Up on the Roof Songtext
von Robson & Jerome

(Up on the roof)

When this old world
Starts getting me down
And people are just
Too much for me to face
(Up on the roof)
I climb way up
To the top of the stairs
And all my cares
Just drift right into space
(Up on the roof)

On the roof
It′s peaceful as can be
And there, the world below
Can't bother me
Let me tell you now


When I come home
Feeling tired and beat
I go up where the air
Is fresh and sweet
(Up on the roof)
I get away from the hustling crowds
And all that rat race noise
Down in the street
(Up on the roof)

On the roof′s the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof
(Up on the roof)

At night, the stars put on a show for free
And, darling, you can share it all with me
I keep-a tellin' you

Right smack-dab
In the middle of town
I found a paradise
That′s trouble-proof
(Up on the roof)

And if this world
Starts getting you down
There′s room enough for two
Up on the roof
(Up on the roof)


Up on the roof
(Up on the roof)
Come on, baby
(Up on the roof)
Oh, come on, girl
(Up on the roof)
Come on, girl
(Up on the roof)
Come on, girl
(Up on the roof)
