Top Of The World
dawn comes and you're up
you drink a fast cup
don't keep them waiting
all systems are go
far down below
morning is breaking
and you're ready
you know the routine
you suit up and
you board your machine
as all over the world
eyes are glued
to the video screen
there's a hole in the clouds
when you look up tonight
a window that beckons you
toward the moonlight
the tower counts down
and the moment is right
you take a deep breath
but you're chest still goes tight
alone
at the top of the world
day turns into night
turns back to day
twice on the hour
but you're far from it now
light-years away
thin stream of power
rumbling under your feet
eagle leaps up from the concrete
as the lines fly away
as the pad crumbles under the heat
there's a hole in the clouds
when you look up tonight
a window that beckons you
toward the moonlight
the tower counts down
and the moment is right
you take a deep breath
but you're chest still goes tight
alone
at the top of the world
(hole in the cloud)
(window that beckons you)
there's a hole in the clouds
when you look up tonight
a window that beckons you
toward the moonlight
the tower counts down
and the moment is right
you take a deep breath
but you're chest still goes tight
alone
at the top of the world
