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 spaceOn the roof it's peaceful as can be |
|
And there the world below don't bother meSo when I come home feeling tired and beat |
|
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet |
|
I get far away from the hustling crowds |
|
And all that rat race noise down in the streetOn the roof that's the only place I know |
|
Where you just have to wish to make it so |
|
Up on the roof, up on the roofAt night the stars put on a show for free |
|
And darling you can share it all with meI keep telling you right smack dab in the middle of town |
|
I found a paradise that's trouble proof |
|
So if this world starts getting you down |
|
There's room enough for two up on the roof, up on the roof |
