When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
Well, I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space, up on the roof
On the roof's as peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
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, up on the roof, 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 dab in the middle of town
I found a paradise that's trouble proof, up on the roof
So 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
