on top of the worlD  

We were leaving 
For the stratosphere 
Easy breathing 
In your atmosphere 
Oh how could I 
How could I ever forget last year 

  When we were on top 
When we were on top of the world 
When we were on top 
When we were on top of the world 

 The seasons all stopped 
The axis forgot to twirl 
When we were on top 
On top of the world 

  Sent me flying 
Like a rocketeer 
Without trying 
Now I’m way up here 
Oh how could I 
How could I ever forget last year 

  When we were on top 
When we were on top of the world 
When we were on top 
When we were on top of the world 

  The seasons all stopped 
The axis forgot to twirl 
When we were on top 
On top of the world   

I can’t see my house from here 
But I can breathe the air so clear 
I can’t see my house from here 
But I can breathe the air so clear 
And how could I ever forget last year 

  When we were on top 
When we were on top of the world 
When we were on top 
When we were on top of the world 

 The seasons all stopped 
The axis forgot to twirl 
When we were on top 

 On top of the world 
On top of the world 
Oh, mmhm, on top
