When this old world starts getting me down |
|
And people are just too much for me to face |
|
Well, I climb way up to the top of the stairs |
|
And all my cares just drift right into space, up on the roof |
|
On the roof's as peaceful as can be |
|
And there the world below can't bother me |
|
When I come home feeling tired and beat |
|
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet, up on the roof |
|
I get away from the hustling crowds |
|
And all that rat race noise down in the street, up on the roof |
|
On the roof's the only place I know |
|
Where you just have to wish to make it so |
|
Let's go up on the roof, up on the roof, up on the roof |
|
At night the stars put on a show for free |
|
And darling, you can share it all with me |
|
I keep a-telling you |
|
Right smack dab in the middle of town |
|
I found a paradise that's trouble proof, up on the roof |
|
So if this world starts getting you down |
|
There's room enough for two up on the roof |
|
Up on the roof, up on the roof |
