Top of the World

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1: Karen Carpenter] Such a feeling's coming over me There is wonder in most everything I see Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes And I won't be surprised if it's a dream [Verse 2: Karen Carpenter] Everything I want the world to be Is now coming true especially for me And the reason is clear, it's because you are here You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen [Chorus: Karen Carpenter & Richard Carpenter, Karen Carpenter] I'm on the top of the world, looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world [Verse 3: Karen Carpenter] Something in the wind has learned my name And it's tellin' me that things are not the same In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze There's a pleasing sense of happiness for me [Verse 4: Karen Carpenter] There is only one wish on my mind When this day is through, I hope that I will find That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me All I need will be mine if you are here [Chorus: Karen Carpenter & Richard Carpenter, Karen Carpenter] I'm on the top of the world, looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world I'm on the top of the world, looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world
