When this old world starts getting me down and people are just too much for me to face, |
|
I climb way up to the top of the stairs and all my cares just drift right into space. |
|
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be and there the world below can't bother me. |
|
Let me tell you now, 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 crowd and all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof). |
|
On the roof, 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). |
|
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've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof). |
|
And 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 (up on the roof), come on, baby (up on the roof), come on, honey, |
|
up on the roof, up on the roof. |
