Lyrics Higher Than A Hawk (Deeper Than a Well) - Howard Keel

My heart is higher than a hawk
My love is deeper than a well
I'm thinking in a little while
My love and I'll be doing very well

An owl is giving me the eye
The wind is blowing me a kiss
I wouldn't be at all surprised
If i were only dreaming all of this

And when I strut about like a sonny-jim
Dressed in yella and red
Folks will shout, "take a look at him, he's fixed in the head"
I said that I would never fall
I laughed at others when they fell
And here I'm falling
Higher than a hawk
And deeper than a well

And when we're all rigged out like a birthday cake
Eyes will pop everywhere
Folks will shout "don't you think they make, a wonderful pair?"
I said that I would never fall
But if you promise not to tell
My long for you
Is higher than a hawk
And deeper than a well
