Top of the City - Director's Cut
One more step to the top of the city
Where just a couple of pigeons are living
Up on the angel's shoulders
I don't know if I'm closer to Heaven but
It's like Hell down there
These streets have never been paved with gold
Welcome to the loneliest city in the world
Oh, baby
It's no good for you now
Keep looking up for the ladder
I don't know if you'll love me for it
I don't think we should suffer this
There's just one thing we can do about it
Take me up to the top of the city
Take me up to the top of the city
Take me up to the top of the city
And put me up on the angel's shoulders
See how that building there is nearly built
There's a big fire over on the north of the city
I see you walking down the street with her
I see your lights going on and off
No, baby
She's no good for you now
Look I'm here with the ladder
And I don't know if you love me or not
But I don't think we should ever suffer
There's just one thing we can do about it
Take me up to the top of the city
Oh, take me up to the top of the city
Right up to the highest point of the city
Just keep going up to the top of the city
I don't mind if it's dangerous
I don't mind if it's raining
Take me up to the top of the city
And put me up on the angel's shoulders
Oh, take me up to the top of the city
Mmm yes, one more step to the top of the city
And put me up on the angel's shoulders
Where just a couple of pigeons are living
Up on the angel's shoulders
I don't know if I'm closer to Heaven but
It's like Hell down there
These streets have never been paved with gold
Welcome to the loneliest city in the world
Oh, baby
It's no good for you now
Keep looking up for the ladder
I don't know if you'll love me for it
I don't think we should suffer this
There's just one thing we can do about it
Take me up to the top of the city
Take me up to the top of the city
Take me up to the top of the city
And put me up on the angel's shoulders
See how that building there is nearly built
There's a big fire over on the north of the city
I see you walking down the street with her
I see your lights going on and off
No, baby
She's no good for you now
Look I'm here with the ladder
And I don't know if you love me or not
But I don't think we should ever suffer
There's just one thing we can do about it
Take me up to the top of the city
Oh, take me up to the top of the city
Right up to the highest point of the city
Just keep going up to the top of the city
I don't mind if it's dangerous
I don't mind if it's raining
Take me up to the top of the city
And put me up on the angel's shoulders
Oh, take me up to the top of the city
Mmm yes, one more step to the top of the city
And put me up on the angel's shoulders
