Top of the World - Wishbone Ash

Living in the shadow of darkness

And wondering why

Knowing that there but for fortune

Go you and I

Temptation has turned you

And twisted the knife

The world that we bought into

Is no longer mine

Love lost, you pay the cost of a lonely way —

This time you chose to go too far

How does it feel to be on top of the world?

Looking around, you see the ground below

How does it feel to be on top of the world?

Living a life that only you can know

Say goodbye to the old days

They’re over and gone

Facing up to the realization

That we’ve got to move on

This love and attraction

Has taken its toll

Your lies and illusions

Left me out in the cold

Love lost, you pay the cost of a lonely way —

This time you chose to go too far

How does it feel…
