I was prowling in the dark    It was a game of chance i played    Thought i had the vital spark    Tired out i was in this cascade       When truth began to dawn on me    Backing the wrong horse one decade    On floating ice so endlessly    A tug-of-war in this grand charade       See how the land lies    Welcome the sunrise    Farewell to the disguise    Mark my words and never say die       On top of the world    On the edge of sheer heaven    Believe in this red-letter-day    Life comes to light    By no means it ain't over    The flowering time has begun    (you'll be there)    You'll be on top of the world       Nothing venture, nothing have    Clearing the figments of the mind    Never walking this way half    Beating the air and one eyed blind       Redress the balance    Come take this mere chance    Fall into this romance    The scale will fall from your eyes       Wild horses won't drag me back on the track    Cause i've got the hang of it now    A flash in the pain    As sound as a bell    The odds are in my favour now       Top of the world uh-uh-uh-uh    Heaven is here sheer heaven is here    Why not believe so will you believe    This glory day we're on top    Top of the world so we are on top    Heaven is here so heaven is here    Why not believe and when life comes to light    You'll be there you'll be on top of the world    Top of the world
