Up on the Roof Lyrics
When this old world starts a getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
When I come home feeling tired and beat
I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I'll get away from the hustling crowd
That would and all that rat-race noise down in the street
On the roof, the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
At night the stars put on a show for free
Darling, you can share it all with me
Right smack dab in the middle of town
I found a paradise that's troubleproof
And if this world starts getting you down
There's room enough for two up on the roof
Up on the roof
And people are just too much for me to face
I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
And there the world below can't bother me
I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I'll get away from the hustling crowd
That would and all that rat-race noise down in the street
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Darling, you can share it all with me
I found a paradise that's troubleproof
And if this world starts getting you down
There's room enough for two up on the roof
Up on the roof
