If you love somebody
Better tell them
while they’re here ’cause
They just may run away from you
You’ll never know quite when well
Then again it just depends on
How long of time is left for you
I’ve had the highest mountains
I’ve had the deepest rivers
You can have it all but life
keeps moving
I take it in but don’t look down
Cause I’m on top of the world ay
I’m on top of the world ‘ay
Waiting on this for a while now
Paying my dues to the dirt
I’ve been waiting to smile ay
Been holding it in for a while ay
Take you with me if I can
Been dreaming of this
since a child
I’m on top of the world
I’ve tried to cut these corners
Try to take the easy way out
I kept on falling
short of something
I coulda gave up then but
Then again I couldn’t have
cause I’ve traveled
all this way for something
I take it in but don’t look down
Cause I’m on top of the world ay
I’m on top of the world ay
Waiting on this for a while now
Paying my dues to the dirt
I’ve been waiting to smile ay
Been holding it in for a while ay
Take you with me if I can
Been dreaming of
this since a child
I’m on top of the world
Cause I’m on top
of the world ay
I’m on top of the world ay
Waiting on this for a while now
Paying my dues to the dirt
I’ve been waiting to smile ay
Been holding it in for a while ay
Take you with me if I can
Been dreaming of
this since a child
And I know it’s hard
when you’re falling down
And it’s a long way up
when you hit the ground
Get up now get up get up now
And I know it’s hard
when you’re falling down
And it’s a long way up
when you hit the ground
Get up now get up get up now
Cause I’m on top of the world ay
I’m on top of the world ay
Waiting on this for a while now
Paying my dues to the dirt
I’ve been waiting to smile ay
Been holding it in for a while ay
