Marshall Altman - Top of the World lyrics

[1st Verse] Out of the corner of my tired eyes I'm not surprised, it's now a quarter past too late Nothing new, it's no case out of the ordinary I'm so very wrapped around your finger this time Oh, won't you give me awhile to unwind? [Chorus] You're on top of the world And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse You say that love's tough, are you sure? Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool? You're on top of the world And if you're thinking I've been blinking While you're breaking the rules, don't that make you the fool? You're on top of the world You're sitting on top of the world [2nd Verse] You're like a splinter you're just k**ing me slowly from inside The piercing winter is so much more inviting than the stare in your eyes One heavy cinder block, like a rock You're just staying, weighing, breaking me down I'm crying out, you don't hear a sound, whoa [Chorus] You're on top of the world And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse You say that love's tough, are you sure? Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool? You're on top of the world And if you're thinking I've been blinking While you're breaking the rules, don't that make you the fool? You're on top of the world You're on top of the world [Bridge] Hope I've lost enough to win you back your prize To put you up sky high, and get your pride back to its familiar place And I hope it's cost enough of my dear, precious time To lift your spirits, spark your smile, oh yeah [Chorus] You're on top of the world And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse, and You say that love's tough, are you sure? Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool? You're on top of the world If you're thinking I've been blinking While you're breaking the rules, don't that make you the fool? Oh, oh, no, now, now, now [Chorus] You're on top of the world And I'm just waiting, making up your excuse You say that love's tough, are you sure? Ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool? You're on top of the world If you're thinking I've been blinking While you're breaking the rules, don't that make you the fool? Oh, oh, oh, oh don't that make you the fool? You're on top of the world [Outro] You're sitting on top of the world, oh, oh, oh, oh You're on top of the world, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah You're on top of the world, yeah, yeah, yeah, yea
