On Top of the World

[Verse 1] 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 a time is left for you I've had the highest mountains I've had the deepest rivers You can have it all but life keeps moving Now take it in but don't look down [Chorus] Cause I'm top of the world, ay I'm on top of the world, ay 'Waiting for this for a while now Paying my dues to the dirt I've been waiting to smile, ay Been holding it in for awhile, ay Take it with me if I can Been dreaming of this since a child I'm on top of the world [Verse 2] I've tried to cut these corners Try to take the easy way out I kept on falling short of something I could've gave up then, but Then again I couldn't have, cause I've traveled all this way for something Now take it in but don't look down [Chorus x2] [Bridge] And I know it's hard when you're falling down And it's a long way up when you hit the ground But get up now, get up, get up now (x2) [Chorus]
