Lyrics and Music by Daniel Reynolds, Benjamin McKee, Daniel Sermon, Alexander Grant

If you love somebody,
Better tell them while they’re here, ’cause
They just may run away from you.

You’ll never know quite when; well,
Then again, it just depends on
How long a time is left for you.

I’ve had the highest mountains;
I’ve had the deepest rivers;
You can have it all, but life keeps moving.

   I take it in but don’t look down.

Chorus:
     ’Cause I’m on top of the world, eh!
     I’m on top of the world, eh!
     Been waiting on this for a while now,
     Paying my dues to the dirt.
     I’ve been waiting to smile, eh!
     Been holding it in for a while, eh!
     Take you with me if I can.
     Been dreaming of this since a child.
     I’m on top of the world.

I’ve tried to cut these corners,
Tried to take the easy way out.
I kept on falling short of something.

I could have gave up then, but
Then again I couldn’t have, ’cause
I’ve traveled all this way for something.

   I take it in but don’t look down.

Chorus:
     ’Cause I’m on top of the world, eh!
     I’m on top of the world, eh!
     Been waiting on this for a while now,
     Paying my dues to the dirt.
     I’ve been waiting to smile, eh!
     Been holding it in for a while, eh!
     Take you with me if I can.
     Been dreaming of this since a child.
     I’m on top of the world. Oh…

     ’Cause I’m on top of the world, eh!
     I’m on top of the world, eh!
     Been waiting on this for a while now,
     Paying my dues to the dirt.
     I’ve been waiting to smile, eh!
     Been holding it in for a while, eh!
     Take you with me if I can.
     Been dreaming of this since a child.

   And I know it’s hard
   When you’re falling down,
   And it’s a long way up
   When you make your round.
   But get up now, get up, get up now.

   And I know it’s hard
   When you’re falling down,
   And it’s a long way up
   When you make your round.
   But get up now, get up, get up now.

Chorus:
     ’Cause I’m on top of the world, eh!
     I’m on top of the world, eh!
     Been waiting on this for a while now,
     Paying my dues to the dirt.
     I’ve been waiting to smile, eh!
     Been holding it in for a while, eh!
     Take you with me if I can.
     Been dreaming of this since a child.
     I’m on top of the world.
