I'm living in an apartment   Never have before   And it feels a bit strange living up here on the seventh floor      In the city where I come from   We always lived in a house      But now I've got people over me, under me      I'm living with my lover   We've only got two rooms   And I'm working at a day job   While I decide what I really wanna do      I remember back in high school   Everyone was the same      But now I've got people over me, under me      Climb, climb, climb up the stairs   Everybody climb up the stairs   Everybody up the emergency exit   Everybody wants the view from way up there      I'm living for the present   I'm living day to day   I don't have a trust fund   I don't feel the need to superannuate      And when I'm feeling down, down, down   I end up in your arms      And your love washes over me, under me   Lover, please don't get over me
