Lyrics: Michael Franti And Spearhead. Other. Never Seen A Place So High.

My best teachers are the ones I'd like to toast
My best teachers are the ones I hate the most
My best teachers never taught in any schools
And my best teachers never told me I was a fool you know
They just let me be one, yeah

And I said, Oh my, oh my
I ain?t ever seen a place so high
Oh why, oh why
Must we always say goodbye
Tonight, tonight,
Someone?s gonna have to learn to cry
Oh my, oh my
I ain?t never seen a place so
I ain?t never seen a place so
I ain?t never seen a place so high
Never seen a place so high
Tonight I'm feeling high

My best teachers said there was no missing link
My best teachers often had too much to drink
My best teachers never told me what to think
My best teachers often brought me to the brink ya know
And then let go, then let go

And I said, Oh my, oh my
I ain?t ever seen a place so high
Oh why, oh why
Must we always say goodbye
Tonight, tonight,
Someone?s gonna have to learn to cry
Oh my, oh my
I ain?t never seen a place so
I ain?t never seen a place so
I ain?t never seen a place so high

My best teachers are the ones I'd like to toast
My best teachers are the ones I hate the most
My best teachers never taught in any school
And my best teachers never told me I was a fool you know
They just let me be one, yeah

And I said, Oh my, oh my
I ain?t ever seen a place so high
Oh why, oh why
Must we always say goodbye
Tonight, tonight,
Someone?s gonna have to learn to cry
Oh my, oh my
I ain?t never seen a place so
I ain?t never seen a place so
I ain?t never seen a place so high
Never seen a place so high
Tonight I'm feeling high
