Up on the Roof

When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right in to space

On the roof it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me

Let me tell you now
When I come home feeling tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet, up on the roof
I get away from the hustling crowds
And all that rat race noise down in the street, up on the roof

On the roof's the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof

At night the stars put on a show for free
And darling, you can share it all with me

I keep a-telling you
Right smack down in the middle of town
I found a paradise that's trouble proof, up on the roof
And if this world starts getting you down
There's room enough for two up on the roof, up on the roof

Up on the roof, up on the roof, up on the roof, oh baby
Up on the roof, up on the roof, up on the roof
Up on the roof, up on the roof, up on the roof
Up on the roof, up on the roof, up on the roof
