Speaking to Lindsey Parker of Yahoo Entertainment, Ellie Goulding spoke about the song on July 13, 2020: "I don't really need anyone... I grew up on bloody love songs thinking I couldn't live without someone... and then I wrote "New Heights" which talks about how to reach this other elevated place where you can be alone. It's about loving yourself as a person and what comes out of it."

All this time I felt completed
All this time I felt I needed you by my side
Even if we'd fight and fight again
The nights with you were so disarming
Taking all my weapons from me I found myself
Powerless with you
I tried to be just like those other girls
Accepting situations stop the search
For something brighter, got to stay excited
Your love will always be my validation
Float in permanent vacation
I'd close my eyes, to shut out the sky
Reaching these new heights
Love without someone else feels right
Love for myself in this new light
There's something much deeper inside
Something died the day I fell for you
Pourin' vodka in my apple juice
I smoked the night away
You were my escape
To what I thought was everything
Find someone to lose myself with
But I'm not buying it, and you're not either
Everything is beautiful
Maybe cause we're doomed we're whole
Baby cut me loose, I want to fall, fall
Reaching these new heights
Love without someone else feels right
Love for myself in this new light
There's something much deeper inside
I want to see the world before it disappears
I've got much wiser through the years
I'm searching for, I'm searching for
A higher love
I wanna see the world before it disappears
I've got much wiser through the years
I'm searching for, I'm searching for
Reaching these new heights
Love without someone else feels right
Love for myself in this new light
There's something much deeper inside
The song is written by:Maxwell Cooke, Jonathan Patrick Wimberly, Joe Kearns, Elena Goulding
