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 river
You can have it all but life keeps movin´

Now take it in but don´t look down!

I´m on top of 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 you with me if I can
Been dreaming of this since a child
I´m on top of the world!

I´ve tried to cut these corners
Tried to take the easy way out
I kept on fallin´ short of somethin´
I could have gave up then but
Then again I couldn´t have ´cause
I´ve traveled all this way for somethin´

I take it in but don´t look down!

I´m on top of 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 you with me if I can
Been dreaming of this since a child
I´m on top of the world!

Oh...woah...oh oh, oh
(I´m on top of the world)
Oh...woah...oh oh

I´m on top of 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 you with me if I can
I´m on top of the world!

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
(I´m on top of the world)
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

I´m on top of 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 you with me if I can
Been dreamin´ of this since a child

I´M ON TOP OF THE WORLD!
