INDIGO GIRLS - up on the roof lyrics

rate me

when this old world starts a 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 don't bother me

oh no

so when i come home feeling tired and beat

i go up where the air is fresh and sweet

and get far away from the hustling crowd

and all that rat race noise down in the street

on the roof that's 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 they put on a show for free

yes they do

and darling you can share it all with me

that's what i said i keep on telling you

that right smack dab in the middle of town

i found a paradise that's trouble free

and if this old world stars getting you down

there's room enough for two up on the roof

at night the stars they put on a show for free yeah

and darling you can share it all with me

that's what i said i keep on telling you

that right smack dab in the middle of town

i found a paradise that's trouble free

if this old world stars getting you down

there's room enough for two up on the roof

up on the roof oh yeah

up on the roof
