First flight I see your silhouette
And cracked panes on the wall
Perfect imperfections make me step faster
I get the shivers
Thinking what's behind the stickers on your door
The anticipation makes me feel lighter
Waited so long waited so long
To see you
Get a move on get a move on
Waited so long waited so long
I need to
Get you alone
Sitting on top of the world
Only took 64 steps to heaven
To get me to where you were
In your 8 story walkup
In your 8 story walkup
And I walk it up
I hear your voice and echoes made from the soles of my shoes
I'm in this midtown red brick low rise with the slanted staircase
Waited so long waited so long
To see you
Get a move on get a move on
Waited so long waited so long
I need to
Get you alone
Sitting on top of the world
Only took 64 steps to heaven
To get me to where you were
In your 8 story walkup
In your 8 story walkup
And I walk it up
I walk it up
Arms and lips and notes and
Feeling every moment
We'll cause a commotion
When I get there
And I'm
Sitting on top of the world
Only took 64 steps to heaven
To get me to where you were
In your 8 story walkup
Sitting on top of the world
Only took 64 steps to heaven
To get me to where you were
In your 8 story walkup
In your 8 story walkup
And I walk it up
