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 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 [Pre-Chorus] I take it in, but don't look down [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top of the world, hey I'm on top of the world, hey Waiting on this for a while now Paying my dues to the dirt I've been waiting to smile, hey Been holding it in for a while, hey Take you with me if I can Been dreaming of this since a child I'm on top of the world [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus] I take it in, but don't look down [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top of the world, hey I'm on top of the world, hey Waiting on this for a while now Paying my dues to the dirt I've been waiting to smile, hey Been holding it in for a while, hey Take you with me if I can Been dreaming of this since a child I'm on top of the world [Interlude] Oh-woah, oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-woah, oh-oh [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top of the world, hey I'm on top of the world, hey Waiting on this for a while now Paying my dues to the dirt I've been waiting to smile, hey Been holding it in for a while, hey Take you with me if I can Been dreaming of this since a child [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on top of the world, hey (And I know it's hard when you're falling down) I'm on top of the world, hey (And it's a long way up when you hit the ground) Waiting on this for a while now (Get up now, get up) Paying my dues to the dirt (Get up now) I've been waiting to smile, hey (And I know it's hard when you're falling down) Been holding it in for a while, hey (And it's a long way up when you hit the ground) Take you with me if I can (Get up now, get up) Been dreaming of this since a child (Get up, now) I'm on top of the world
