Top of the City

One more step to the top of the city
 Where just a couple of pigeons are livin'
 Up on the angel's shoulders
 (Ooh, aah)
 (Ooh, aah)
 I don't know if I'm closer to Heaven but
 (Ooh, aah)
 It looks like Hell down there
 (Ooh, aah)
 These streets have never been paved with gold
 (Ooh, aah)
 Welcome to the loneliest city in the world
 It's no good for you, baby
 It's no good for you, now
 Keep lookin' up for the ladder
 I don't know if you'll love me for it
 But 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
 Put me up on the angel's shoulders
 (Ooh, aah)(Ooh, aah)
 See how that buildin' there is nearly built
 (Ooh, aah)
 There's a big fire over on the north of the city
 (Ooh, aah)
 I see you walkin' down the street with her
 (Ooh, aah)
 I see your lights goin' on and off
 She's no good for you, baby
 She's no good for you, now
 Look, I'm here with the ladder
 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 this
 Take me up to the top of the city
 Take me up to the top of the city
 Up to the highest point of the city
 One more step to the top of the city
 Put me up on the angel's shoulders
 I don't mind if it's dangerous
 I don't mind if it's rainin'
 Take me up to the top of the city
 And put me up on the angel's shoulders
 Take me up to the top of the city
 Mmm yes, one more step to the top of the city
 An' put me up on the angel's shoulders
 (Ooh, aah)
 (Ooh, aah)
 (Ooh, aah)
