In the shadow of the city
When the days have disappeared
Some might say it's sorta gritty
Full of faces to be feared
But there are wonders that are waiting
Underneath the midnight sky
We got the stars illuminating
It's a place for a you and I
A little space for a you and I
At the top of the world tonight
Where no one ever has to hide
At the top of the world tonight
You're sittin' safe and starry-eyed
There is treasure you can find
In somethin' someone left behind
At the top of the world tonight
It can stay this way, at least until the mornin' light
Through the dark, there's someone's singin'
Like an old familiar song
Like you fell into a melody that's bringin'
You right here where you can belong
And, there are wonders that are waiting
Underneath the midnight sky and
By the stars we're navigating
To a place for a you and I
At the top of the world tonight
Where no one ever has to hide
At the top of the world tonight
You're sittin' safe and starry-eyed
There is treasure you can find
In somethin' someone left behind
At the top of the world tonight
It can stay this way, at least until the mornin' light
At the top of the world, the top of the world
The top of the world tonight
