Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

I can see everything tonight

I got a room where everyone

Can have a drink and forget those things

That went wrong in their life

[Verse 2]

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

And I ain't coming down, I ain't coming down

[Verse 3]

I got someone who loves me tonight

I got over a thousand dollars in the bank and I'm alright

Look deep in the eyes of love, look deep in the eyes of love

And find out what you were looking for

[Verse 4]

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

And I ain't coming down, no

I ain't coming down (Yeah)

[Verse 5]

I wish I could feel you tonight, little one

You're so far away

I want to reach out and touch your heart

[Verse 6]

Yeah, like they do in those things on TV, I love you

Please love me, I'm not so bad

And I love you so

[Verse 7]

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

I got a room at the top of the world tonight

And I ain't coming down, no

I ain't coming down, no

I ain't coming down
