On Top of the World

Intro

oh-oh, hey-ya, ah-ah

(la la la) we go up

Verse

Woke up with the sun like a ribbon on my skin

Mirror says I'm glowing, but the best light's from within

Stepped onto the stage and the world took a spin

Crowns in every heartbeat, can't tell where I end and you begin

Pre-chorus

Soft confetti falling (falling), every name I hear

Hands in the front row, singing close and clear

This is the kind of magic you only read about

But I'm living it, breathing it, can't bring me down

Chorus

On top of the world, like dreaming, like dreaming

On top of the world, your voices keep me breathing (oh-oh)

Fame on my jacket, love in my hands, whoa

You lift me higher, we fly, we glow

On top of the world, like dreaming, like dreaming

On top of the world, your heartbeat next to mine (yeah, yeah)

Verse

Flash of cameras, but it's your eyes that stay

Lyrics on my lips because of what you say

Late nights and cold coffee turned into flame

Now every step's a chorus that sings out your name

Pre-chorus

Messages at midnight (midnight), ribbons in the mail

Postcards from the rooftops, every story we unveil

This is the kind of wonder that wakes me every day

I wear it like a promise, and I'm never giving way

Chorus

On top of the world, like dreaming, like dreaming

On top of the world, your voices keep me breathing (oh-oh)

Fame on my jacket, love in my hands, whoa

You lift me higher, we fly, we glow

On top of the world, like dreaming, like dreaming

On top of the world, your heartbeat next to mine (yeah, yeah)

Bridge

(da-da-da) we built this ladder out of songs

(he-yah) every night we prove them wrong

Ki-ki-keep the lights, ta-ta-touch the sky

Na-na-now we're living lines from a lullaby

Say my name, I say yours (say it), louder, louder, let it run

We are the chorus and the crowd, and the moon is just for fun

Chorus

On top of the world, like dreaming, like dreaming

On top of the world, your voices keep me breathing (oh-oh)

Fame on my jacket, love in my hands, whoa

You lift me higher, we fly, we glow

On top of the world, like dreaming, like dreaming

On top of the world, your heartbeat next to mine (yeah, yeah)

On top of the world, like dreaming, like dreaming

On top of the world, we shine, we shine, we shine
