you take me higher
You make me feel like I’m on fire tonight
Verse 1
You sure took your time to come and see me this time
I thought you changed your mind
You never miss a beat, you always do this to me
I should’ve known that you’re not that kind’Cos even though you’re no good for me
I swear there’s no better chemistry
Than the one we share
So when you say the word, you know I’ll be there ‘cos
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
Verse 2
You knock me out
Leave me down for the count
With such little things
I must be under your spell’Cos you’re playing me well
I’m like your puppet on a string
I must be losing my mind, ‘cos time after time
I see the writing on the wall
It’s like something’s got a hold, that I can’t control
I see you and I fall
You take me higher
Higher and higher
You take me higher
High
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
