A former member of Alice Cooper's band, bassist Kip Winger formed his own group in 1986; in addition to vocalist/bassist Winger, the group featured lead guitarist Reb Beach, guitarist/keyboardist Paul Taylor, and drummer Rod Morgenstein, formerly of the Dixie Dregs. Taking its name from its leader, Winger specialized in the stylish hard rock that sent Bon Jovi and Poison to the top of the charts. The band's eponymous debut sold over a million copies on the strength of the rocker "Seventeen" and the ballad "Headed for a Heartbreak." Winger's second album, 1990's In the Heart of the Young, was equally successful, selling over a million copies and featuring the hit power-ballad "Miles Away." However, the band didn't outlast the grunge trend and the group faded away after the release of its 1993 album Pull. Kip Winger launched a solo career at the tail end of the '90s. In early 2006, the "Pull" 1993 line-up reunited, along with a fifth member on keyboards.

Higher & Higher Lyrics

Winger

Higher 'n higher

I see this lady
Took a bite out of you
And you can't go on in this condition
You go blind
Just tryin' to crawl out of bed
Like you're the sacrifice of superstition

She's so down-hearted
She's what you want, what you need
She gets you started
Drops the bomb, then she takes you

Chorus:
Higher, higher!!
She'll leave your dreams in the fast lane
Takin' you higher, higher
You can't fight it

Primal scream
She's got the body of sin
Should be a law against such an invention
A little smile
To let you see that she knows
And can sense the smell of your intentions

She's so down-hearted
She feeds the want, feeds the need
She gets you started
Drops the bomb, then she takes you

Chorus:
Higher, higher
She'll leave your dreams in the fast lane
Takin' you higher, higher
Now you'll never be the same

Solo

Once bitten
It's forever a game
'Cause her heart will resist all penitration
Now you live
For just another chance
To her pleasure that's around the nation

She's so down-hearted
She's what you want, what you need
She gets you started
Drops the bomb, then she takes you

Chorus:
Higher, higher
She'll leave your dreams in the fast lane
Takin' you higher, higher
You need her love
She's takin' you higher, higher
She'll leave your dreams in the fast lane
Takin' you higher, higher
(Oh) You can't fight it

Higher 'n Higher!
