[chorus]
Are the stars spelling out your name
As the hurting inside's keeping me sane?
Is the moon reflecting off your face?
Lighting up the fact that I'm stuck in this place
Do you feel free like the comets racing by
As the days left in life slowly rot and die?
Is the nights darkness an insight into your heart?
Is it situations like this when we know it's time to part?

And we sit on top of the world, hand-in-hand
This doesn't feel right; do you even know who I am?
I'm trying my best to understand what went wrong
But you're my world and I'm forever your girl

We're resting in space with our emotions flying free
Want to take you in my arms, want you to comfort me
Want you to feel the warmth I know that I can give to you
Want to make you feel forever all the things you make me do
Do I need a telescope to see what's deep inside your soul?
Or will you tell me that you love me, then together we'll grow gracefully old

[chorus]

Needing a tight grip, don't let go or I'll float away
There's no such thing as gravity and no such thing as day
Can you see that I'm not happy, can you see what's in my heart?
Can you see cleary enough or is night-time too dark?
I want to show you that I love you, but not like this
You deserve the universe not a heart fighting a blitz

[chorus]

And we sit on top of the world, hand-in-hand
This doesn't feel right; do you even know who I am?
I'm trying my best to understand what went wrong
But you're my world and I'm forever your girl

This world's a contradiction
Yeah our world's a contradiction
And life's a contradiction
Yeah our love's a contradiction
