In the shadow of the city
When the days have disappeared
Some might say it's sorta gritty
Full of faces to be feared

But there are wonders that are waiting
Underneath the midnight sky
We got the stars illuminating
It's a place for you and I
A little space for you and I

At the top of the world tonight
Where no one ever has to hide
At the top of the world tonight
You're sitting safe and starry-eyed
There is treasure you can find
And something someone left behind
At the top of the world tonight
It can stay this way, at least until the morning light

Through the darkness someone's singing
Like an old familiar song
Like you fell into a melody that's bringing you
Right here where you can belong

And there are wonders that are waiting
Underneath the midnight sky
And by the stars, we're navigating
To a place for you and I

At the top of the world tonight
Where no one ever has to hide
At the top of the world tonight
You're sitting safe and starry-eyed
There is treasure you can find
And something someone left behind
At the top of the world tonight
It can stay this way, at least until the morning light

At the top of the world
The top of the world
The top of the world tonight
