Up On The Roof

Up On The Roof - James Taylor (詹姆斯·泰勒)

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 don't bother me no no

So when I come home feeling tired and beat

I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet

I'll get far away from the hustling crowd

And all that rat-race noise down in the street

On the roof that's the only place I know

Look at the city baby

Where you just have to wish to make it so

Let's go up on the roof

And at night the stars they put on a show for free

And darling you can share it all with me

That's what I said keep on telling you

That right smack dab in the middle of town

I found a paradise that's trouble proof

And if this old world starts a getting you down

There's room enough for two up on the roof

Up on the roof up on a roof

Oh now

Everything is alright everything is alright

Come on

But so do enter the night and climb up the stairs

We can see

We got the stars above and the city lights below

Up on the roof now
