Waiting, watching Listening to every little sign I see You are so bright, shining above all the city lights You know, it's right when all of the stars in the sky align If you and I, we are together as one tonight So get up, stand up What you waiting for? Let's go, jump in We gotta live life, give in to being We've got a love like no one knows Now I'm with you Now I'm with you Now I'm with you Sitting on top, sitting on top of the world Saved me from me, gave me everything I need You'll be forever in my heart So get up, stand up What you waiting for? Let's go, jump in We gotta live life, give in to being We've got a love like no one knows Now I'm with you Now I'm with you Now I'm with you Sitting on top, sitting on top of the world All is quiet at night We say only things for us to hear So get up, stand up What you waiting for? Let's go, jump in We gotta live life, give in to being We've got a love like no one knows Now I'm with you Now I'm with you Now I'm with you Sitting on top, sitting on top of the world Sitting on top, sitting on top of the world Sitting on top, sitting on top of the world
