Top Of The World

Song byCarpenters

in AlbumWeve Only Just Begun

Such a feelin's comin' over me

There is wonder in most everything I see

Not a cloud in the sky

Got the sun in my eyes

And I won't be surprised if it's a dream.

Everything I want the world to be

Is now coming true especially for me

And the reason is clear

It's because you are here

You're the nearest thing to heaven

that I've seen.

I'm on the top of the world lookin'

down on creation

And the only explanation I can find

Is the love that I've found ever since

you've been around

Your love's put me at the top of the world.

Something in the wind has learned my name

And it's tellin' me that things are not the same

In the leaves on the trees and the touch

of the breeze

There's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me.

There is only one wish on my mind

When this day is through I hope

that I will find

That tomorrow will be just the same

for you and me

All I need will be mine if you are here.

I'm on the top of the world lookin'

down on creation

And the only explanation I can find

Is the love that I've found ever since

you've been around

Your love's put me at the top of the world.

( 1972 )
