Lyrics
When this old world starts gettin' me down
and people are just too much for me to face
i climb right up to the top of the stairs
and all my cares just drift right into space.
on the roof as peaceful as can be
and there the world below can't bother me.
Let me tell you now...
when i come home feelin' tired and beat
i go up where the air is fresh and sweet
i get away from the hustlin' crowd
and all the rat-race noise down in the street.
on the roof's the the only place i know
where you just have to wish to make it so.
(lets go up on the roof)
Bridge
at night the stars
put on a show for free,
and darling, you can
share it all with me.
Let me tell you now...
when i come home feelin' tired and beat
i go up where the air is fresh and sweet
i get away from the hustlin' crowd
and all the rat-race noise down in the street.
Up on the roof
up on the roof
up on the roof
