On Top Of The World
Daniel. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is wonder in 'most every thing I see
Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes
And I won't be surprised if it's a dream
Everything I want the world to be
Is now comin' true especially for me
And the reason is clear, it's because you are here
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
Somethin' in the wind has learned my name
And it's tellin' me that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
There's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me
There is only one wish on my mind
When this day is through I hope that I will find
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
All I need will be mine if you are here
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
The opening lyrics of the song "Top of the World" by Daniel express a sense of euphoria and wonder that the singer is experiencing. He is enveloped in a feeling of happiness and contentment - almost as if he's living in a dream. He describes the world around him as being wonderful, with "not a cloud in the sky" and the "sun in his eyes." These sensations heighten his appreciation for the world he is in and the people around him, who make it so special.
The second stanza reveals that the reason for the singer's happiness is a person, who he claims is the closest thing to heaven that he has ever seen. This individual has brought all of the joy and love into his life that he is now experiencing. The chorus repeats the phrase "I'm on the top of the world" as a way to emphasize his current sense of elation.
The final stanza speaks to a desire for this happiness to continue. The singer wants tomorrow to be just like today, with this special person by his side. The song concludes with a final statement that their love has put him at the top of the world, implying that the love they share is the true source of his happiness.
