On Top of the World

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 the time is left for you [Pre-Chorus] I've had the highest mountains I've had the deepest river You can have it all, but life keeps movin' Now, take it in, but don't look down [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top the world, ay I'm on top of the world, ay Waitin' on this for a while now Payin' my dues to the dirt I've been waitin' to smile, ay Been holdin' it in for a while, ay Take it with me if I can Been dreamin' of this since a child I'm on top of the world [Verse 2] I've tried to cut these corners Tried to take the easy way out I've kept on fallin' short of somethin' I coulda' gave up then, but Then again, I couldn't have 'cause I've traveled all this way for somethin' [Pre-Chorus] I take it in, but don't look down [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top the world, ay I'm on top of the world, ay Waitin' on this for a while now Payin' my dues to the dirt I've been waitin' to smile, ay Been holdin' it in for a while, ay Take it with me if I can Been dreamin' of this since a child I'm on top of the world [Interlude] (Wow-whoa) (Oh, oh) I'm on top of the world (Wow-whoa) (Oh, oh) [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top the world, ay I'm on top of the world, ay Waitin' on this for a while now Payin' my dues to the dirt I've been waitin' to smile, ay Been holdin' it in for a while, ay Take it with me if I can Been dreamin' of this since a child I'm on top of the world [Breakdown] And I know it's hard when you're fallin' 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 fallin' down And it's a long way up when you hit the ground Get up, now Get up Get up, now [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top the world, ay I'm on top of the world, ay Waitin' on this for a while now Payin' my dues to the dirt I've been waitin' to smile, ay Been holdin' it in for a while, ay Take it with me if I can Been dreamin' of this since a child I'm on top of the world
