rock ballad for the broken hearted.
Solo Status
This band is lonesome.
Story behind the song
We were just jamming and this came out.
Lyrics
v1
I can't let you walk out that door
and I can't help but lie here on the floor
standing on top of the world
but I'm standing on the top of the world
This feeling inside, can't take it no more
the thunder gets louder as the rain starts to pour
Standing at the top of the world
but I'm standing at the top of the world
(Chorus)
And now I know that you're gone
Everyone else seems to be moving on
and now I know that you'll never come
You'll come back down, back down to me
and now I know that you're gone
everyone else seems to be moving on, moving on
v2
My whole heart's ripped, bleeding, and torn
Poisoning my body, every rose has it's thorn
standing at the top of the world
and I'm standing on the top of the world
This feeling inside, can't take it no more
the thunder gets louder as the rain starts to pour
Standing at the top of the world
and I'm standing at the top of the world
Chorus 2
and now I'm free, or so it seems
Your beautiful face, still wish that I could see
So why did you leave? now all alone
baby please just come back home, come back home
Chorus outro
and now I'm here standing at the top
from a distance I can only watch
so when when I see you all over again
all these feelings come seeping in
and now I know that you're free
I just wish that it could be with me
and now I know that we'll never be
I can't stand what you led me to believe
