When You're on Top
The Wallflowers
I need a bed that nobody's slept in
I need some air nobody's been breathing
I need a thought that I can believe in
Is this fog or is the building really burning
I need you now much more than ever
I'm making new friends but none of them matter
Maybe now we don't fit together
But you've got your arms around no one but strangers
I feel fine with the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair, I'm falling out of this sky
I'm doing better than I thought I would
But nothing's ever as good as when you're on top
I want to wake up and just start running
Into a ditch or straight up a mountain
I want to get where no one been gettin'
Make it deeper than hell or make it higher than heaven
I need someone whose price hasn't been met
When everybody's disappearing by the minute
There isn't anyone left I haven't meet yet
Well I remember when they hadn't gotten to you yet
I feel fine with the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair, I'm falling out of this sky
I'm doing better than I thought I would
But nothing's ever as good as when you're on top
I feel fine with the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair, I'm falling out of this sky
I'm doing better than I thought I would
But nothing's ever as good as when you're on top, when you're on top
Well half way up and over this rainbow
I heard a shot fire up from the ghetto
As I drop I didn't think you'd follow
Just didn't know the sky was this shallow
I need a garden where nothing's forbidden
I need an apple that no one's been eatin'
I want to start again back at the beginnin'
I had a vision that this feeling maybe has an ending
I feel fine with the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair, I'm falling out of this sky
I'm doing better than I thought I would
But nothing's ever as good as when you're on top
I feel fine with the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair, I'm falling out of this sky
I'm doing better than I thought I would
But nothing's ever as good as when you're on top, when you're on top
I need you now, much more than ever
I want to start again back at the beginnin'
I feel fine with the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair, I'm falling out of this sky
I'm doing better than I thought I would
But nothing's ever as good as when you're on top
I feel fine with the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair, I'm falling out of this sky
I'm doing better than I thought I would
But nothing's ever as good as when you're on top
