Do you remember our best adventure?
Stealing off to climb Westers Hill?
Creeping out of our house at midnight?
Do you remember on the way down after
I cut my leg right open on that fence?
And I cried and I cried
It was just a hill we climbed
That night, but it felt like
The top of the world
"Top of the world, ma!"
Top of the world
I'm on top of the world
"Our teachers had faith in their lessons, their doctrine
But these facts are unreliable, these cracks are undeniable"
Undeniable
You said
"Do you feel the warmth beneath your feet?
That's 'cause the earth is so very old
They should have warned us years ago
We should have been told that secret kept
By mum and dad, which covered everything
"At first it's dark, and then it's light, and then it's dark again"
"You're bleeding, but it's alright
'Cause we'll stay awake the whole night
'Cause I found a rock in an ancient place
And it's older than the human race
So let's build a fire, a homing light
For astronauts and satellites
For scientists with soldier's hearts
And pioneers of earthly arts (yeah)
You and me, we're dead in the blink of an eye
We've been and gone
We're dead in a blink of the earth's eye"
Stealing off to climb Westers Hill?
Creeping out of our house at midnight?
Do you remember on the way down after
I cut my leg right open on that fence?
And I cried and I cried
It was just a hill we climbed
That night, but it felt like
The top of the world
"Top of the world, ma!"
Top of the world
I'm on top of the world
"Our teachers had faith in their lessons, their doctrine
But these facts are unreliable, these cracks are undeniable"
Undeniable
You said

You and me, we're dead in the blink of an eye
We've been and gone
We're dead in a blink of the earth's eye"
