Up On The Roof

In the style of

The Drifters

Lyrics

when this old world
starts getting
me down
and people are
just too much
for me to face

i climb way up
to the top
of the stairs
and all my cares
just drift
right into space

on the roof it's
peaceful as can be
and there the world
below can't
bother me

let me tell you now
when i come home
feelin' tired and weak
i go up where
the air is
fresh and sweet

i get away from
the hustling crowd
and all that
rat race noise
down in the street

on the roof the
only place i know
where you just have
to wish to make it so
let's go 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

and if this world
starts getting
you down
there's room enough
for two
up on the roof

up on the roof
oh come on baby
oh come on honey
everything is alright
