Top of the City

One more step to the top of the city Where just a couple of pigeons are living Up on the angels shoulders I dont know if Im closer to heaven but It looks like hell down there These streets have never been paved with gold Welcome to the loneliest city in the world Its no good for you baby Its no good for you now Keep looking up for the ladder I dont know if youll love me for it But I dont think we should suffer this Theres 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 angels shoulders See how that building there is nearly built Theres 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 Shes no good for you baby Shes no good for you now Look Im here with the ladder I dont know if you love me or not But I dont think we should ever suffer Theres 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 angels shoulders And I dont mind if its dangerous I dont mind if its raining Take me up to the top of the city And put me up on the angels shoulders 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 angels shoulders
