Story Behind The Song
When I was playing with my band in Massachusetts I wanted to write a song for the dancers in the crowd - so this one was inspired by them (their colorful faces). And I just wanted to capture the party atmosphere of playing in a band for a rockin audience.

This is about how the little things in life are the most beautiful...and if you're seeing those things, living life to the fullest and knowing that time is flying by so you better do it quick - then you're livin the High Life.

Lyrics
High Life
© 2005 Justin Mather
Livin? the high life, high life?
Look at the days fly by, alright!
I like watching the sun sink, sun sink
Right around the corner ?til night
I like the colorful faces, faces?
A mosaic, display it and save me tonight
?cause we only got one life, one life?
We?re gonna live it tonight
?Cause we?re livin? the high life, high life
Look at the days fly by, alright!
