Make up your own apology
And match it with my sympathy
I know you wont get very far
I know you wont get very far
('Cause I can see it in your eyes)
What heaven knows my faith could never bring
I know its all you've tried to hide
'Cause I can see it in your eyes
I'm on top of the world
Standing without you
I've never had the strength before
Not a care in the world
I can see a place
That was before you met me
You could have had more deceny
But I'll spare you your dignity
I know you only go so far
(I know that you only go so far)
'Cause I can see it in your eyes
What heaven knows my faith could never bring
I know its all you've tried to hide
'Cause I can see it in your eyes
I'm on top of the world
Standing without you
I've never had the strength before
Not a care in the world
I can see a place
That was before you and me
There were those times we tried
There was that look in your eyes
That told me you could be the one
But for now I'm right back
At the place before you and
I'm on top of the world
Standing without you
I've never had the strength before
Not a care in the world
I can see a place
That was before you and
I'm on top of the world
Standing without you
I've never had the strength before
Not a care in the world
I can see a place
That was before
You changed me *
