Chris MacAlister - Top of the World Lyrics

She emerged from the ashes of a four letter word
Spoken so often but were never heard
It's time now she feels
As she drops to her knees and prays

But she know's the answer in within herself
Pulls herself together, not asking for help
A set back's a set back
It can't stop you getting your way

Try to see what is best for me
My new life is starting today
If I can't be relied on, who can I rely on?
If this is some game then let's play!

Hey!, They say, Just walk away
As we're standing on top of the world in the rain
But then Hey!, We say, Don't walk away
'Cause the party's just starting so come out and play with us now
In the light, say goodbye to the dark of the night
So listen up, Hey!, Stay, Don't walk away
As we're standing on the top of the world naked without the rain

He emerged from the ashes of a fallen down world
A place filled with anger where insults are hurled
He sits and reflects on a life that has now passed away
And he's sitting there grinning, in spite of himself
Feels he should be crying but then would it help
And in the confusion he looks at things a new way

Try to see this is best for me
My new life is starting today
So it may take some time, and a few minor crimes
But things could be looking my way

Hey!, They say, Just walk away
As we're standing on top of the world in the rain
But then Hey!, We say, Don't walk away
'Cause the party's just starting so come out and play with us now
In the light, say goodbye to the dark of the night
So listen up, Hey!, Stay, Don't walk away
As we're standing on the top of the world naked without the rain

Try to see what is best for me
My new life is starting today
If I can't be relied on, who can I rely on?
If this is some game then let's play!

Hey!, They say, Just walk away
As we're standing on top of the world in the rain
But then Hey!, We say, Don't walk away
'Cause the party's just starting so come out and play with us now
In the light, say goodbye to the dark of the night
So listen up, Hey!, Stay, Don't walk away
As we're standing on the top of the world naked without the rain
Hey!, Stay, Don't walk away
As we're standing on the top of the world naked without the rain
