Kate Bush Top Of The City Lyrics

Top Of The City Lyrics

One more step to the top of the city 
Where just a couple of pigeons are living 
Up on the angel`s shoulders

I don`t know if I`m 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 
It`s no good for you baby 
It`s no good for you now 
Keep looking up for the ladder

I don`t know if you`ll love me for it 
But I don`t think we should suffer this 
There`s 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 angel`s shoulders

See how that building there is nearly built 
There`s 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 
She`s no good for you baby 
She`s no good for you now 
Look I`m here with the ladder

I don`t know if you love me or not 
But I don`t think we should ever suffer 
There`s 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 angel`s shoulders

And I don`t mind if it`s dangerous 
I don`t mind if it`s raining 
Take me up to the top of the city

And put me up on the angel`s 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 angel`s shoulders
