Top Of The World Lyrics
Such a feelin's comin' 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
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
I'm on the top of the world lookin' 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
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 pleasin' sense of happiness for me
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
I'm on the top of the world lookin' 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
When I think of happy, I think of this song.
I. JUST. CAN'T. BELIEVE. IT.
This website has been up for more than 20 years. This song is more than 50 years old... It's one of Carpenters' signature songs... and it has only one comment!
ONE!
It's innocent, it's cheesy and is another song that screams love to the wind. But it's perfect. And while their lyrics convey no secret and no hidden meaning at all, I have never came across a more perfect description of the feeling of being in love. Passing through a plethora of heavenly metaphors and references to nature it captures with universal grasp, as Elton John put it, how wonderful life is once you and your loved one share the world.
