I am shattered, stranded from love Suspended out over the eternal blue No ladder, no rope to my hand There isn't anything that I can do (But) Oh, the power of pure Love To pick me up and turn me around I've found the feel of solid ground (now I'm) Chorus: Standing on top of the world Standing on top of the world It's left me so high Lifted by the power of love Been feeling vacant, like there's nobody home The lights are burning but I'm all alone
Like a paper, blown around by the wind Can't even see where I'm going (But) Oh, the power of pure love To lead me on and into the sky And when I opened my eyes (I was) (Chorus) I could only make a may-day The beat of a heart in a lonely world Till He sent love, sent it my way I'm no longer alone Standing on top of the world Oh the power of pure love To lead me on and into the sky And when I opened my eyes (I was) (Chorus) (Chorus)
