Sitting On The Roof Of The World

I climbed a mountain Not knowing that I had
Thought it was just a road from a to b
I took no protection Not much of anything
Just went as I was

Looking in windows And playing songs
And knocking on doors
I was not scared I just enjoyed the sights
Kept myself to myself

There I was
Sitting on the roof of the world
There I was There I was
Not knowing how I got there Or how to leave

Everyone says I was lucky to have got there
As not many can
But truth be told I was saved
By the love Of a good man

Who came and got me And brought me down
From on up there
I'd be lying if I didn't say I missed it now and then
But I have no wish to go back there

There I was
Sitting on the roof of the world
There I was With all the gods
Not knowing how I got there Or how to leave

People say What's so special about being back here
With everyone so close
But that's the point I don't want to be different
I just want to fit in

There I was There I was
Sitting on the roof of the world
There I was With all the gods
Not knowing how I got there Or how to leave

Not knowing how I got there Or how to leave
Not knowing how I got there Or how to leave
