Оригинален текст
When this old world starts gettin' me down
and people are just too much for me to face
i climb right up to the top of the stairs
and all my cares just drift right into space.
Chorus:
on the roof as peaceful as can be
and there the world below can't bother me.
Let me tell you now...
when i come home feelin' tired and beat
i go up where the air is fresh and sweet
i get away from the hustlin' crowd
and all the rat-race noise down in the street.
Chorus
on the roof's the the only place i know
where you just have to wish to make it so.
(lets go up on the roof)
Bridge
at night the stars
put on a show for free,
and darling, you can
share it all with me.
Let me tell you now...
when i come home feelin' tired and beat
i go up where the air is fresh and sweet
i get away from the hustlin' crowd
and all the rat-race noise down in the street.
Up on the roof
up on the roof
up on the roof
