I was prowling in the dark
|
It was a game of chance I played
|
Thought I had the vital spark
|
Tired out I was in this cascade
|
|
When truth began to dawn on me
|
Backing the wrong horse one decade
|
On floating ice so endlessly
|
A tug-of-war in this grand charade
|
|
See how the land lies
|
Welcome the sunrise
|
Farewell to the disguise
|
Mark my words and never say die
|
|
[Chorus]
|
On top of the world
|
On the edge of sheer heaven
|
Believe in this red-letter-day
|
Life comes to light
|
By no means it ain't over
|
The flowering time has begun
|
(You'll be there)
|
You'll be on top of the world
|
|
Nothing venture, nothing have
|
Clearing the figments of the mind
|
Never walking this way half
|
Beating the air and one eyed blind
|
|
Redress the balance
|
Come take this mere chance
|
Fall into this romance
|
The scale will fall from your eyes
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Wild horses won't drag me back on the track
|
Cause I've got the hang of it now
|
A flash in the pain
|
As sound as a bell
|
The odds are in my favour now
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[B-chorus]
|
Top of the world uh-uh-uh-uh
|
Heaven is here sheer heaven is here
|
Why not believe so will you believe
|
This glory day we're on top
|
Top of the world so we are on top
|
Heaven is here so heaven is here
|
Why not believe and when life comes to light
|
You'll be there you'll be on top of the world
|
Top of the world
|
