UP ON THE ROOF
by Gerry Goffin & Carole King
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 in to 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 beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I get away from the hustling crowds
And all that rat race noise down in the street
On the roof`s the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Oh, 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 dad in the middle of town
I found a paradise that`s trouble proof
So if this world starts getting you down
there`s room enough for two up on the roof
Up on the roof
Everyhting`s all right
Up on the roof
Oh, come on baby
Up on the roof
Up on the roof
