“Stacey (Take You Higher)” Lyrics ^[4]
Song by XO:

Intro
(I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, yeah)
(I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, yeah)

Verse 1: Zoë, Summer
I thought we were meant to be
Boy, look what you’ve done to me
In the dark, no I can’t see the reason, baby
Tell me what you prefer
You and me or you and her?
Having the best of both worlds
It just ain’t fair, no

Pre-Chorus: Shali, All
What does she do (That I don’t?)
You say she will (But she won’t)
Love you better, baby
Ain’t gon’ happen, baby

Chorus: All
Tell me what you love
Tell me what you see in Stacey, in Stacey
’Cause she ain’t got nothing on me
So why’d you wanna be with Stacey?
(Come chill with me)
I’ll show you reality

Post-Chorus
(I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, yeah)

Verse 2: Emmy, Reanna
I could call you a thousand names
But it wouldn’t take the pain away
All the promises that you made no longer matter
One day, baby, you will see
That Stacey’s just not me
There ain’t no room for three
So baby, tell me

Pre-Chorus: Shali, All
What does she do (That I don’t?)
You say she will (But she won’t)
Love you better, baby
Ain’t gon’ happen, baby

Chorus: All
Tell me what you love
Tell me what you see in Stacey (In Stacey), in Stacey
‘Cause she ain’t got nothing on me
So why’d you wanna be with Stacey?
(Come chill with me)
I’ll show you reality

Post-Chorus
(I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, I-I-I’ll take you higher, yeah)

Bridge: Zoë, All, Reanna
She’s so fit and she’s all that
She’s got you like “Oh my god”
Got fancy clothes, dressed up all nice
Got her hair on point all through the night
But your homegirl could never do it like I can
‘Cause she can’t change a boy into a man
I can take you higher, can’t you see
No she can’t do it, can’t do it like me

Chorus: All
Tell me what you love (Tell me what you love)
Tell me what you see in Stacey (In Stacey), in Stacey
‘Cause she ain’t got nothing on me
So why’d you wanna be with Stacey?
(Come chill with me)
I’ll show you reality
Tell me what you love
Tell me what you see in Stacey (In Stacey), in Stacey (In Stacey)
‘Cause she ain’t got nothing on me
So why’d you wanna be with Stacey?
(Come chill with me)
I’ll show you reality

Outro: All
(I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, woah)
‘Cause she ain’t got nothing on me
(I’ll take you higher, I’ll take you higher, yeah)
